Prerequisites
The subject is part of the mention called "Psychoeducational analysis and intervention". It is also highly recommended for students who want to take the mention "Psychosocial analysis and intervention". The subject is designed for the training of professionals who will work as psychologists in the psychosocial or educational field.
It is also recommended to enroll in the subject "Social Psychology for Analysis and Intervention".
Before enrolling, keep in mind that it is an annual subject, in ABP methodology and with practices at centres.
Objectives and Contextualisation
The aim of the course is the design, programming, analysis and evaluation of psychosocial and educational intervention processes, based on participation in practice contexts. It will reflect on the processes of detection of needs, planning, execution and evaluation of a project elaborated in group.
The practical component of this subject is key, so it will be based on field practice and we will follow the ABP methodology in the classroom to analyze their own practice and make proposals for psychosocial and educational intervention.
The teaching team will present and offer different alternatives for field practices.
In the classroom sessions, the practice itself will be analyzed and intervention proposals will be elaborated, which will then be applied to the practices at centers.
This subject involves participation in a Service Learning Project (ApS). These social engagement projects allow the student to be trained by participating in a project aimed at solving a real need in a community and thus improve people's living conditions or the quality of the environment (for more information http://pagines.uab.cat/aps).

Annual subject where the practice and analysis of this are key.
ABP methodology (classroom - 1 morning every 15 days):
Every 15 days we will work in the classroom in small groups to analyze the needs of the intervention context, design the intervention, implement it and evaluate its implementation.
Internships in centers (actual internships - 1 morning or afternoon (2h) per week):
An intervention context will be assigned in which you will be assisted weekly. To begin with, work will be done to access knowledge of the context and be able to carry out a needs analysis, and then be able to implement the intervention designed by the students themselves and evaluate it.
This methodology seeks to enable students to participate in the entire process of analysis, design, implementation and evaluation of the intervention.
Annotation: Within the schedule set by the centre or degree programme, 15 minutes of one class will be reserved for students to evaluate their lecturers and their courses or modules through questionnaires.

The student who has delivered evidences with a weight inferior to 40% will be considered NOT EVALUABLE.
As it is a subject with ABP methodology, the single assessment option is not considered.
