Content

The subject will be structured in 3 areas, according to the OM that regulates the master's degree:

Area 1: Adolescent development and learning (4 ECTS). The area provides psycho-pedagogical knowledge and focuses on two main aspects: the development of adolescence, and the learning processes in secondary education. It is based on the theoretical approaches of developmental psychology and educational psychology, to provide tools for secondary education.

Area 2: Educational processes and contexts (pedagogy area) (5 ECTS). The blog aims to deepen the knowledge of the context in which the educational function is carried out, where future teachers will have to intervene as well as understand the processes that make it up. The educational system, the close social context and the educational center are analyzed. The educational processes of teacher-student interaction in the classroom and in the institute are also analyzed. This area will also address two issues directly linked to professional practice: tutoring and attention to diversity.

Area 3: Society, family and education (sociology) (3 ECTS). The changes that have taken place in the social, family and educational spheres in recent years justify the need to address these issues. Therefore, insisting on the professional character, the knowledge related to the relations between environment and education, the role of the families in the education of the children and the relations between families and the school will be treated.
