Demonstration of the syllabus coherence with the UC intended learning outcomes

The essential contents of this course are unambiguously related to the Developmental Psychology and with the prospect of Carl Rogers on the active participation of the subject in the definition of his own life, from work on self-awareness (which later others will work and explore, Antonio Damasio, for example). These contents fall into the methodology that is intended to work - personal life project (PPV) and which will provide the technical future of social intervention tools that will be useful in the profession.

Teaching methodologies

It will use a methodology that actively fosters ownership of the UC content by students:

- Reading and discussion of short texts
- View some audiovisual documents
- Reading and analysis of life stories, detecting what their problems and what kind of work could do with the person
- Carrying out tasks related to the construction of the PPV
- Knowledge and application of a variety of techniques and instruments which are related to the construction of PPV
- Support for building the session students will perform in the PPV
- Conducting lesson summaries

Demonstration of the teaching methodologies coherence with the curricular unit's intended learning outcomes

The nature of UC requires an accurate relationship between the sharing of experiences (the subjects of the training or published reports) and theoretical-conceptual nature activities that give meaning and organize these experiences. This methodology allows switching space conceptual analysis but also emotional, giving rise to reflection on the "other" starting with "I" and the identification of critical elements in the development of a project life / transition. Thus, the methodologies chosen let you work the basic theoretical framework in its connection to the PPV construction methodology, encouraging students to discover and experience, first with them and between them and then rehearsing on the ground, in context, the methodology itself .
