Learning outcomes
The course focuses on theoretical, epistemological, methodological and educational issues, examining specific learning disabilities and children's language delay and impairments. The course aims to enhance the student’s ability to integrate theoretical knowledge with experience in order to design and implement intervention programs, based on the observation of a range of development profiles.
Specifically, the expected learning outcomes are as follows:
1) knowledge and understanding of the development of the learning processes of reading, writing and mathematics at school, with reference to the main theoretical models; knowledge and understanding of the principal classifications and characteristics of learning difficulties and disabilities; knowledge and understanding of language development and language difficulties and impairments;
2) knowledge and understanding of the role of memory and attention in language and learning development;
3) the ability to consider critically the relationship between the characteristics of the child (individual factors, skills, how he/she learns), of the school environment (education, teaching methods, the class group and the wider school setting) and of other contexts in the causation of language delays and impairment and learning disabilities and difficulties;
4) the ability to apply the knowledge acquired to the process of observation in order to design and implement educational programmes in various educational contexts, particularly for language delays and learning difficulties.
Program
1) Introduction. Principal theoretical, epistemological, methodological and educational issues of children’s language and learning development. Distinctions between language delay and language impairment and between learning difficulties and learning disabilities.
2) Linguistic, cognitive, socio-emotional and motivational aspects of children’s language and learning development.
3) Language delay and impairment. Definition, classification, main theoretical models. Specific Language Impairment (SLI). Observational procedures in educational and family contexts. Risk factors and early indicators of language difficulties. Early intervention programmes for language delay.
4) Theoretical models for learning development. Learning difficulties and specific learning disabilities (LD). The relationship between SLI and dyslexia. Principal diagnostic categories of learning difficulties and disabilities.
5) Risk factors and early indicators of learning disabilities: the problem of a screening procedure. Current methods in diagnosis and planning educational programmes. School and specific learning disabilities. Support programmes for families and teachers.

Stage e Tirocini
Le ulteriori attività formative (crediti F) sono interamente coperte dall’attività di tirocinio “indiretto” (1 cfu) da svolgersi nel secondo anno e di tirocinio “diretto” (14 cfu) da svolgersi presso enti convenzionati per un numero complessivo di 15 cfu (375 ore). Chi è iscritta/o al curriculum servizi per l’infanzia è tenuta/o a svolgere il tirocinio presso nidi e servizi per la prima infanzia per almeno il 50% delle ore.
Il tirocinio professionalizzante (375 ore, pari a 15 cfu), è obbligatorio sia nella sua forma diretta che indiretta.
Il tirocinio indiretto, della durata di 25 ore a frequenza obbligatoria al 75%, si svolge in Università per 20 ore e in forma di lavoro individuale per 5 ore e consiste in un accompagnamento iniziale delle/degli studenti da parte dei tutor attraverso un percorso formativo dotandoli di conoscenze e strumenti adeguati a osservare, comprendere e rielaborare criticamente l’esperienza di tirocinio nei servizi educativi e ad affrontare il tirocinio negli enti con metodo e consapevolezza. Il percorso, da attuare in gruppi da 20-25 persone sotto la supervisione di un tutor, risponde alle esigenze costantemente espresse sia dalle/dagli studenti stessi sia dalle parti sociali che dai referenti degli enti convenzionati.
Il tirocinio diretto si propone di raggiungere i seguenti obiettivi:
- fare esperienza diretta di attività professionali, che richiedono un livello di preparazione al lavoro educativo;
- approfondire in particolare il rapporto tra preparazione teorica, acquisita mediante lo studio, ed esperienza pratica, tra mondo del sapere e della cultura e mondo del lavoro e delle professioni;
Al termine del tirocinio diretto lo studente deve presentare una relazione scritta, nella modalità concordata con il tutor accademico.
Nuove Linee Guida per il tirocinio di Scienze dell'educazione.
