Didactic methods

Students will be accompanied to enter the internship environment through a teaching method that will include a mix of theory and practice. Starting from the exposition of the theoretical contents, practical experiences will be provided at the same time, in all lessons, individually, in subgroups and in large groups to support the experiential learning of the students and thus prepare them for the direct experience that they will then have in their internships. Testimonials from service professionals 0/3 relating to the topics covered by the program are also expected. In the last lessons, the students will be accompanied in small groups in the creation of a design which will ultimately be the subject of an exam evaluation.

Learning assessment procedures

The exam will consist of an individual production where the student will have to summarize what they have learned from the teaching in a personal way. The objective of this work will therefore be to qualitatively understand how much the student has learned and internalized, especially with regards to the interior posture of the educator.
