Learning outcomes
Over the last decades, educational psychology has undergone stimulating development both at theoretical and applicative level. Starting from a reappraisal of traditional issues and approaches, the course aims at offering the widest systematized review possible of the most recent conceptualizations and of the interconnections with related disciplines, at the same time outlining developments of the research in this field.
The course will provide conceptual and methodological instruments to interpret the dynamic relationship between teaching and learning within a school environment. Special attention will be paid to connections between cognitive, metacognitive, and motivational aspects and learning processes.
Program
- Theoretical-empirical approaches to studying school learning
- Learning and development
- Learning and context
- Learning and motivation
- Learning, regulation, and thinking
- Learning assessment

During the course, data banks and journals, also online, will be searched both for theory-centred scientific articles focused on the cognitive, metacognitive, and motivational components of competence in mathematics, and for applicative scientific articles studying in depth the teaching/learning issues in mathematics.
Examination Methods
Oral examination at the end of the course
Note:
The course will be structured into both class lectures and lectures devoted to the in-depth analysis of the scheduled texts, to the exploration and critical discussion of the recommended readings and the material made available online. Students will be actively involved in the classroom discussions to encourage critical reflection on the issues dealt with.

News for students
There you will find information, resources and services useful during your time at the University (Student’s exam record, your study plan on ESSE3, Distance Learning courses, university email account, office forms, administrative procedures, etc.). You can log into MyUnivr with your GIA login details: only in this way will you be able to receive notification of all the notices from your teachers and your secretariat via email and also via the Univr app.
Alternative learning activities
In order to make the study path more flexible, it is possible to request the substitution of some modules with others of the same course of study in Mathematics at the University of Verona (if the educational objectives of the modules to be substituted have already been achieved in the previous career), or with others of the course of study in Mathematics at the University of Trento.Documents

Graduation
Deadlines and administrative fulfilments
For deadlines, administrative fulfilments and notices on graduation sessions, please refer to the Graduation Sessions - Science and Engineering service.
Need to activate a thesis internship
For thesis-related internships, it is not always necessary to activate an internship through the Internship Office. For further information, please consult the dedicated document, which can be found in the 'Documents' section of the Internships and work orientation - Science e Engineering service.
Final examination regulations
Upon completion of the Master’s degree dissertation students are awarded 32 CFU. The final examination consists of a written dissertation on a specific topic agreed with a supervising professor and presented to a commission (Dissertation Committee).
The dissertation can be high-level theoretical or experimental (in the latter case, it may focus on either basic or applied research), it can deal with a theoretical topic or propose the resolution of a specific problem, or description of a work project, and may be carried out at universities, research institutions, schools, laboratories and companies in the framework of internships, traineeships, study stays in Italy and abroad. The dissertation must be original and written by the student under the guidance of a Supervisor. At the request of the student, the dissertation may be written and presented in Italian.
Professors belonging to the Mathematics Teaching Committee, the Department of Computer Science, and any associated departments may be appointed as Supervisors, as well as any professors from the University of Verona whose area of interest (SSD - Scientific-disciplinary Sector) is included in the teaching regulations of the degree programme.
Students may take the final exam only if meeting all requirements set by the School of Sciences and Engineering.
The Master's degree in Mathematics is obtained by successfully passing the final examination and thus earning the 120 CFU included in the study plan.
The material submitted by the student for the final examination will be examined by the Dissertation Committee, which comprises three professors, possibly including the Supervisor, and appointed by the President of the Teaching Committee. The final examination will be assessed based on the following criteria: the student’s performance during the entire study programme, the knowledge acquired during the dissertation work, their understanding of the topic and autonomy of judgment, their ability to apply such knowledge, and communicate effectively and fully all the outcomes of the work and the main results obtained.
The final examination and the degree ceremony will be carried out, in one of the four graduation sessions throughout the academic year, by the Final Examination Committee appointed by the President of the Teaching Committee, and made up of a president and at least four members chosen from among the professors of the University.
For further information, please refer to the Final examination regulations.
