Learning outcomes

The course is aimed at the acquisition and deepening of the principles and methodologies of investigation of developmental psychology.
In particular, the student will be offered:
1. knowledge and understanding:
a. development processes in the different emotional-relational, cognitive, motor, learning and memory areas within the main theoretical models,
b. the main factors that may favour or hinder learning and development pathways,
c. individual differences in behaviors, in the processes of affective-emotional development and learning.
2. The ability to master the relationship between characteristics of the child (individual factors and skills) and characteristics of the context (family, social and cultural factors) for the identification of specific factors of promotion and protection.
3. the ability to critically and personally apply the skills learned to observe and interpret the behavior of a child in a given context, identifying any difficulties in the different domains of development.

Examination Methods

At the end of the course the student must demonstrate that he has acquired full mastery in the theoretical field and autonomous ability to contextualize it to crucial issues related to development processes.
The evaluation will take into account four dimensions: knowledge of theoretical contents; ability to use a language appropriate to the contents studied; knowledge of the appropriate methodologies and tools in the various themes; ability to critically rework the contents studied.
The exam will take place in oral form.

Students with disabilities or specific learning disorders (SLD), who intend to request the adaptation of the exam, must follow the instructions given HERE
