| Content |
The course centres on various themes (see list below) which may vary from year to year.
Methods :
In class sessions : the different themes are covered through the analysis of real and fictitious cases (statements, videos, written case reports), to provoke a critical discussion of the contribution of research and its relevance to practice. The course takes the form of presentations, question and answer sessions based on reading assignments and analysis of case studies.
Group work : these sessions are designed to develop students' skill in analyzing educational situations, searching for hypotheses and sharing what they discover, based on the research they have read and worked on for the course. They also provide training in documentary research.
Individual work : students are required to examine in greater detail an issue linked to one of the themes. They will need to look for relevant research articles, analyse them and produce a written summary.
