Aims
At the end of this learning unit, the student is able to : | |
| 1 |
At the end of this course, the student must be able to master the theoretical and methodological knowledge that can identify the neuropsychological disorders present in an individual and to analyze the underlying causes. In the light of the learning outcomes framework, the course is aimed primarily at getting students to: A1. Master knowledge that helps explain and understand an individual, group, or organization. A2. Critically analyse and model a situation (individual, group, or organization) with reference to psychological theories, research findings, methods and tools. Second, this course aims to get students to: B1. Master knowledge of interventions to improve a given situation (individual, group, or organization). E2. Identify the contribution and added value of scientific research in psychology and the sciences of education on its understanding of given situations. |
