Content
The seminar addresses a set of biological, psychological and sociological notions that allow us to understand the family and sexuality. The seminar is also an introduction to scientific methods. Participants will identify relevant scientific publications, produce literature summaries and communicate, orally and in writing, the results of their bibliographic research.
Teaching methods
Like all seminars, the sessions are interactive. The active participation of students is recommended. Student attendance is mandatory (failure to comply with this requirement may result in refusal to register for the examination, articles 71, 72 and 73 of the RGEE).
This seminar is worth 10 ECTS. It requires an investment in individual and group work of approximately 250 to 300 hours throughout the semester. The amount of time spent working outside of the sessions therefore greatly exceeds the time spent in session.
There will be 9 sessions, each lasting 3 hours (sometimes 2), on certain Thursdays of the first semester, from 4:15 to 7:45 pm (or to 6:30 pm, for the shorter ones).
Depending on the public health recommendations and the capacity of the premises, sessions could be held in line or in comodal.
Evaluation methods
Continuous assessment based on written reports and oral presentations on the literature covered.
Depending on the public health policies implemented, the course sessions and student oral presentations could be conducted online.
Other information
Support: co-constructed bibliographies, slide shows, multimedia resources on Moodle.
Online resources
The Moodle page of the seminar gathers all the scientific literature seen during sessions as well as methodological, thematic and disciplinary resources on multimedia support.
