Introduction

This subject aims to offer the student a global vision of psycho-educational intervention at school and family levels. Covers the preventive or therapeutic nature of the psychoeducational intervention and how to apply it to different areas and stages of the student's development in their learning process, both emotional and social. The subject will have two main blocks: psycho-pedagogical intervention in childhood and intervention in adolescence.

This subject aims to offer the student a global vision of the evolutionary development of oral and written language and what the main language, communication and speech disorders are, their characteristics and how to detect and guide them in the school and family environment.

Pre-course requirements

It is recommended to have prior knowledge of Evolutionary Psychology and be familiar with the various learning disorders, as well as behavioral disorders that may appear at school.
