Introduction to the Program
This Master's Degree will provide you with a sense of confidence in the practice of psychology, which will help you grow both personally and professionally”
The keys to learning difficulties developed throughout complete and specific training that will allow you to approach the intervention with the greatest effectiveness"
The school must take greater responsibility when it comes to education in values, to incorporating emotional intelligence in the teacher/student relationship, to coexistence with different people (inclusive school)..., in order to offer our children and young people better development in these times of overwhelming change.
In addition to this, neuroscience is providing more and more information and clues as to how the brain works and how it learns best, calling into question the traditional teaching-learning system. Likewise, our brains are continually exposed to the inevitable presence of new technologies: we acquire knowledge and interact "in continuous connection" with others through screens, and this is already having an impact on the way we learn.
The Master's Degree in Psychological Intervention in Learning Difficulties that we now offer reflects the effort to gather the knowledge we already had regarding Learning Difficulties, while also incorporating new advances in neuroscience, educational and clinical psychology, and teaching, as well as aspects of new technologies that can help us work with this population. It is therefore a unique Master’s Degree, which offers a broad, global vision framed in the 21st century and, at the same time, has a practical, useful approach, with a focus on the real problems that we will encounter.
Students are trained to be competent in an area of professional practice where they will not only master the use of techniques or instruments to evaluate and design individual or group interventions. It will also place you in a new work framework, increasingly characterized by collaboration with other professionals, and by the demand for psychologists to provide guidance and advice in the design of educational environments, which must meet the special educational needs of the students with learning difficulties.
