1.1. Aims of the course

Importance of learning outcomes obtained in the subject:

Nowadays the activity of the teacher in the classroom is developed in a context marked by diversity, and will be specified in regular classrooms with students with different learning paces and classrooms prepared to work with pupils with special educational needs.

 

Teacher training requires knowing the conditions that will produce different paces of learning and development, sometimes with important differences in relation to other students and to the typical patterns of development. Which makes these children recipients of additional support from the education system. An effective teacher performance requires maintaining a positive attitude towards the development of all pupils, regardless of the conditions that have generated such diversity. Equally important, teachers must be able to identify properly these conditions of diversity and should have sufficient knowledge about the factors that explain their emergence and evolution, so that they can know what interventions can encourage the development of these children as well as under what conditions of the educational system can be implemented. 

1.2. Context and importance of this course in the degree

Meaning , context , relevance and aims of the subject.

The subject and its expected results meet the following approaches and objectives:

The course was designed to enable the teacher to recognise the student diversity to be found at the stage of 6 to 12 years. Diversity in terms of personal characteristics and development: sensory, motor , behavioural , cognitive ; school learning, sociocultural and contextual also taking into account the consequences of this various development in school learning.

The teacher must be able to assess how to work with this different students , offsetting for their particular difficulties , by enabling and promoting optimal development and autonomy . Another important objective is to understand the strategies and techniques that allow working in the classroom, so that the role of the school and education professionals, as well as family and peers in the educational attention to diversity is integrated.

1.3. Recommendations to take this course

Considerations before taking this subject

It is recommended that the student, before starting the subject , know the contents of the subjects studied in 1st degree course in Teaching in Elementary Education. The student must maintain a regular activity in his or her performance in the subject and update the study together with scheduled activities. The class attendance should be useful as well as being in contact with their peers, to facilitate group and individual learning.

2.1. Competences

The ultimate goal of training a teacher is enabling him or her to design the processes of teaching and learning given in schools, taking them to practice in a multicultural context , considering the diversity present in the classroom, the different paces of learning and relationship with families to jointly contribute to the development of the pupil .

 

To accomplish this task , the teacher undergo basic training which includes , on the one hand , knowledge of educational and family context and, secondly , the psychological foundation of development and learning processes.

Using this knowledge the course provides an integrative and inclusive perspective that enables an appropriate response to the needs of each student, respecting their personality , fostering the development of their and individual, social, intellectual, cultural and emotional skills . Considering this optimal development from a holistic perspective in which attention to diversity is assumed as a common working tool.

2

Identify different development rates in specific areas: sensorial-motor, cognitive, linguistic, social, emotional and personal.

3

Predict psychological development for a given case based on general theories and the information provided.

4

Evaluate the degree of normality or problems during development in specific cases.

5

Relate how various agents, the family, peers at school act with the optimisation process of development.

2.3. Importance of learning goals

This subject continues the psychological training of future teachers, which began during the previous 4-month period. In this case, from the Developmental Psychology vision, the characteristics of children aged 6-12 years are presented by examining sensorial, psychomotor, cognitive, linguistic and socio-personal aspects. This subject ensures that an overview of the child is obtained to reflect on the factors that influence him/her by analysing how school becomes a vitally important agent.

3.1. Assessment tasks (description of tasks, marking system and assessment criteria)

Assessment activities. The student must demonstrate the achievement of learning outcomes provided by the following evaluation activities.

1: Student assessment is mixed with evaluative activities during the academic session and a final test.

1. Evaluative activities during the classes: Students will do throughout the semester:

1.1 Group Reports resolution of cases and other materials on various types of medium (cases , videos or records). They will be conducted two to five case reports of pupils with special educational needs, which in turn may be supplemented by parallel tasks of peer correction and / or group exhibition.

1.2 Individual and group self-assessments on the operation and organization of group work and learning achieved. In addition, a final self-assessment of the subject that can include the application of it together with the analysis of case studies prepared by students is incorporated.

2. Final exam: final individual written record based on a theoretical part with multiple-choice questions or essay questions and a practical part with brief cases. The exam takes place on the official date that each centre has been established for final exams.

 

Evaluation criteria related to reports of  case resolution ( Activity 1.1 ) Upon written report :

  • The students have identified the main subject of the case.
  • The students have used the theoretical knowledge presented by the teacher or included in the basic readings in order to respond to the specific questions.
  • The students have identified the need for further information on the subject autonomously looking for and selecting the one that may be relevant and quoting it.
  • The students have shown at least a level of functional understanding (Biggs´ taxonomy) of content, which should allow the identification of the type of educational need which occurs on the case, factors that have influenced the evolution of the case and establish justifiably some intervention actions.

 

  • The students have prepared a written report on the basis of  minimum quality standards, establishing proper sequencing of ideas, presenting them in a clear and orderly manner , differentiating the data, the theoretical contributions and personal assessments. The language used should be clear and comprehensible.

 

On the tasks of establishment of common perspective and discussion:

  • The performance of these tasks involves public presentation and discussion with peers by a group spokesperson (all students have to do at least one intervention throughout the course) of the most relevant aspects of cases and relevant observations. Issues assessed:
  • The quality of the exhibition: clarity, relevance, consistency and analysis carried out.
  •  Participation , dialogue established, responses to the ideas expressed by peers, especially  by extending their contributions , exemplifying or relativizing them.

On individual and group self-assessments ( Activity 1.2 )

  • Analysis of the performance and organization of group work and learning achieved throughout and at the end of the semester.
  • Self-assessment of learning carried out at different times including an analysis of the achievements, especially focusing on the student's ability to relate theory and practice.
  • A proper resolution of this type of task requires students to reflect and assess the knowledge acquired and doubts that have arisen from the task and the process of individual and group learning.

On the final exam (Activity 2). A proper resolution of this type of task requires:

 

● The students should know at least one functional level ( Biggs )of the types of conditions that can arise in educational needs , their characteristics depending on the age of the child and his or her level of development  which constitute factors that contribute to the evolution of the case and raise some interventions consistent with previous assumptions.

 Should be able to describe and make comparisons between different cases of children with educational needs , identifying behaviours and their characteristics.

● The students are able to analyse specific cases identifying specific behaviours, areas of development affected depending on the age, adaptive impact , the factors accounting for the situation and some proposals for intervention.

● All of it should be done by students in an organised and orderly manner, creating a clear and comprehensible text.

 

Qualifying criteria and requirements to pass the course

 As for the final grade, it is determined by sum of scores obtained according to the following table

Activity %

Measurable activities during the course 35 %

Personal work and self-assessments to 5%

Final exam 60 %

Total 100%

 

Measurable activities during the course:

For the measurable activities activities during the course are qualified and computed in the final grade shall be delivered within the dates announced by teachers. The system is designed to encourage continuous learning and not only as a final grade.

Regarding the multiple – choice questions test – to minimise the effects due to chance, the failures will be deduced dividing them by the number of response options minus 1.

The final score of this test is the average of the theoretical and practical part, being necessary to obtain at least 4 in each of the parties to this average. If one of the parties is not reached 4 or the average mark of both is lower than 5, the course will not be approved.

 

Global test and second call

Students who have not completed or performed the measurable activities along the course and which have an important weight in grading, according to the regulation of assessment established by the University of Zaragoza , will be evaluated in a single final assessment test to be held on the official dates established by the centre. This unique, paper based test incorporates both theoretical and practical issues, in a way that together allow achieving similar note to students who have followed the main formative schedule.  

The second call has the format of the final overall assessment. In the case of those students who had approved measurable activities during classes, this part is being kept if it improves his or her final grade. If the student did not passed the written individual final test, this will be repeated as a whole, irrespective of whether they approved or not any of its parts.

 

Fifth and sixth call

Students in 5th and 6th call will be evaluated with the same assessment system as the rest of the students.
