Science of Primary Education

The Course of Science in Primary Education (Single-cycle Degree Course – LM-85a) has two educational goals that foster the international projection:

a) English Language: Students will follow the English language courses provided annually and certain lessons / workshops which will be held exclusively in English, just like part of the direct placement, alsoheld in English. This will make it possible to respond to the internationalization of knowledge, getting stronger in our society. At the same time, it will definitely improve the English skills of the students. Furthermore, initial courses and ongoing teaching of the English language will be provided to allow all students to achieve these objectives.

b) integration and multiculturalism: The preparation of school teachers must be increasingly geared towards the challenges that the current society’s transformation is imposing. For such reason this graduate programme promotes knowledge of the dynamics and problems related to intercultural features that characterize the kindergarten and primary schools. Particular attention will be paid to the study of intercultural relations and the phenomena and processes of integration.
