A teaching approach is proposed that enables students to experience, within their own learning process, that learning is both a social and a personal act, engaging both rational and emotional dimensions. An interactive dynamic and a supportive, relaxed environment will be fostered to encourage participation and personal commitment to one’s own learning as well as to that of fellow group members. In this context, the teacher’s role is conceived as that of a facilitator of the teaching and learning process.

Particular emphasis will be placed in this course on the design and implementation of learning situations in early childhood education classrooms. These will be critically and systematically analysed to ensure that they respond to globalised and integrated approaches within the field of social sciences.

Annotation: within the schedule set by the centre or degree programme, 15 minutes of one class will be reserved for students to evaluate their lecturers and their courses or modules through questionnaires.

The instructions to pass this course. Students must demonstrate strong general communication skills, both oral and written, as well as a solid command of the Catalan language. All activities—whether individual or group-based—will be Tassessed for linguistic accuracy, writing quality, and formal presentation. Students are expected to express themselves fluently and accurately and to show a high level of understanding of academic texts. This is a mandatory requirement for the assessment of all coursework.

A proactive attitude will be valued, especially during oral participation activities (as specified in each activity’s instructions).

Students may still access the resit opportunity, provided they have submitted at least two-thirds of the course assignments.Marks for each assessment will be returned within 15 days of submission. Students wishing to review their grades must request an appointment within 7 days of the grades being published, by sending an email to arrange a meeting during the instructor’s designated office hours.

To pass the course, all evaluation tasks must be submitted by 27/05/2027. If the average grade of the CA does not reach 5, assignments scored under 5 may be resubmitted on the resit date, 17/06/2027. The maximum grade obtainable through the resit is 5 out of 10.

It must be remembered that the activities will have to be presented in the recovery, but it will not be possible to obtain more than 5 out of 10 in each of them.

Regarding the single assessment, the instructions are as follows:

Regarding the assessment activities, you must present the same activities indicated in this guide on 27/05/2027 but all individually. And that same day he will have to do the evaluation interview.

The percentages of the assessment activities together with the interview, for the single assessment, are as follows:

-Critical analysis of teaching proposals individually: 15%

-Individual evaluation of the preparation of an individual critical reflexion: 35%

-Elaboration of a didactic activity using a written resource (story or illustrated album). Individually: 35%

-Evaluative interview: 15%

NON-ASSESSABLE. Students who have not provided sufficient assessment evidence (i.e., who have completed less than two-thirds of the required assessment activities) will be considered non-assessable. In such cases, they will not be eligible for the resit process.

RESIT. In accordance with UAB academic regulations, students must meet the following requirements in order to access the course resit process:

• All assessment activities in the course are eligible for resit, provided that the student has previously been assessed in the activity to be resat.
• However, to be eligible for the resit process, students must obtain a minimum average grade of 3.5 in the course. Otherwise, they will not be allowed to take the resit, and the course will automatically be failed.
• Students must have met the requirements established for the course assessment.
• Students must have complied with the transparency criteria regarding the use of AI*.
• Students must not have violated the regulations concerning copying or plagiarism**.
• The maximum grade that can be obtained through the resit process is 5 out of 10 for the activity being retaken. This grade will be averaged with the grades obtained in the other assessment activities.

The scheduled date for the resit process for both Continuous Assessment and Single Assessment is 17/06/2027.

*Use of Artificial Intelligence (AI):

For this course, the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies is permitted exclusively for support tasks, such as bibliographic or information searches.

Students must clearly identify which parts have been generated using such technology, specify the tools used, and include a critical reflection on how these have influenced both the process and the final outcome of the activity.Lack of transparency in the use of AI in this graded activity will be considered a breach of academic integrity and may result in a partial or total penalty in the activity's grade, or more serious sanctions in severe cases.

** In accordance with UAB academic regulations, copying or plagiarism in any type of assessment activity constitutes an offence and will be penalized with a grade of 0 for the course, with no possibility of resitting, whether it is an individual or group assignment (in the latter case, all group members will receive a grade of 0). If, during an individual in-class assignment, the lecturer considers that a student is attempting to copy or discovers any document or device not authorized by the teaching staff, the assignment will be graded with a 0, with no possibility of resitting, and the student will therefore fail the course. An assignment, activity, or examination will be considered "copied" when it reproduces all or a significant part of another student's work. An assignment or activity will be considered "plagiarized" when part of a text by another author is presented as one's own without citing the sources, regardless of whether the original sources are in print or digital format.
