Objectives

The Master's participants have taken the subjects of 'Diversity and Curriculum' and 'Assessment and diagnosis of educational needs', so they have an approach to the current principles and problems that occur in the field of educational psychology. Subsequently and in parallel to the current subject, subjects related to intervention in different educational stages or with different groups of users have been started. Therefore, they are familiar with the spaces and users of the intervention.

This subject analyzes and deepens the models and practices that accompany the organization, management and development of territorial support services, which channel demands and provides support to educational centres and other institutions that require it. Its focus is, therefore, on the knowledge and analysis of the organizational, management and leadership systems of psycho-pedagogical institutions and services. Its knowledge is essential for the educational psychologist, as it is a space for professional activity and as a reference for diagnoses and treatments at the school level.

The objectives of the subject are:

  1. Understand the organization and functioning of educational psycho-pedagogical support services.
  2. Analyze the models of organization and functioning of educational psycho-pedagogical support services.
  3. Delimitate strategies for work with the psycho-pedagogical support services.
  4. Design and develop proposals for intervention which consider the nature and the functions of educational psycho-pedagogical services.

Continuous assessment

a) What will we assess?

The degree of achievement of the contents worked on (section 7 of this guide) and of the learning outcomes (section 6 of this guide).


b) When will we assess it?

We consider that there are three key moments in the evaluation of the subject: initial assessment, continuous assessment and final assessment.

The initial assessment must allow us to know the “starting” level of the students in terms of knowledge about the subject and experiences of group work, individual autonomous work, etc. and, in this way, be able to adapt the program to their needs.

Continuous assessment must allow us to verify the level of achievement of the learning in order to be able to attend to the diversity and particularity of the students while making decisions about the pace of development of the program.

The final assessment is the one that should allow us to verify the level of learning achieved, taking into account the objectives and competencies of the program, without underestimating the adaptations that may have been introduced.


c) How will we evaluate it?

The assessment instruments (evidence) are specified as follows:

  • Attendance and participation (10%) linked, where appropriate, to the free completion of classroom practices.
  • Theoretical-practical tests (40%): an individual theoretical-practical test (case) in relation to the contents worked on in class. The test will be held in the last class session of the course (28/04/2027)
  • Module assignments (45%):
  • a) a presentation (in group) on the objectives, composition and operation of a privately owned psychopedagogical service (20%).
  • b) portfolio (individual) (28/05/2027) understood as an integrated synthesis of notes, reflections, contributions from readings, documents and classroom practices (25%).
  • Self-assessment (5%)


Recovery

In the event that the student does not pass the subject, he/she may recover the failed activities (exam or submission of failed assignments) on June 30, 2027.

To participate in the recovery process, the student must have been evaluated for a minimum of 66% of the total grade for the subject.



Single assessment

The single assessment consists of the preparation of a learning portfolio (30%), a theoretical-practical test of the resolution of a case (50%) and a work on the objectives, composition and operation of a privately owned psychopedagogical service (20%).

The theoretical-practical test will be held on the same date as students who opt for continuous assessment (in the penultimate class session); the other two activities (portfolios and work on a privately owned psychopedagogical center) will be delivered on 28/5/2027.

The same recovery system will be applied as for continuous assessment: the assignments will be redone and submitted or the theoretical-practical test will be repeated on June 30, 2027.


Additional information

Students who have not submitted evidence representing at least 33% of the final grade will be considered Not Assessable.

The results of the assessments will be published within a maximum period of 20 working days, with a review in the following 10 days.

Non-recoverable activities do not exceed 50% of the final grade.

The minimum mandatory attendance is 80%.

Plagiarism or copying entails a grade of 0 without the option of recovery, whether it is an individual or group work (in this case, all members of the group will have a 0).

The subject allows the use of generative artificial intelligence. Its use is permitted as long as the final result reflects a significant contribution by the student in the analysis and personal reflection. The student must clearly identify which parts have been generated with this technology, specify the tools used and include a critical reflection on how these have influenced the process and the final result of the activity. The lack of transparency in the use of AI will be considered a lack of academic honesty and may lead to a penalty in the grade of the activity, or greater sanctions in serious cases. For this reason, it will be sanctioned with a grade of 0.

Students must be able to express themselves fluently and correctly and must show a high degree of understanding of academic texts. An activity may be returned (not evaluated) or suspended if the teacher considers that it does not meet these requirements.
