In particular, the teaching aims are to provide students with basic notions of group psychology applied to different contexts and to focus on specific intervention techniques of community psychology. Individual study, attendance and participation in the proposed training activities will enable the student to:
acquire adequate theoretical knowledge, methodological and skills related to the application of different methods and group intervention techniques in different application contexts.
apply their knowledge and understanding and solving problems related to the use of methods and group techniques in various application contexts.
use, both conceptually and operative mode, the knowledge gained from self-evaluation skills and expertise in different application contexts.
acquire the typical discipline technical language to be able to communicate clearly and unambiguously with specialists and non-specialist interlocutors.
develop appropriate learning skills to allow them to independently investigate major issues, techniques and methods of discipline especially in the workplace in which they will operate.
Lectures, active methods, practical exercises and case studies
The course will show how the group present in the different contexts of everyday life can become a professional working tool for the figure of the social worker. The group will be proposed as a relational tool that acquires specificity and meanings within the community psychology approach.
