Learning outcomes |
This course aims to develop knowledge on models and systemic/family intervention strategies, providing a broad overview about different types of intervention in this area. At the end, students should be able to:
- understand the theoretical assumptions and concepts underlying systemic and family intervention;
- know different types of systemic intervention;
- apply systemic thinking and principles to different problems, especially in working with families;
- apply techniques underlying different models of systemic / family intervention;
- reflect upon ethical responsibilities in systemic intervention;
- analyse scientific information.

Teaching Methodologies and Assessment Criteria |
Teaching methodologies: component of exposition of content in the form of theoretical explanations and/or practical examples, to introduce basic concepts and provide a basis for subsequent learning; individual and group analysis of theoretical and theoretical-practical materials and practical cases; training of intervention techniques through role-play and classroom simulation. Flipped learning strategies, with discussions, practical exercises, dynamization of themes worked on by the students. Evaluation strategies: Knowledge assessment tests, activities carried out in contact sessions and/or group work. Throughout the semester, theoretical-practical activities will be carried out to consolidate knowledge and skills.
