Conoscenze e abilità da conseguire
By the end of the course students will know the theoretical models on the effects of risk and protective factors in typical, at risk and atypical development, methods and techniques for observing and evaluating indexes of developmental risk, strategies and intervention programs to promote development in educational and care contexts from infancy to adolescence.
Contenuti
The course includes the following integrated modules:
Chiara Suttora (32 hours)
This module will first focus on recent theories of developmental psychology, as neuroconstructivism, considered essential in the understanding of the complex interplay of risks and protective factors in child development. It will provide students with knowledge on methods, designs, and procedures, which are necessary to recognize risk and protective factors in child development and to implement intervention protocols. One developmental contexts will be introduced to stimulate students in applying theoretical and methodological contents and developing intervention projects:
- role of parenting in promoting development and wellbeing in populations of children with at-risk and atypical development.
Annalisa Guarini (16 hours)
In the second module two other contexts will be proposed to deepen in-class theoretical and methodological reflections and to promote wellbeing and social inclusivity:
- preterm birth and its impact on child development and family adjustments;
- bullying and cyberbullying in educational settings.

Scientific papers and other materials will be made available at the course website. These readings are mandatory to pass the final exam.
