Proposal of a tridimensional structure to design the Practicum in the degree of Psychopedagogy

Abstract

ABSTRACT

The syllabus of the degree of Psychopedagogy has the Practicum as a subject of great importance. It has as a main objective the development of empirical spaces where the students can acquire and develop skills and competences related to the psychopedagogical intervention. We present in this article a ideas of the student´s activity: the context of development of the practical activity (educational-institutional, sociocommunitary and organizational), the thematic areas (teaching-learning processes, guidance and prevention and development) and the methodological modalities for its design and development (programme evaluation, research-action and experimental research, quasiexperimental and observational). Finally,we also present some ideas related to the process of making decisions by the student regarding his/her Practicum, and an annex that gathers some suggestions related to the thematic contents of the Practicum of Psychopedagogy.
