Sustainability and unsustainability aspects of migration and return migration processes WF-PS-SUA-ER
The aim of the classes is to cover the range of migration-related issues and processes in the world, as well as to evaluate psycho-pedagogical theories and approaches in ensuring the social adaptation process of diaspora children in mainstream schools. The classes will cover a variety of psychological approaches to the organization of an inclusive education process for children of diaspora families, by providing individualization and differentiation.
As a result of lectures students are able to:
1) To ritically analyze both the theoretical literature and the choice of the use of socio-psychological methods in the work of a psychologist in the pedagogical process, respecting the diverse needs of children of diaspora families;
2) To model the flexible application of knowledge, skills and competences in the work of a psychologist, identifying the characteristics of the normative and humanistic pedagogical process in work with the children of diaspora families;
3) To formulate and critically analyze complex professional problems in the work with diaspora children, justify decisions and carry out additional analysis as needed
