Planned learning activities and teaching methods

Different activities will be organized: 
  . Work-based conferences: professionals (psychologists and educational scientists) will explain their career paths and professional experience. You will be requested to prepare thse conferences and engage in discussions with these professionals.
. A choice of conferences: from a list of conferences that I will propose, you will have to choose and attend a minimum of one of them.
- a Reflexivity workshop (provided)
. Throughout the year, you will have to keep a journal.

Mode of delivery (face-to-face ; distance-learning)

Face-to-face, complemented with a web space for communication, information sharing and handing in the reports.

Organizational remarks

. Communication modalities
I will use the e-campus platform to share information with you (documents to be downloaded, messages, agendas...).
  . Second session
The activities will only be organized once on the dates that will be communicated at the beginning of the year. There will therefore not be any event (conference) organized between the exam sessions of May/June and August/September.
