Learning unit contents
The objectives of this course are to support students in transitioning to higher education and to help them develop their career plans by training them in the key professional skill of reflexivity.
We will discuss preconceptions of the psychology profession and use the reflexive approach proposed by Charlier et al. (2020) - the 'DPATR' - to develop these representations, based on an analysis of the skills framework and professionals' testimonials. Students will practise the DPATR through various compulsory exercises.
Learning outcomes of the learning unit
The planned teaching activities will allow students:
a) to develop their own representation of the scope of work in psychology and the roles of the psychologist
b) to identify the principles and usefulness of a reflection-based process
c) to apply it to their study practices.

WARNING : The course includes exercises designed to help students develop their critical thinking skills and prepare for the initial assessment. These exercises are mandatory and have specific deadlines. Students who do not submit an exercise on time will not be permitted to take the June exams.

Organisational remarks and main changes to the course
. Communication modalities
I will use the e-campus platform to share information with you (documents to be downloaded, messages, agendas...).
