The course was built with a mixed method.
The first part, self-study mode, provides specific content through 5 video modules, lasting about 30 minutes each.
These are video-recorded lessons given in French by a native speaker, which can be downloaded and followed according to the time available to each individual.
The lessons are accompanied by a reference bibliography to deepen the contents.
The second part is interactive and applied. Students will be able to test the knowledge acquired during the previous independent study. According to a predefined program, they will participate in working groups (minimum 5), led by teachers.
A first evaluation, which will consist of a questionnaire with multiple choice questions, is foreseen at the end of the first theoretical part of the course. Passing the test will give access to the second part of the training.
The second evaluation is foreseen after the interactive working groups and will be based on the level of understanding, the ability to apply knowledge and commitment.
At the end of the training and based on the assessments obtained, a university certificate will be issued certifying the attendance of the course.
Course participants must fill out the form at the following link to register for the course and be able to participate in the second part of the training and obtain the final certificate: https://forms.office.com/Pages/ResponsePage.aspx?id=xUsGu6i37EG6vte-s_rrHPRJFZWRyvlIkB1hvkh-sqhUODMyWkhKUllDQUpQUUk4QTNDRkVXUEVIRi4u

Fourth lesson: T group
The fourth lesson “T-group” provides the basic knowledge to design, organise and conduct T-groups as psychosocial research tools aimed at sharing the partecipants’ perceptions and subjective experiences in order to construct a shared social understanding of the phenomenon in the group dimension. https://youtu.be/yQBUF3Xy0QE
Fifth lesson: Analyse
The fifth and final lesson “Analysis” provides the main elements for conducting a correct and precise quantitative and qualitative analysis of the data collected depending on the instrument used. For qualitative analysis, in particular, the IPA (Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis) approach and the analysis steps involved in the method are introduced (Smith, Flowers & Larkin, 2009). https://youtu.be/AL3gcB7rL_c
