Neuroeducation for teachers-Psycho-pedagogical intervention based on neuropsychology

This micro-credential is aimed at active teachers and professionals in the field of education (Early Childhood Education, Primary, Secondary and Vocational Training) who wish to deepen their understanding of learning processes from a neuropsychological perspective, applying this knowledge directly in their educational practice.

It is also aimed at teachers in the initial stages of their professional career, as well as professionals linked to educational guidance, interested in acquiring a solid foundation in neuroeducation applied to the classroom and in the design of educational responses adapted to the diversity of students.

From the professional point of view, the learning acquired throughout the micro-credential allows for:

• Early detection of warning signs and possible learning difficulties.
• Analyse the cognitive, emotional and behavioural functioning of students in real educational contexts.
• Interpret psycho-pedagogical reports and actively participate in educational assessment processes.
• Design and apply educational intervention strategies adjusted to the neuropsychological profile of pupils.
• Improve coordination and collaborative work with teaching teams, counsellors and families in processes of attention to diversity and educational inclusion.

The micro-credential is taught using a 100% online, self-guided and individual methodology, designed to facilitate compatibility with the professional teaching activity.

Learning is based on:

• Structured and updated theoretical content.
• Analysis of case studies linked to real classroom situations.
• Applied activities aimed at reflection and educational decision-making.
• Final knowledge assessment test.

Duration and dedication

• Mode: online and flexible
• Pace: autonomous learning
• Estimated dedication: 5-6 hours per week.

This format allows for an immediate transfer of learning to educational practice, from the beginning of the training.

At the end of the micro-credential, you will obtain a university micro-credential certificate issued by the Universidad Alfonso X el Sabio (UAX).

Micro-credentials are training courses:

• Designed for continuous professional development.
• Oriented towards the acquisition of specific and updated competences.
• Aligned with the European model of micro-credentials, which promotes short, flexible and applicable learning in the professional environment.
• Endorsed by a university and adapted to the current needs of the market and the different professional sectors.

The training plan is structured around content directly linked to the understanding of learning from neuropsychology and its application in real educational contexts, guaranteeing relevant training aligned with teaching practice.

It promotes a balanced development of technical and professional skills, especially in the areas of early detection of learning difficulties, psycho-pedagogical assessment and the design of educational interventions adapted to the profile of the student.

The programme adopts a transversal approach to diversity and educational inclusion, integrating educational decision-making based on scientific evidence as the central axis of pedagogical intervention.

Likewise, the methodology is oriented towards the analysis of real cases and the immediate application of learning in the classroom, favouring a direct and effective transfer of the knowledge acquired to educational practice.
