Introduction
The subject Learning difficulties, Developmental disorders and Inclusive Education has as its main objective to determine the conditions that may present some students who show learning problems. The different types of problems are analyzed from minor to greater complexity, as well as diagnostic techniques and possible intervention programs, always taking into account the conditions of the context.
Pre-course requirements
It is necessary to have a serious degree of coincidence. In case the grade is very different content, it will be necessary to take the training complements to be determined in each case.
Objectives
2. Identify the educational needs that allow evaluating the psychoeducational process of students to achieve school inclusion.
3.Propose significant adaptations in different contexts of formal and non-formal learning.
4. Provide educational strategies of attention to students with SEN (learning difficulties, generalized developmental disorders).
5. Facilitate the creation of specific psychopedagogical intervention programs (school environment and work partner).
