Coping the challenges and cross-cultural issues of international development cooperation project
A.A. 2024/2025
Obiettivi formativi
Il laboratorio professionalizzante ha l'obiettivo di costruire o irrobustire alcune competenze trasversali. Queste competenze integrano il percorso di studi e consentono agli studenti di acquisire un primo bagaglio di abilità che afferiscono a un ambito professionale specifico, ma rientrano anche nel novero delle capacità interpersonali e comunicative generali che sono richieste dal mondo del lavoro.
Risultati apprendimento attesi
Attraverso modalità didattiche interattive e partecipate, il laboratorio professionalizzante consentirà di sviluppare sia conoscenze e competenze specifiche di ambiti professionali definiti, sia approcci didattici mirati a potenziare tanto le capacità di collaborazione, condivisione, problem solving, quanto quelle di utilizzare le conoscenze e competenze del proprio percorso in un particolare contesto di applicazione pratica.
Con numeri contenuti di partecipanti, ci sarà la possibilità di organizzare e monitorare il lavoro sia individuale sia di gruppo, in modo da costruire le migliori occasioni di applicazione delle conoscenze e comprensione acquisite.
I frequentanti prenderanno consapevolezza degli elementi chiave del tema del laboratorio, in modo da avere le coordinate base per potere elaborare un'opinione personale in merito.
