Prevention, intervention and rehabilitation in the specialisation area of emotional-social development
Information on the introductory lecture in the specialisations in the current semester can be found in the StudiLöwe commentary (of the respective semester), under Examinations or under News.
Content and focus of the course
Why do pupils behave disruptively and aggressively in the first place? How do teachers sometimes unconsciously contribute to this disruptive behaviour? Why is behaviour that is destructive and disruptive still useful? And how can I use the answers to all these questions for my future work as a special needs teacher? You will find answers to these and other questions in this lecture.
The course deals with disorders and special features of emotional-social development (behavioural disorders) in school-age children and adolescents. You will learn about the basic disorder patterns as well as risk and protective factors for emotional-social development. The lecture focuses on causes, explanatory models and thus also starting points for the promotion of behavioural problems at school. We will concentrate in particular on behavioural, systemic and attachment theory models and their implications for school practice. At certain points, we will create content-related bridges to the seminars "Methods of after-school and out-of-school rehabilitation and support". The following focal points are currently planned:
- Epidemiology of behavioural problems
- Classification systems
- Risk and protective factors
- Overview: Biophysical model, psychodynamic model, political-ecological model, sociological model
- Learning theory basics: classical and operant conditioning
- Learning theory basics: learning by modelling
- Fundamentals of attachment theory
- Education and behavioural problems
- Social-cognitive information processing
- Systemic principles I Control loops, context, subjective meaningfulness
- Specific problems I: Aggressiveness and disorders of social behaviour
- Specific problems II: ADHD
