General Objectives

The objective of the degree in Primary Education is to train professionals who are able to anticipate the integrated educational needs of their pupils. Professionals who take into account the family, social and cultural backgrounds of children and address them properly. Creative and committed professionals, questioning when it comes to interpreting reality and, at the same time, flexible enough to adapt to a changing society. Professionals who develop empathy to understand children and create a welcoming environment in which to share discoveries and cosy in the investigations share new knowledge, and teaching and language discoveries.

Primary Education - Modules

  • Basque Educational System on the 21th century (6 ECTS) (10/2023 - 11/2023):
    • Being a teacher in our globalized (g localized) society needs more and more reflection and knowledge about what is similar and not between the different realities in our world. To help us gain this global view and understanding, we need to be in touch with other schools, organizations, systems, and countries on an (inter)national basis. This module aims at that. In this module, we will focus on four main axes in education. The first axis will be the Basque education system,Innovation, Teacher as a researcher and Professional Learning Community.
  • Experimentation in Natural and Social Environments (10 ECTS) (10/2023 - 11-2023):
