Description
This Mooc aims to complete the training in psychology of teachers. It covers 3 very specific topics, which are both very well understood thanks to decades of research in psychology, and which are absolutely crucial for teachers:
- Memory
- The behaviour
- motivation.
These 3 subjects were chosen for their intrinsic importance, and for their transversal interest: they are important in all subjects, and at all levels of schooling, from kindergarten to higher education. They concern 100% of teachers.
