Dual pathways: Teacher in Early Childhood Education - Teacher in Primary Education

At the University of Barcelona we have designed a curriculum that allows you to study both Teacher in Early Childhood Education and Teacher in Primary Education simultaneously. The programme requires that you complete a total of 330 credits in five years, studying subjects from both degrees.

This dual pathway offers training that will allow you to meet the professional demands of a teacher in two different educational stages: early childhood and primary.

The programme will enable you to:

• Analyse and plan educational programmes that satisfy the needs of a changing society.
• Act as a mediator to ensure that classroom activities remain meaningful and stimulate the development potential of all pupils.
• Foster values such as coexistence, commitment, perseverance, discipline, gender equality and human rights, with the collaboration of the relevant agents from outside the school.
• Organize interactive exercises for pupils, to accomplish educational objectives through the promotion of autonomous and cooperative learning.
• Carry out the functions of tutoring, guidance and evaluation of pupils.
• Develop projects commensurate with the needs of the school and pupils based on in-depth knowledge of the learning stage and the subject matter being taught.
• Teach in multicultural and multilingual contexts.
• Apply learning and knowledge technologies in the classroom.
• Educate with the purpose of promoting professional aptitudes and interests.
