Educational objectives
Knowledge and understanding skills - To know differences in cultural, social, linguistic, family, sex, gender and sexual orientation - To know differences in learning, cognition, emotions and social behaviour and relationships Applied knowledge and understanding - To know, understand and apply a holistic ('whole school approach') and participatory approach to the implementation of inclusive and intercultural cultures, policies and practices, with a focus on pre-schools Autonomy of judgement - Analysing attitudes, stereotypes and prejudices towards differences, especially in the 2-7 age group Communication skills - To know and use specific vocabulary correctly - To know and use language in a conscious manner with respect to pre-judgments Learning skills - Reflect critically theories and practices of diversity, interculturalism and inclusion

Assessment
Written and oral examinations: the examination takes into account the examinations carried out in progress (closed and open written examinations and possible oral expositions), which focus on knowledge of the topics and concepts covered, the ability to apply knowledge and understanding, critical analysis and reflection. Notice will be given in the lecture room as to how the mid-term assessments of the individual subjects will be conducted. In the event of a negative assessment for the entire module, any partial examinations taken with a positive result will be considered as already passed at the next attempt to take the entire module examination. It should be borne in mind that, even in this case, a negative mark for the entire module will be counted towards the number of attempts available to take an exam. According to the Regulation of Examinations, if a student fails an examination in three consecutive attempts, he/she may not enrol for the same examination in the three sessions following the last attempt (Art. 6(4) of the current Regulation of Proficiency Examinations).

Evaluation criteria
The examination provides for a single final mark, which is the weighted average of the marks of the different parts of the examination (oral and written). The final mark is based on the assessment of the following tests - written test (Pedagogy and didactics of inclusion for children, theoretical course); - written examination (or oral examination) and project work (Intercultural pedagogy and didactics of inclusion for children, theoretical course); - portfolio for the workshops. The module assessment takes into account the following criteria: relevance, logical structure and clarity of argumentation; capacity for critical analysis, re-elaboration and reflection; ability to transpose theory into practice and to associate theory with practice; lexical appropriateness and completeness.
