A practical and dynamic learning method

UD learning model (MAUD)

Experiential context

We know that we learn from experience. Therefore, at Deusto, our starting point is students’ previous knowledge. In the first stage, activities are proposed to explore students' preconceptions, relevant cases and previous experiences related to the subject matter addressed.

Reflective observation

Once these preliminary schemes have been drawn up, it is essential to examineand questionthem. Thus, in this second phase, participants engage in discussion activities through questioning and systematic observation.

Conceptualisation

We compare our prior knowledge with literature on the subject. The course is lecture-based(both classroom-based and online) and includes reading of texts and/or their guided presentation.

Active learning

Students will put into practice what they have learnt through practical activities such as attending clinical sessions as a co-therapist or reflecting team, case analysis, project development and external work placements in centres.

Assessment

Lastly, the assessment process comprisesreflection on what the student has learned and evaluation of the work completed. Students will carry out a variety of activities such as written tests, report writing, etc.

Face-to-face and online tutorials

You will have full support throughout the whole process. The university provides both face-to-face and online tutorials, aimed at supervisingand monitoring work (individual and/or group).
