Objective

The objective of this course is to study the psychological conditions that favor scholastic success. How can failure be prevented when classrooms are multicultural?

How are resources and the collaboration of different actors (teachers, parents, educators, principals,...) best mobilized? How to provide students with the necessary means to support their cognitive development and identity construction in the context of their social and family relationships?
