Professional Master's Degree in Visual Skills and Academic Performance
The factors that hinder learning processes, although diverse in nature, often correspond to physical or cognitive complications that require medical knowledge. Among these are those related to the visual system, which hinder activities such as reading and writing. To correctly address these deficiencies, TECH Global University has created this innovative program that brings together the ocular anatomical study and the psycho-pedagogical analysis of the academic implications generated by pathologies and disabilities. Throughout the 12 months of the study plan, professionals interested in this subject will delve into the neuropsychological functions involved in the decoding, capture and tracing of writing, as well as the skills required for such processes: accommodation, ocular motricity, binocularity and perception. Thanks to this, they will be able to develop skills in the detection and intervention of problems of this type, in order to stimulate the cognitive abilities of students through school activities and thus improve their academic performance.
Professional Master's Degree in Visual Skills and Academic Performance
This TECH Professional Master's Degree is an interesting opportunity to comprehensively address the attentional problems in learning caused by failures in the visual system. The contents, carefully designed by our teaching team, allow to approach the neuronal plasticity of people who experience complications, to understand their cognitive functioning and to distinguish the types of consciousness that are activated during reading and writing. Based on this theoretical-practical path, educators will specialize in the analysis of the visual, primary and association areas, the degree of vision and visual perception, in order to determine their level of influence on attention. Thus, in addition to describing pathologies and synthesizing repercussions for the improvement of school performance, the Master enables the future expert in the design of intervention plans oriented to the reinforcement of optical-ocular abilities and focused on psychomotor stimulation. This program, among other things, will facilitate the discernment of the phases where the confusion of external information takes place in disability, which will clarify the causes and boost the well-being of its students, thus leading them to curricular adaptation.
