The programme at a glance

1

the curriculum spans Education Sciences and Linguistics. It is the first Master's level programme in Italy for communication assistants (assistenti alla comunicazione), a key profession in any school attended by students, both deaf and hearing, who use LIS as their main communication language (e.g. with non-verbal autism, non-verbal syndromes, etc.)

2

the three partnering universities specialise in a variety of issues related to deafness and Italian Sign Language and offer specific training in this field

3

the degree programme is blended, i.e. it is designed with both on-site and online classes to allow students from the partnering Universities to take part in the training activities together. This will maximise the number of on-site activities, ensure interaction and favour workshops and active learning
