Learning outcomes are the product of having mastered the basic, general and specific proficiencies. Three levels are established:

- Optimum: 100% of the proficiency acquired; at leat 75% fully mastered.

- Average: Acquisition of the majority of the proficiencies of the subject; mastery of the specific proficiencies

- Inadequate: insufficient acquisition of the specific proficiencies

Students will be considered APTO if their learning outcome is optimum or average.

The expected learning outcomes of this course are the following:

LO1- To learn the fundamental concepts of early attention. To identify and describe basic psychological processes. To understand the bases of personality and learning in early childhood (CG8).
