Becoming a father or a mother is one of the tasks expected to occur naturally during the development of organisms. The conceptions that individuals have on what being a father or a mother means, the adequate moment of undertaking this task and the factors that can influence the raising of children are countless. The course approaches the general question of why organisms (humans and animals) become parents and how the maternity and paternity tasks are developed in different species and cultures.

The infant development is a process of cultural nature, and therefore, most goals and achievements of development assumed as universal vary depending on the context and the culture of each community. This course will show why infancy must be culturally understood, and it will also examine the fashion how different cultures prepare boys and girls to become adults by promoting a critical vision on the cultural nature of childhood. The lectures, films and cases presented will offer different interpretations and they will question our ideas regarding childhood. Therefore, this course will allow understanding that they way how we regard childhood is as cultural, as the way how boys and girls socialize in cultures different to ours.

Lev Vygotsky is rapidly becoming one of the most influential psychologists of the 21st century, even though he was born over a hundred years ago, and died at the age of only 37. Vygotsky’s formulation of the project for a new, revolutionary psychology, a cultural-historical psychology, has fascinated students, researchers and scholars in the West since his work was first translated in the 1960s. Now new translations, uncensored and unabridged, permit a fresh appreciation of his ideas. In this course we will read the new translation of Thought and Language that is available in the multiple-volume Collected Works. This text, part of which was dictated by Vygotsky on his death-bed, is truly a culmination of his ideas and research. Our aim will be to achieve a deep understanding of the problem he was seeking to solve, the methodology he developed, and the project for a new psychology which he offered us.

This course offers the initial elements for the basic training on neurosciences given to people pursuing studies on the sciences of learning. We are to present the basic aspects of anatomy and physiology of the nervous system, emphasizing on the relation of the nervous system - behavior. Within the anatomic aspects we include a quick study on the structure of the mammals’ ´nervous system, by conducting a compared study on the species. Within the physiological aspects we include the study of the fundamental principles of cellular biophysics. This course is supported on interactive-audiovisual material and also on laboratories where the students can have a first encounter to the neuroscience of behavior.

This course corresponds to the logical continuation of the course Neuroscience I. For this reason, the criteria used in that course, are also used on this one. In terms of topics, this course offers an approach to the knowledge of the basic neurobiological process (perception, attention, emotion, memory, learning, thinking, language and conscience). The revision of each topic is conducted from a compared perspective of the species, providing the bases for the understanding of the psychopathology underlying the neurobiology. Likewise, we endeavor to bring the students closer to the experimental activities on neurosciences, by the conduction of several basic experiments.
