Teaching Methodologies and Assessment Criteria |
We will hold theoretical-practical sessions combining the expository method with the application of pedagogical practices that promote autonomous work and the active participation of students in the teaching-learning process.
To this end, we will resort to exposing content and exploring documents/videos. Additionally, individual and/or group tasks will be carried out with a view to consolidating and deepening the syllabus of the UC (namely through the preparation and/or continuation of the work developed in classes), as well as tutorial monitoring to support learning.
