Teaching Methodologies and Assessment Criteria Teaching activities take place on two parallel levels: presentation and discussion in class of the syllabus, depending on their relevance, and monitoring of the progress of work, on a daily and continuous basis and at points of situation scheduled for this purpose, with mandatory attendance .

With a view to understanding the content and exercising the aforementioned skills, three exercises are programmed:

Ex. 1 - Recognition of a route;
Ex. 2 - Organic and artificial objects; It is
Ex. 3 - Illustration of a text.

These exercises are framed by specific statements, regarding their general and specific objectives, methods, means, techniques, intended results and scheduling of status and deliveries. They are mostly developed in the classroom and monitored by teachers, although they may include preparation activities and some external research.
Language Portuguese. Tutorial support is available in English.
