Teaching Methodologies and Assessment Criteria |
As it is a theoretical-practical CU, the teaching methodology adopted is based on the exposure of a series of themes and contents covering the extensive breadth of the History of Art, from its beginnings to the avant-garde of the 20th century, encouraging discussion based on reading texts and analyzing works presented. Participation/discussion in the classroom context is encouraged and an individual work is proposed, which will consist of creating a Heritage inventory form (Material or Intangible), in accordance with UNESCO standards.
As History of Art is an inseparable subject from Cultural Heritage, a visit to heritage "in situ" is included in the program contents.
Additional bibliography and other support material for study/analysis are available for download on the Moodle platform, on the course page, as well as each class in ppt format, to support the study.
