Teaching Methodologies and Assessment Criteria |
The teaching-learning activities consist of theoretical and, essentially, theoretical-practical classes. Theoretical classes are, for the most part, interactive, with the exposition of the material done in order to encourage the participation of students in the course of the class. In theoretical-practical classes, the problems of application of matter are solved by the students, checking the intervention of the teacher with some explanation theoretical only when one observes the generalized difficulty in solving the questions raised.
