Teaching Methodologies and Assessment Criteria The work in this curricular unit is based mainly on the reading, analysis and critical discussion of texts, whether of a theoretical nature or based on empirical research. The importance of some expository moments by the conductor and other teachers is not overlooked, but learning and assessment are centered on the manifestation of reflective capacity on the part of students, both orally and in the production of summaries and reading sheets, leading to to the final elaboration of a scientific article.
Language Portuguese. Tutorial support is available in English.
