Teaching Methodologies and Assessment Criteria |
Verbal - The transmission of the contents of each module is based essentially on exhibition, however, the aim is also that there is room for Interrogation / Explanation leading the group dialogue.
Active - Execution of individual and group work, including exercises and laboratory experiments. These modalities are associated with the modules of the course and allow students to take responsibility and socialize.
