Teaching Methodologies and Assessment Criteria Classes will consist of oral exposition and via multimedia and interactive means of the various contents of the UC. A predominant didactic-pedagogical methodology of exposition/discussion will be adopted. A special focus will be given to the discussion of experiences within the planning of the training process, with students intervening in the teaching-learning process of the various syllabus contents. In some of the classes, a tutorial regime will be applied, to provide students with the opportunity to discuss more specific problems and cases related to the contents taught and, additionally, as support for the preparation of group work that forms part of their periodic assessment.
It will be decided to carry out two individual written tests (60% of the final grade) to assess the acquired theoretical knowledge, and to prepare two group assignments (40% of the final grade) that aim to evaluate the application of the acquired knowledge.
Language Portuguese. Tutorial support is available in English.
