Teaching Methodologies and Assessment Criteria |
The type of classes in this course is fundamentally theoretical and practical, with the lecturer presenting the main contents in order to create a debate on the subjects covered - the aim is to create a learning environment in which the students interact with the lecturer, so the more theoretical contents will be presented using practical and concrete examples in the field of Sports Science. In this sense, the presentation and discussion of topics will be favoured, encouraging student participation by promoting debates and presentations. In the presentation of the topics there will be a constant concern to use tools such as videos, platforms for discussing topics, databases with relevant articles/information on the topics being analysed, among others. An exploratory teaching-learning process will also be sought, with analysis and reflection on the supporting bibliography for the various contents covered.
