Teaching Methodologies and Assessment Criteria The methodologies used will be essentially exposition and student-centered, with an indication of tasks to be carried out for inclusion in class. Group work will be carried out in class and at home to prepare for classes or to build knowledge after the classroom teaching. These exercises are considered for evaluation as complementary exercises to the subject. In addition to these assessment elements, group work will be carried out outside the classroom, to analyze in a case study style, the application of the concepts taught in Chapter 4 and Chapter 6 of the program.
Student workers may have adjustments in the assessment, however they must contact the teacher to agree on the criteria and establish that the minimum for continuous assessment and for access to the exam also apply to their status.
Students can opt to be evaluated bycontinuous assessment or by exam. The option is available in Moodle (poll) until March 19, 2022.
Language Portuguese. Tutorial support is available in English.
