Teaching Methodologies and Assessment Criteria |
Teaching methodologies:
1. Lecture,
2. Supervised group work,
3. Peer learning,
4. Project.
Evaluation
* minimum of 75% mandatory class attendance (theoretical and practical)
Continuous evaluation
* Theoretical component evaluation = 2 frequency evaluation tests (20%+20%)+presences (3%)+homework (7%)
* Practical component evaluation = final project (groups of up to 2 students, with individual evaluation) (50%) final grade = 50% theoretical component grade + 50% practical component grade
Exam:
* Theoretical component = 50%
* Individual project = 50%
