Teaching Methodologies and Assessment Criteria |
The classes in elapsing of the semester are of orientation tutorial. The professor presents topics on the several subjects of the curricular unit, for the student to develop in bibliographical researches in extra times to the classes. Of 2 in 2 weeks the student presents orally the results of their researches. In the end of the semester, the student has to present written works, in format of scientific article, with 10 pages at the most, on the subjects proposed by the professor.
The evaluation will be the result of 20% of the oral presentations, and 80% of the written works.
