Teaching Methodologies and Assessment Criteria Gradual explanation of the syllabus and resolution of problems.
- A total of 30 hours of theoretical classes (T), where the exposition of the programmatic contents is made.
- A total of 30 hours of practical-laboratory classes (PL), with practical application of the syllabus through the elaboration of exercises and practical works using AutoCad software.
The evaluation is carried out in two phases:
- Continuous assessment: written test (with a weight on the final classification between 30 and 50%) and practical assignments (with a weight on the final classification between 50 and 70%). The minimum attendance and competences (minimum grade) to be admitted to the examination are established annually in accordance with UBI regulations.
- Final Exam: The exam has the same percentage as defined in the continuous assessment. The practical assignments are also counted in the final evaluation, but their improvement is not allowed.
Language Portuguese. Tutorial support is available in English.
