Teaching Methodologies and Assessment Criteria |
The assessment process is continuous and the criteria include the observation of communication and interpersonal skills, group dynamics, the resolution of theoretical and practical exercises and the reflection activities that make up the portfolio; a work tool built together with the teacher that helps the student to acquire more knowledge about their strategies. There is also group work, analysing and critically reflecting on a scientific article, which promotes interpersonal and communication skills. Processes of reflection and performance evaluation are also encouraged in all areas.
