Teaching Methodologies and Assessment Criteria |
The teaching and evaluation methodology described is related to the student's need to explore the theories of IR with a view to their operationalization in the choice and treatment of each international reality that the student chooses to approach. The realization of these written works follows very specific parameters that allow the student to explore the various analytical and conceptual lenses and the theoretical imagination of the discipline, taking into account the learning related to the form and structure of essay writing, so essential for an informed, systematic and theoretically sustained international order.
