Teaching Methodologies and Assessment Criteria |
Methodologically, the classes will include moments of exposition of fundamental theories and concepts, and moments of reading and critical analysis of texts. The assessment consists of the preparation of an ecobiography and an open-ended written test. Each element has a weight of 40%. Active participation has a weighting of 10%. The assessment moments cover the basic skills of identifying and understanding the fundamental notions and distinctions in the philosophical problematization of nature and the environment, as well as the operational skills of ethical-political analysis of the problem of the environment and ecology in the contemporary context, as well as transversal skills, assessed especially in active participation in class.
