Teaching Methodologies and Assessment Criteria Active and cooperative teaching–learning methodologies were adopted, encouraging reflection and valuing both cognitive and interpersonal processes. The approach emphasizes the acquisition of concepts, problem-solving, research, and hands-on classroom activities, with a student-centered and face-to-face format
Assessment is continuous and distributed as follows:
A – Development of a 3D CAD project
B – Production of two textile/knitwear garments
C – Technical Sheets
D – Attendance and commitment
Submission of assignments: 100% of the required tasks must be delivered
Final Grade (NF) = 35%A + 35%B + 20%C + 10%D
The attendance requirement to qualify for the exam is a minimum grade of 6/20. Students are exempted from the final exam if their Teaching–Learning (TL) grade is equal to or greater than 10/20 (Pass)
Examination Grading: The work developed during TL is also considered in the exam
Final Examination Grade = 60% TL+ 40% exam assessment
Language Portuguese. Tutorial support is available in English.
