We consider fundamental the development of the problematization capacity by selecting the approach methodology, diagnostic techniques, analysis and structuring the program, as well as strategy development and transmission of appropriate knowledge to practical purposes, according to the scientific and artistic paradigms and idiosyncrasies force .
The skills to be developed are both heuristics, theoretical, methodical, deductive, inductive and abductive up, as is so typical of the arts.

Teaching Methodologies and Assessment Criteria |
Classes will discuss the points of the program and case studies of the application of concepts and different methodologies brought by the professor and/or guests. In the second part of the semester, students will present their pre-projects which will be commented on by another student. Given the eminently formative and teleological nature, the evaluation consists of the assessment of the pre-project thesis, taking into account the mastery of the concepts and subjects presented, and considers the degree of satisfaction of the objectives, the quality of the fulfillment of the tasks, the perception that the student reveals these factors, progression and attendance.
