Teaching Methodologies and Assessment Criteria Theoretical classes are aimed at learning concepts, principles and references, using the expository method, both for the introduction of content and for its synthesis, complemented by
active-participatory pedagogical methodologies. The theoretical component is evaluated by a written test. TP classes are essentially for learning related to the development of a product
idealized by students through a conceptual project (CP) carried out individually, whose progress is the subject of discussion in the classroom, with theories being revisited and the following
guidelines given. The CP is presented in the form of a report and oral presentation, at the end of the semester and also supported by the PL classes for proof of concept.
Language Portuguese. Tutorial support is available in English.
