Teaching Methodologies and Assessment Criteria |
At the beginning of each syllabus, the teacher provides a theoretical presentation.
The classes then have a theoretical-practical focus, analyzing Portuguese language. Some Lessons are completely practical, with critical discussions of theoretical texts on the subject and exercises to apply the content taught.
Final assement will be conducted through one “question in class” (exercise) weighing 30% and a written test weighing 70%.
