Teaching Methodologies and Assessment Criteria |
The assessment of the curricular unit is based on the combination of practical and theoretical components, ensuring the articulation between the application of knowledge and the consolidation of conceptual foundations. Students will therefore develop a group project (60%), consisting of the elaboration of a Communication Plan to be presented in an open class, fostering planning, creativity, teamwork, and public presentation skills. In parallel, they will carry out two individual exercises (40%), designed to assess the understanding and application of the theoretical framework taught in the curricular unit, ensuring the evaluation of each student’s analytical and critical skills.
