Teaching method
The course will combine theoretical and practical sessions, including presentation, demonstration, practical activities, group discussion and reflection on the topics studied, including the view of teaching classes in video. Priority is given to the practical implementation of theory, interaction and active participation of the students, working individually and in groups.
Evaluation method
Students will carry out small individual assignments throughout the semester and a regular contribution during classes, 70% assiduity, will be subject to assessment (60%) as well as a final essay or written test (40%).
