Teaching method

Teacher training supervision is to be developed in an instructive, collaborative and reflective perspective and should lead to a reflection on the teaching process and the professional and personal development, open to innovation and transformation. It also aims at promoting critical thought and reflective skills, without losing sight of the research dimension.

Evaluation method

Formative and summative assessment and evaluation of all the work produced within the teacher training experience.
