Teaching method
This discipline consists of tutorials which will allow each student the opportunity to discuss his or her
research needs, interests, and the orientation they wish to confer on their work. These sessions permit:
• that students consider the methodologies that are most adequate to their interests and, should they favour them, they can study them further and test them;
• that selected research themes may be introduced, that concrete study cases and application may be explored, according to student’s specific interests;
• students to have access to the software they may need and, should they have insufficient practice in its use, be provided with suitable instruction.
Evaluation method
Evaluation will be based on a written assignment and its public presentation to colleagues and teachers.
