Teaching Methods
Lectures - expository methodology, dialogue and debates to promote learning of key content, critical thinking and articulation of theory and practice.
Practical classes - diversified activities aimed at articulating theory/practice, developing a critical spirit, promoting problem-solving skills (e.g., debates, watching videos illustrating the application of programmes or projects; research; exercises to apply and develop skills). Oral presentation and discussion of work. Active participation. Collaborative work in groups. Gradual development of autonomy and creativity in the design of original intervention projects supported by the teacher.
Fieldwork - Contact with real contexts for observation, knowledge and identification of needs and problems; includes interviews.
Autonomous work - involves research, reading texts and preparing assignments.

Assessment
Continuous Assessment: Work 1) Study of an Intervention Programme and its critical analysis. Written assignment and oral presentation and discussion (50%). Work 2) Direct contact with a real context and preparation of a project to respond to needs. Written submission and oral presentation (50%). Each assignment includes two self-assessment forms: one individual and one as a group. Attendance must not be less than 75 % in theory classes and 75% in practical classes. If one of the assessment elements is graded below 8, the student moves on to the final assessment system. Final assessment: A written test and a practical component, including the two assignments provided for in the continuous assessment. A mark of less than 8 in any of the exam?s components will result in failure. The final mark is the average of the two assignments, plus the mark for the written test divided by two.
