Teaching Methods
The teaching methodology includes:
a) Expositive method, with critical discussion of the key concepts;
b) Reading, analyzing and discussing practical cases, individually and in groups;
The methodological assumption is the integration / interconnection between theory and the discussion of case studies of diagnosis and intervention.
Continuous evaluation
Written test and a practical assignment. In none of them can they have a grade lower than 8.5 values. Each evaluation component has the weight of 50% in the final mark.
Final evaluation
Written test including a theoretical and a practical component. Obtaining any classification below 10 values implies non-approval. Each evaluation component has the weight of 50% in the final mark.
