Teaching Methods
Supervision processes are developed with students, co-operating professor and the university supervisor, in the school context, complemented with previous and subsequent dialogues around lesson plans, reflective records and field notes known to all. The professional learning includes participation in the curriculum development in the schools, mobilization of disciplinary knowledge, collaboration and participatory research methods.
The investigative dimension advocates questioning and understanding the realities so that trainees can act justifiably, with the necessary autonomy to their learning and development.

Each component should have a minimum grade of 10.
