Assessment
The assessment in this curricular unit naturally considers the assessment regime of the University of Évora, which is divided into a continuous assessment regime and a final assessment regime.
In the continuous assessment regime, one of the final products for evaluation consists of an individual work of critical analysis of the observed reality, starting from the field work carried out, mobilizing, in the foundation, the research carried out in the area. The other final product consists of carrying out a group work on one of the themes associated with the syllabus, including research and analysis of relevant scientific articles.
Individual work (IT) - 50%
Group work (TG) - 40%
Attendance and participation (AP) - 10%
[Final Classification= (5TI+4TG+AP)/10]
