Teaching Methods
he classes will be held by means of the sharing and discussion of acquired knowledge and through the promotion of debates on the issues addressed in each class. The practical component will be build on the launching and monitoring of a project design exercise focused in the area of ceramic and glass production.
The evaluation of student performance is mixed and shall be made through the analysis of their attendance and participation in class, as well as the intermediate assessment of results achieved and, at the end of the semester through the final evaluation by a jury.
