- exposure to historical and epistemological notions, central to the content covered;
- reflection based on theoretical and critical texts;
- Theoretical and methodological explanations, with visual support, followed by discussion;
- exploratory and dialogic reading of texts or works proposed for application and / or questioning of key concepts previously discussed;
- Registration of the hermeneutics syntheses.
2. Autonomous work of individual research, embodied in the writing of a text of a scientific nature, accompanied by the teacher, where students explore, in the corpus properly choosing the productivity of the themes and concepts developed in the classroom sessions. This work will also be assessed.
