Teaching Methods

This UC includes, weekly, a T (120min) and a LP (120min), held in the classroom and in the psychomotricity room, respectively. In the T class, the necessary contents for the contextualization and understanding of the interventions will be addressed using the interrogative, active and expository methods. In the LP classes, these contents will be transposed, using the methods already mentioned as well as the demonstrative method (simulation of practice) of specific methodologies of therapeutic intervention and moments of critical analysis.
The continuous assessment will be carried out through several activities carried out in small group and individually (50%) and a written test (50%). In each of the components it is mandatory to obtain a minimum classification of 10 values. Attendance at least 75% of sessions is required.
