Teaching Methods
The course will be developed in b-learning, combining a percentage of 70% of the classes in a face-to-face environment and a total of 30% online. The face-to-face classes will be mostly theoretical and practical and the synchronous distance learning hours correspond to theoretical classes and seminars with guest speakers.
The pedagogical model will be diversified including: expository lessons with presentations; discussion sessions with reading and critical analysis of documents, reports and articles/book chapters (individually and/or in groups) in the classroom; online seminars with guest speakers and study visits. Students are expected to read and prepare the necessary bibliography before each and to participate actively in the discussions during the classes. Trainees will develop skills associated with critical analysis, research, scientific writing, group work and oral presentation. Around 18 hours of asynchronous individual work, at a distance, complete the 60 contact.
