Teaching Methods
Classes take place throughout the third semester. In classes, case studies of different ages (child, adolescent, and adult) will be presented (expository manner and using audio-visual media), discussed and thoughted, with different psychomotor pathologies and in different domains of psychomotricity intervention (therapeutic and reeducative), relevant to the therapeutic intervention of psychomotor therapist.
The student assessment will be done through two processes:
Continuous assessment: individual and group thoughts (with consultation) based on case studies (final average ≥ 9.5 values).
Exam: a written test about the syllabus (70%) and an oral test (30%).
The student must obtain a rating ≥ 9.5 for each element of evaluation, in the two evaluation processes.
