Teaching Methods
Curricular unit organized into theoretical classes and tutorials, in accordance with the school regulations of the University of Évora. Theoretical classes are plenary and based on the scientific method, valuing information research, interpretation of results and a critical attitude and scientific rigor in students.
Student-centered teaching model, with active pedagogical strategies, making the relationships between the curriculum and its applicability to real problems implicit. We highlight the possibility of using the strategies:
a) application and understanding exercises, case studies, debates and video viewing;
b) articulation between moments of speech and audiovisual resources that facilitate understanding, attention and involve the active participation of students;
c) use of interactive digital resources, including the Moodle platform and collaborative software (e.g., Google sheets and Padlet);
d) collaborative approach based on team-based learning, to analyze/discuss
