Teaching Methods
Methodologies aim to produce learning and form autonomous students in the formative processes. Strategies of transmission of content are associated with discussion and analysis of proposed issues, articulating the knowledge of anatomy and physiology with its clinical and conceptual for nursing. Strategies with skills development include the production of texts, theoretical reviews, presentations and classroom discussions. The students orientation is focused on analyzing problem situations proposed by students. Skills of writing and speaking are developed in parallel with the acquisition of knowledge.
Assessment is continuous, carried out in two individual tests. The final classification is the arithmetic mean of the results obtained. Students can choose a final assessment, carried out by a final exam.
