Teaching Methods
In practical-theoretical classes the expository method will be used as well as case and group discussion.
Students will benefit from 1 hour of tutorial supervision. The individual and group activities carried out over classes constitute 50% of unit evaluation. The final individual work will have a weight of 50%. Alternatively students can make an examination including all contents which has a weight of 100% in the final classification.
