Teaching Methods
In the teaching of the Curricular Unit, will be mobilized methodologies that stimulate the acquisition of knowledge and skills by students, involving them in the teaching-learning process. Theoretical exposure will be combined with research, reflection, critical questioning and analysis. We also plan to do tutorial sessions.
Individual and group work spaces will also be created, within the scope of the program established and articulated with the project defined by the students.
The evaluation will be carried out, based on a written paper, individual or group work with public presentation and discussion (70% Written Work + 30% Presentation and Discussion).
