Teaching Methods

A student-centered model was chosen.
We intend to use the expository method in the theoretical classes, always using practical examples that encourage the active participation of the student, organized in small working groups, through analysis, critical reflection and discussion about the programmatic contents taught. In the theoretical-practical classes we intend to teach the themes interactively, resort to practical exercises using simulation, namely, how to build a research project, how to prepare a report, how to disseminate the results and how to apply them. them in clinical practice.
The evaluation will be continuous and culminates with the performance of a group work. The continuous evaluation resulting from the individual participation of students in practical work corresponds to 10%, the remaining 90% correspond to the evaluation of the written work done in group. The final grade results from the weighted average of the two components.
The evaluation by exam - written test.
