Teaching methodologies
Teaching methodologies
A teaching methodology that prioritizes classroom discussion is adopted, using both theoretical (expository and interrogative methods) and theoretical-practical (practical exercises) teaching elements and strategies. The b-learning system will also be used, providing support materials for each class. This system will also allow for the sharing of content related to asynchronous classes. The use of digital platforms such as Kahoot will also allow for interactive moments in the classroom.
