Teaching methodologies and assessment
Teaching methodologies and assessment
The teaching methodologies are based on oral exposition with the support of datashow and demonstration videos. The autonomous research of knowledge is promoted for the elaboration of an individual work within the scope of the topics taught in the classroom. The final classification of the course corresponds to 50% of the assessment of the individual work and 50% of the assessment of the group reports.
