Teaching methodologies
Teaching methodologies
The course will use different teaching methodologies: theoretical exposition (TM1), small-group classroom activities (TM2), large-group discussion (TM3), case study presentations (TM4), debate exercises (TM5), and snowball exercises (TM6). The assessment of the curricular unit is continuous in face-to-face mode and will consist of a written test (60%) and a written group assignment with oral presentation and discussion (40%). The group assignment should include a critical review, analysis, and evaluation of the scientific literature on a topic in sexology, along with administering a brief questionnaire to the general population. The results should serve as a stimulus for the oral presentation. * See observations
