Métodos de ensino e atividades de aprendizagem
Theoretical-practical classes, supported by computer tools. Theoretical concepts will always be linked with practical explanations and students will be invited to carry out practical exercises on each subject.
Regular exercises will be carried out during the classes to be counted in the continuous assessment, which will allow the consolidation of the learning.
The continuous assessment will be complemented with a written test.
The final assessment comprises an exam and a practical exercise resolution component.
