Métodos de ensino e atividades de aprendizagem

This UC comprises a theoretical and a theoretical-practical component. The theoretical component is taught in expository mode, through presentations with computer support from applications such as PowerPoint. An inverted class pseudo-ethology will be applied in which groups of students will expose the themes of the curricular unit during the classroom context, to other students, followed by a discussion of the content exposed by the students and possible corrections to these topics.

Fórmula de cálculo da classificação final

 Assessment at the end of the academic period:

NF = 30% T1 + 30% T2 + 30% AP

 T1, T2: written tests on parts of the content taught;

AP: Presentation of a theme from the curriculum, with presentation and discussion with the teacher and colleagues in a classroom context

 Exam (all seasons):

100% E

 E: exam grade

No minimum score is required in any of the assessment elements.
