Métodos de ensino e atividades de aprendizagem
Theoretical-practical classes take the form of seminars in which the themes/problems contained in the program are presented and discussion around these themes is stimulated, highlighting ambiguous issues, main dilemmas, as well as the solutions found in practice. Students have the main role in the presentation/introduction of the class in the discussion of themes through presentation (oral and written) of works. Classes can be enriched through the presentation of specific and more up-to-date topics by national or foreign invited experts from companies or from the academic and social environment. Classes in which the discussion of the topic will not be preceded by the oral presentation of the problem by the students or in which a guest expert will not participate will be moderated by the teacher.
