Métodos de ensino e atividades de aprendizagem

The teaching methodology is based on expository theoretical-practical classes and classroom practice.

The evaluation has a continuous component whose weighting in the final classification is 100%.

There is also a continuous assessment component, associated with an individual research work supported by the tutorial component of the UC, which has a weight of 10% in the student's final classification.

Obtenção de frequência

The minimum grade in the continuous evaluation by tests is 8 values in any of the tests.
In situations where the teaching staff deems it necessary, final grades greater than 16 may be defended in oral tests. If the student does not attend these oral tests, his final classification will be 16 points.

Once approved in continuous assessment, the student will only be able to improve the grade during the appeal period.

Fórmula de cálculo da classificação final

The final grade is calculated according to the following formula:
NF=0.9*EF+0.1*DSA;
EF- average classification of the 2 tests or the classification in the final exam; DSA- performance in the classroom .
In the case of evaluation by exam, the note of the PE component corresponds to the classification obtained in this test.

Melhoria de classificação

Once approved in continuous assessment, the student will only be able to improve the grade during the appeal period.
