Teaching Methodologies
•The methodology to be adopted, will be an active and experiential methodology.
•In order to be better able to incorporate the specific dynamics of a colony or summer camp, we decided to organize the unit as an intensive course, residential, essentially practical and experimental, in a vacation center, where these activities are carried out regularly.
•So we try to provide the trainees, the routines and the specific dynamics of a summer camp, as well as the daily life of an animator in this context.
• The assessment will involve participation in practical activities. The final evaluation will consist of: Participation = 10%| AEC = 10% | Theoretical Work = 10% | Practice = 50% | Preparation of support elements and practice registration = 20%.
