Teaching Methodologies
Articulating the theoretical dissertation with reflection and practices, the teaching methodology is structured in the presentation and debate of the articulating concepts of Educational Policies and Local and Regional Development (25% of the evaluation), in the realization of an individual written test (50 %) and in the elaboration of a portfolio made in a group, with scientific and pedagogical guidance, which presents a Case Study of an Educational Policy, exploring it from the normative frameworks, to local appropriation, crossing it with its meaning or impact on local and regional development as experiences (good practices) of Socio-Educational Animation, namely projects carried out or in progress, activities and good practices (25% of the evaluation).
Therefore, the assessment should preferably take the form of continuous assessment.
The evaluation can also take place by exam, in the form of a written test to be carried out at the end of the semester (100%).
