The methodology adopted in the theoretical-practical classes includes four different stages for each topic. The first contextualises the
students with the objectives to be achieved and the principles to be respected, followed by a theoretical presentation of the situation and
current methodologies, opting for the expository and inquisitive method, complemented by a summary of recent developments in
recommended methodologies. The third stage shows how to apply the knowledge acquired, starting with the presentation of solved
examples and reports of real situations, followed by the resolution of exercises. In the last phase, students work on practical technicalscientific
interpretation and research in groups, encouraging teamwork.
