Teaching Methodologies
Given the markedly theoretical nature of the course, the direct expository method will be privileged, using multimedia materials, especially in lectures. Students will be asked to be involved in their own learning process, namely by reading texts and/or analyzing other materials provided by the professor during the classes, as well as through the analysis of practical cases.
Periodic assessment includes two written tests; in both the minimum grade is 7.5 points. The final grade is calculated by the arithmetic average of the test scores. In cases where the minimum grade for approval is not reached, the final designation will be NRC.
The evaluation by exam, at all times, implies the accomplishment of a written exam (100%).
Learning Results
At the end of the semester, it is intended that students have acquired knowledge about media history and development.
They should be able to contextualize them socially, economically, politically and culturally, as well as to understand the impact of cultural products that they spread in these different dimensions. Another objective is to develop students’ capacity for critical analysis, promoting their autonomy in the perspective of what the media would become.
