Performance and Institutional Assessment

Teaching Methodologies

The course is organised in such a way that its objectives correspond to the diversified methodologies inherent in the training and assessment activities that the trainee must carry out, which are identified and organised in face-to-face and distance synchronous and asynchronous modalities, allowing the trainee to build knowledge and develop integrated skills.

Tutoring sessions will be held and virtual forums will be made available in order to offer permanent technical and social support to all students:

MODALITIES

Face-to-face – 6 contact hours

Practical work (group or individual) 50%

Oral presentation of final work 20%

Note that the summative assessment takes place in the last session of the face-to-face modality.

Synchronous distance – 6 hours of contact time

Involvement/Participation 20%

Asynchronous distance – 8 contact hours

Involvement/Participation 10%
