Teaching Methodologies

The training is oriented towards the integration of theoretical knowledge (T) with practical know-how (P), present in almost all classes (TP). Students develop various activities and works that simulate situations of professional intervention.
This uc is exclusively continuous/frequency assessment that includes the following elements:
Element 1 (40%) – Theoretical-practical work (40 to 80 points);
Element 2 (40%) – Written tests (40 to 80 points);
Element 3 (20%) – Classroom participation.
The classification is obtained by the sum of the results in the 3 elements, but negative classifications in the elements 1 or 2 (less than 40 points) count zero (0) points in the sum of the 3 elements.
The appeal exam has as a condition of admission the achievement of a minimum of 40 points in element 1, and will consist of a theoretical test (100 points) and a practical test (100 points). To pass, students will have to obtain at least 50 points in each of the tests.
