Teaching Methodologies
The teaching methods used in the curricular unit are the expository, demonstrative and active methods.
In the classes of the theoretical matrix aimed at learning concepts, the expository method is used using audiovisual and interactive means between teacher and students.
In the classes of the theoretical-practical matrix (demonstrative teaching method) and of practical matrix (active teaching method) aimed at learning a certain subject through the analysis of problems and the use of real life problems to stimulate the development of critical thinking and problem-solving skills and the learning of fundamental concepts will be used the methods of teaching case study and Problem Based Learning (PBL).
In the scope of the classes of the theoretical-practical matrix are also carried out, study visits aimed at deepening the knowledge acquired in the classroom. It is intended that students develop group and individual work/activities, which are properly scheduled and planned at the beginning of the semester and monitored throughout the semester.
It is intended that in all matrices are used in classes, tools such as Mentimeter, Kahoot, among others, essentially in formative evaluation.
