Teaching Methodologies

T contents will be presented in expositive sessions. TP and PL sessions will be presented trough oral exposition, practical participation, demonstration, observation/correction and analysis of didactic material. The evaluation is continuous (CE) or by exam (EE).
CE
1) Written test – 60 p. (30%)
2) Practical evaluations – 40 p. (20%)
3) Laboratorial and/or field works – 80 p. (40%)
4) Presential participation – 20 p. (10%)
To get approbation in CE the student must have 30 p. in item 1) and 60 p in items 2) and 3).
EE
1) Test – 100 p. (50%)
2) Practical evaluation – 100 p. (50%)
To access practical evaluation the student must have 50 p in the test.
