Teaching Methodologies

According to Article 32 of the Academic Regulation of the 2nd Cycle of Studies of the Polytechnic Institute of Coimbra, this curricular unit, due to the nature of the defined competences, students can choose the modality of continuous assessment, according to the following criteria and procedures:
Continuous assessment results from the individual elaboration of two theoretical-practical assignments, with a total weight of 100% in the final grade (50%+50%).
Both are based on the production of teaching materials for the promotion and development of reading and writing in pre-school.
Continuous evaluation/assessment: Work 1 – 50.0%; Work 2 – 50.0%
Otherwise, in case the student intends to take the exam, he/she must fulfill two specific conditions:
a) the 1st to be submitted to theoretical proof of the contents taught throughout the semester and
b) the 2nd, prepare a plan of a practical task from a text and/or a work project included in the test statement.
