Methodology

The course will be structured as a team project (an active methodology, very useful to take into account educational diversity), where involvement and participation of all students will be very important since the very first moment. There will be lectures open to students’ participation and in-class activities (study case, simulations and discussions), highlighting  students’  presentations.

Activities in this course are directed, supervised and autonomous. 

  • Directed activities are led by the teachers, and are carried out in the classrooms. These sessions take place in a large group and they include presentations, thinking and debate of the main contents of the blocks.
  • Supervised activities take place outside the classroom and include individual as well as in group tutoring, which aims is to ovecome difficulties, guide tasks and ensure the comprehension of the learning outcomes.
  • Autonomous activities are carried out by students independently, and include reading preparation, studying cases and some tasks to ensure the best academic achievement of the student.

 

Annotation: Within the schedule set by the centre or degree programme, 15 minutes of one class will be reserved for students to evaluate their lecturers and their courses or modules through questionnaires.
