Methodology

The program of the subject will treat since the perspective theoretic -practical, by means of two types of sessions:

- At the theoretic sessions will realise generally exposures of the professorship with the support of audiovisual modes, predominately transparencies tracked of debates and/or works of synthesis at the classroom.

- The session theoretics-practical will be directed by the professorship. Also they will carry out practices prepared and directed by the students at bands reduced.

- They will realise practices at conventional rooms of Physical activity of the *UAB and at exterior rooms of the University. At the size of the possible also will realise visits at skilled centres related with the contents treated and at external rooms at the *UAB.

- This subject will utilise the resource of the Virtual Campus (*CV). At this room the students will find material educational that will aid the ones at progressing at the ken of the program. They will realise virtual debates at forums on motifs related with the program, proposed by the teacher and for the students.

- It Will be indispensable the active and committed turnout for part of the students. The reflection and the debate will be tools of habitual interaction.

- If circumstances allow, an activity in the natural environment will be scheduled which will involve an additional expense and one or two overnight stays.

Use will be made of individual and group tutorials, as well as the Virtual Campus.
										
											
										
											It will be allocated approximately 15 minutes of some class to allow students to respond to the surveys of evaluation of the teaching performance and evaluation of the subject.
										
											
										
											The perspective ofgender and inclusion in diversity will be valued in a transversal way throughout the subject.

  Our teaching approach and assessment procedures may be altered if public Health authorities impose new restrictions on public gatherings for COVED-19 (english).

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.
