Methodology
The methodology will consist of lectures with explanations of the theoretical programme, which students must have read in advance the materials uploaded to the campus in order to make the most of interactive sessions,
jointly alternated with the viewing of practical cases; as well as practical classes with case exposure and presentation of various exploration tests.
The training activities will be focused on real cases that will have to be evaluated from the observation of video material and the results obtained in tests, applying theoretical knowledge.
Students will have to carry out the administration of a large evaluation test of a subject and to make the presentation of the corresponding pass, correction and interpretation in class.
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.
