Methodology
The proposed teaching methodology and assessment may undergo some modification depending on the attendance restrictions imposed by the health authorities.
This is a fundamentally practical subject, with the support of the necessary theory, and the protagonist in the teaching and learning process is the student. Under this premise, the methodology of the subject has been planned, which complements the individual and collective practice around voice, song and gesture.
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.
