Teaching Methodologies

Given the theoretical and practical nature of the curricular unit, moments of exposure of the contents of the program by the teacher are combined with moments of active participation by the students, through joint debates or reflections, which is an interactive process between teacher-students. It also privileges the performance of role-plays, works and group dynamics, given the nature of the syllabus of the course.

The didactic resources used include computer material (data-show, computer) and whiteboard, as well as material resulting from research, scientific articles, films and projects developed, with relevant development of program content.
