Teaching methods and learning activities

The methodology is based on an active pedagogy, recognition of students as agents in the construction of their training. The approach of concepts and theoretical perspectives on educational evaluation is accompanied by discussion and expanded with the reflections produced from the submission of a project. So in contact time, students, in groups, present to the class a project of socio-educational assessment, emphasizing the methodological dimension. In time of autonomous work analyzing a project and organize your presentation to the class; structure a dynamic discussion and research literature to support the individual work. Students are monitored in tutorials.
