Observations

Considering the operational recommendations for the maintenance of school and non-school activities in person, but in the impossibility of ensuring the face-to-face operation of all school activities of the 1st semester of 2020/2021 in the current pandemic context, due to the lack of physical facilities capable of safely accommodating the number of students in this cycle of studies, the Seminar component of this UC will partially flow the distance, with synchronous moments, making use of telematic means.
