Teaching methods

The course proposes a participatory and active teaching mode,
through methodologies that involve male and female students through discussions, enjoyment of video materials, and activation of cooperative group work. The course adheres to the experimentation of innovative teaching proposed by the University, providing different forms of active participation including online (such as flipped learning activated through the space on  Virtual; delivery of textual, multimedia, audiovisual materials,  presentation of individual and group activities; Google Docs or  Microsoft Office 365 that enable synchronous or
asynchronously on group projects, documents, presentations or activities for brainstorming; as well as the use of video game environments and social media). In addition, to facilitate learning processes in their  link with the skills and understandings of the different contexts of education, meeting moments will be proposed with witnesses privileged and experts operating in the territories, capable of stimulating the search for knowledge "beyond the classroom" through case studies and good practices. To this end, meetings will also be built in a perspective transversal between disciplines, involving colleagues/and in moments
joint training.

Assessment methods

The exam will consist of an oral and individual examination (with a vote expressed in thirtieths).

Criteria to assess oral exam will be:

- clarity in the presentation of the contents;
- ability to deepen and link the main issues;

- appropriateness in the use of specific terminology;
- critical analysis of the repercussions of the topics studied within educational

Teaching tools

During the lectures, technological devices and material for teamwork will be used. The lectures will be integrated with documentaries and films and deepening classes.
