• MetodologiaMethodology

  This subject aims to encourage and support students in developing work through three different methodologies: 1) Theoretical-practical classes in which different image production strategies will be presented, analyzed and discussed; performing exercises; 2) Tutoring to guide students in the design and planning of their projects; individualized support for projects under development; 3) Group critiques in which students will have the opportunity to share, compare and discuss their options together with other students and teachers. During the continuous assessment period, students are supported in the conceptual and practical development of practical exercises and a subsequent digital portfolio. Continuous assessment (75% mandatory): Attendance, participation in classes = 20% Practical exercises = 70% (total) Final Subject Portfolio = 10% Exam: Theoretical work = 20% Practical exercises for the semester = 70% Final Subject Portfolio = 10%
