  • MetodologiaMethodology
    The curricular unit's teaching and learning methodologies have been designed to be fully congruent with the institution's pedagogical model and with the unit's specific objectives. Adopting an essentially experimental teaching method, the focus is on offering moments of presentation of examples in which all students are invited to present their own examples; moments of debate and critical and collective discussion where attitudes of a democratic and humanist nature prevail, such as respect, courtesy, help and the sharing of ideas and references Finally, in the gradual development of the project, the accompaniment is tutorial and individualized, allowing instruction adapted to the needs and artistic objective of each student.
