  • MetodologiaMethodology
    A diverse set of teaching methods will be used to promote participants' ability to learn and encourage their autonomy of thought and reflection. Given the theoretical-practical nature of the UC, teaching methods include expository and interrogative, on the one hand, active methods, with the carrying out of small case studies and the presentation of practical work, on the other. Classes include an expository component presenting the theoretical foundations and basic concepts of each topic covered. For this exhibition, PowerPoint presentations, videos, web content or articles are used as support for additional reading and the presentation of real cases. Whenever possible, practical exercises will be carried out with students. In this sense, regular attendance and punctuality at all UC sessions are necessary conditions. Students may be asked to read selected teaching materials to prepare for the next class.
