Assesssment methods and criteria:

Classification Type: Quantitative (0-20)

Evaluation Methodology: The theoretical-practical classes will be used for oral presentation by the teacher and students, based on the presentation and reflection on selected texts for the creation of the conceptual framework that guides and fundamentally the development of pedagogical activities and resources. The practical sessions will have a laboratory character based on active methodologies, based on strategies and resources such as exposition, debate, document analysis, individual work and group work for critical reflection on the topics addressed. The weighting of the assessment components will be as follows: 25% for the construction of a group portfolio of reading and writing activities; 25% for the planning of an activity / class, based on a specific method of reading and writing, also performed in groups; 40% for an individual test; and 10% for commitment, attendance, punctuality and responsibility.
