Evaluation Methodology:
The training methodology and the learning processes adopted aim at the responsibility in an evolution from the identification of concepts and situations, to the resolution of problems / case studies. They aim at the development of critical thinking for learning with a high degree of autonomy. As a teaching-learning strategy we opted for bibliographic research, analysis of documents in the context of community and family nursing, with problem solving through simulated cases. In this way, the different contents will be treated with an active-participatory methodology. The evaluation is carried out according to model B of the UMa apprenticeship evaluation regulation: 2 frequencies (25% each); 2 group assignments with oral presentation (25% each). The approval of the course implies approval in all components (minimum 9.5 val) and requires the presence in 80% of the hours. There is recovery in resource / improvement or special time of all evaluation components.
