The pedagogical model adopted by the teachers and the definition of curricular contents favor the practical component of learning, autonomous study and the active search for information by students, thus providing the desired skills to be acquired during the curricular unit. There will be an expository component for the transmission of theoretical knowledge, followed by demonstrations and illustrative examples, which will take place through audiovisual means.
