Teaching methodologies and assessment
We will privilege an approach centered on the student, with the classes fundamentally focused on the integration and critical reflection of the contents. In this sense, a set of didactic resources will be used, such as oral presentation, group discussion, case analysis, problem solving, as well as the elaboration of group work to developing targeted intervention programs in specific target groups.
