Teaching methodologies and assessment
Teaching methodologies and assessment
The goal is to provide students with up-to-date and practical knowledge, allowing them to keep up with innovations in the field. Theoretical and practical content will be made available digitally after each class. Synchronous theoretical classes cover ultrasound diagnostics, using audiovisual resources and active learning methods such as gamification and case studies. Theoretical-practical in-person classes reinforce theoretical content and prepare students for hands-on practical sessions. Practical classes include performing and interpreting ultrasound exams, with case discussions. Bibliographic research and report writing will be guided to encourage student reflection and creativity.
