Teaching methodologies and assessment
Teaching methodologies and assessment
The teaching and learning methodology combines synchronous and asynchronous interaction modes. Synchronous sessions take place at a pre-scheduled time, where students and instructors interact in real-time via Zoom, enabling collaborative work, group activities, and the application of diverse learning methodologies. Synchronous communication facilitates the clarification of doubts and contextualization of content. Asynchronous communication occurs without the need for real-time interaction, providing flexibility in learning. It includes resources such as discussion forums, email, Moodle, Turnitin, and shared videos. The use of digital tools such as Google for Education (Google Scholar, Docs, Forms, Drive, and Slides), Prezi, and Canva is also planned to complement the learning process.
