The methodology used in each session is structured as follows: the sessions are oriented according to a methodological planning composing phases. Each phase is developed according to specific contents, articulated according to a class structure that includes theoretical and practical moments. The contents exposed and the exercises, as well as the results obtained, result from methodologies oriented towards the information concept domain that are related through dynamics of «transformation» that occurs when its characteristics reflect an alteration or a modification which gave way to a new "form"; A change from one "form" into another, a metamorphosis. Or by «transition» that occurs when its information characteristics represent an intermediate state, a change from one condition to another, a journey.
