• Classes will be taught using slides and videos. The contents will be transmitted in the expository form. Topics will be discussed among all students. Continuous assessment will involve the completion of two individual written tests. The minimum grade required in each of the frequencies is 9.0 values. The practical evaluation may include group work with presentation and discussion, written test or worksheet on the topics developed together with the evaluation of participation in practical classes. The minimum grade required in each of the evaluations is 9.0 values. Calculation of the final classification: arithmetic mean of the theoretical component - 50% and of the practical component - 50%. The classification of all assessment instruments is expressed on a scale of 0 to 20 values, and the weighted value of the classifications obtained must be equal to or greater than 9.5 values.
