Teaching method

The contents of the course will be developed in practical classes, taken in field and laboratory environments, which promote direct contact of students with the various contexts and archaeological materials, as well as with the various instruments, techniques and methodologies.


The teaching is done through explanations and exemplifications, promoting the interaction between the several participants and the discussion of the works and strategies applied.

Evaluation method

Students will be assessed on the practical activities in which they participate, according to predefined criteria, which is worth 40% of the final classification. Once the fieldwork is completed, students will prepare a report of the work carried out, which corresponds to 60% of the final mark. The assessment will be made by the weighted average of the practical work and the report on that work.
