Course combines diferente types of learning experiences: Lectures (including
debates and discussions), group works, vídeos, paper and/or case study
discussions by students and/or role play.
Evaluation method
The
assessment of this curricular unit is done together with the block of
curricular units of the same area of knowledge. This assessment has 3 moments,
which together define the final grade of the curricular unit:
• Individual exam with a weighting of 50% of the total mark
• Group work with a weighting of 35% of the total grade value
• Individual reflection-action exercise carried out at the end of the
curricular unit, with a weighting of 15% of the total grade value. The set of
individual action-reflection exercises is a journaling activity, which will
constitute, at the end, a learning portfolio capable of synthesising the
contributions of the Executive Master for that student.
