Teaching methods
Hybrid teaching combining ex cathedra courses, practical work and project-based teaching. Ex cathedra classes in person, workshops online.
Evaluation methods
Formative assessment based on group assignments (60% final grade) with an exam in January (40% final grade). In September (second session), individual work based on the results obtained in the first term, to be handed in on the first day of the session. All useful information about these modalities is available on moodle.
