Expositive and interactive methodology in the development of theoretical classes. Demonstrative and interactive methodology in theoretical-practical typology classes. And, finally, more active methodologies in laboratory practice classes for the development of experimental skills. Problem-based learning methodology and comprehension education will be applied through educational planning based on meaningful learning scenarios (simulation) in laboratory practice classes. Use of the e-learning platform for guided study, discussion and reflection. For the evaluation, peer feedback will be used.

Continuous evaluation = Frequency (60%) + Practical Test (40%). Students can choose to take a final exam.
