Teaching methodologies
Each group of students will be integrated into projects of different natures, taking place in a partner institution of ESS/IPS, with which they will create and implement an interprofessional project.
The diagnostic evaluation agreed upon between students, and the institution will include the characterization of needs, expectations, and available resources. The activities will be developed with the support and monitoring of the ESS/IPS teaching staff, according to the thematic area of the project, and the students will complete the project’s final evaluation in cooperation with the institution.
During the course, tutorial sessions will be provided for the analysis and reflection on interactions experienced by students to deepen learning processes.
The monitoring model is described in a specific document.
