Demonstration of the coherence between the teaching methodologies and the learning outcomes

The teaching methodology assumes theoretical-practical characteristics appropriate to the nature of the subjects taught and the objectives of the curricular unit. The spirit of reflection and discovery is encouraged in students as a way of truly obtaining qualifications, both in terms of the assimilation of theoretical knowledge and in terms of the ability to solve problems in practical situations, in a real context. In this way, the defined objectives will be achieved, both in terms of understanding the concepts and in terms of the ability to apply them in practice.
