Learning and assessment

Este programa de Máster en Derecho tiene como objetivo integrar los conocimientos teóricos y aplicados con procesos de evaluación que pongan a prueba los conocimientos, la aplicación y el análisis de la materia. Con este fin, la estrategia de aprendizaje, enseñanza y evaluación de este programa se ha desarrollado para ayudarle a construir su conocimiento de forma progresiva a lo largo del año de estudio y a desarrollar sus habilidades de investigación, pensamiento crítico y redacción.

Recibirás clases en grupos reducidos en un entorno centrado en ti y en tu desarrollo. Tu aprendizaje será guiado y apoyado a través de sesiones semanales de enseñanza y aprendizaje en las que participarás en una variedad de actividades. Por lo tanto, todos los módulos impartidos tienen un espacio de dos horas de clase cada semana durante el semestre en el que se imparten. En la primera parte del programa, la mayoría de estos espacios se utilizarán como tiempo de clase con aportaciones del profesor y actividades de trabajo individuales y en grupo. El tiempo de clase programado se utilizará para ayudarte a desarrollar tu comprensión de la ley relacionada con el tema en cuestión.

You will be required to work independently, prepare for all teaching sessions and take all opportunities offered to develop your skills and knowledge, contribute to small group discussions and engage with other activities supported through the Virtual Learning Environment.
