|
Organization and class distribution / timing
|
The The methodology will be active and participatory; in addition, it must facilitate both individual and group learning. The methodology will be applied through the establishment of work habits, including completing activities in the student's book.
All the students will participate.
· Introductory activity: 15 minutes, in pairs.
· Explanations and activities from the student worksheets: 6 sessions. Individual and group learning and working.
· Solving electrical circuits and their magnitudes: 2 session. Individual.
· Project of real circuit: 3 sessions. Groups of three/four students.
Each session: 55 minutes.
