6 Final Project Integrating What Has Been Learned into a Project
The content of the classes will be both theoretical and practical. In each session, a brief amount of time will be
dedicated to creativity exercises. The teacher will cover the syllabus during the theoretical portion, and in the practical
part, the students will carry out related exercises. The distribution of time between theory and practice will depend on
the content load of each, with theory being the most determining factor in defining the time allocated to practical
work in the classroom. The theory explained by the teacher will later be applied to the evaluative exercises. These
tasks will be mandatory, and some of them will be reviewed in class so that all students can learn together.
Throughout the course, specific vocabulary and digital media techniques will be taught and applied to the exercises.
The final classes will be dedicated to the development of the final project, in which the concepts learned during the
course must be reflected.
