Teaching methods
The classroom lessons foresee two teaching modalities: the classroom lesson, lasting about 90-120 minutes and the group work composed by 4-5 students. The outcome of the group work involves the drafting of a paper that reports the analysis of a concrete professional situation in which the students have to apply to the theoretical items presented during lessons.
