The continuous assessment system is based on a teaching process orientated towards enabling the student to internalize Mediation and Negotiation techniques, by means of continuous practical role-play activities, putting into practice the theoretical knowledge acquired, thus making easier its understanding and management of its content. The academic activities will be divided in lectures, during which the program of this course will be developed, and they will be held in large group sessions; and practical sessions, principally consisting in the preparation and participation of students in role-plays, to be prepared individually or in groups, by means of which the knowledge and skills acquired during lectures will be put into practice. Also, practical sessions will include presentations, by students, on concrete topics related to the study program, discussion on working documents, debates and tests or periodical controls on the issues previously handled.
