The course unit is organized through a student-centered learning methodology, based on guided reading, critical analysis of content, discussion in thematic forums, and the completion of formative and summative activities. Throughout the semester, students carry out individual and collaborative activities related to the main themes of people management, promoting the connection between theoretical content and concrete organizational contexts. Pedagogical interaction takes place predominantly in an asynchronous environment, through the course unit's forums, complemented by clarification moments moderated by the teacher and by a synchronous session at the beginning of the semester and another during the semester.
The learning activities include case analysis, discussion of organizational situations, problem-solving exercises, and critical reflection on people management practices.
Continuous assessment integrates formative activities, e-folios, and a global e-folio, allowing the progressive monitoring of the development of the competencies and learning outcomes envisaged for the course unit.
