CRITICAL THINKING

To make students analyze reality, think in a critical way so that they can face reality in an objective way.

To reduce contents, work cooperatively between departments, and achieve a global and significant learning, beyond subjects.

To motivate students, engage them in the process of learning and reduce school failure.

To give the students the necessary tools and opportunities to express themselves appropriately, both orally and written, in different contexts.
