Description
The teacher, once the student gets to know the subject, will ask the student to indicate which institution they want to do a job about. This is intended to make interest the initial motive for the task to be carried out, and not a unilateral imposition by the teacher. Once the topic is determined, the teacher will provide the student with an initial and basic bibliography so that they can begin their work. During the writing and research process, the student must report to the teacher the progress or obstacles he encounters.
