The theoretical part will be carried out through expository classes by the teachers of the subject and part of the material used will be provided through the virtual classroom as well as a self-assessment test for each topic.
Autonomous learning is encouraged by the performance of a project on a course topic that will be selected on the first day of class and that the student must present in PDF format and orally in front of their classmates.
Through the learning and service methodology, we will work on the contents of the subject related to potentially malignant alterations.
In clinical and laboratory practices, the knowledge acquired will be applied in a practical way.
We will use the virtual classroom to hold a forum for the discussion of clinical cases that allow the learning to be applied in daily practice.
In the tutorials, the teacher will personally attend to the students to guide them and resolve any doubts that may arise. And to lead and guide the work that has to be done to pass the subject. They will be held in person.
A continuous evaluation of the students will be carried out for their participation and attitude throughout the development of the theoretical and practical classes (20%) and participation in the APS project (5%)
Theoretical exam (60% of the total grade): test exams (PEM) will be carried out throughout the course using the virtual classroom at the end of each topic (50%) and a final exam (50%) also test (PEM).
The work presented (15%) will be evaluated using rubrics by both the teacher and the classmates.
And it is essential to meet certain requirements to pass the discipline (only those students who meet them will be positively evaluated)
-Completion of the virtual classroom evaluation tests
-Present the work that was assigned.
