Lectures in which the theoretical content will be explained.
The interactive classes will focus on the analysis and commentary of different works or topics related to the program. The students, individually or in groups, will carry out reasoned readings that will be discussed in class, as well as works related to certain parts of the subject that they must prepare and present in the classroom.
It is advisable to consult the manuals before delving into the preparation of any part of the subject that should be the subject of comment and discussion in class in order to get a general idea of the topic in question.
Field Practices will be carried out in the classroom due to the impossibility of moving to any of those territories.
The evaluation will be carried out through written tests and work on the contents of the program.
The controls of the matter explained in the master classes will have a value of 60% of the final grade. The activities linked to the interactive sessions (readings and preparation-exhibition of works) will account for 40% of the final grade.
The final grade will be reached once 50% of each of the parts mentioned above has been passed.
Class attendance is mandatory.
In the interactive classes the list will be passed; an excessive absence, greater than 20%, will mean taking an exam on the subject related to the interactive classes.
On the second opportunity, those who have carried out and approved the activities corresponding to the interactive classes, should only examine the matter explained in the expositive classes. If the activities corresponding to the interactive classes are not approved, you will have to examine the contents seen in the interactive classes.
Students who are granted exemption from class attendance (following Instruction No. 1/2017 of the General Secretariat on exemption from class attendance in certain circumstances), will be evaluated with a specific final exam that will mean 100% of the the note.
For cases of fraudulent performance of exercises or tests, the provisions of the "Rules for the evaluation of the academic performance of two students and the review of qualifications" will apply.
