The expository sessions will basically consist of the presentation by the teaching staff of the theoretical, conceptual and methodological framework of the subject, at the same time that the students can formulate questions and try to solve difficulties. The teaching staff will use the exhibition and the debate in a large group, promoting the reflection of the alumnado on determinate sup assumptions according to the contents addressed.
The interactive classes will seek greater student involvement through the development of a student-centered teaching methodology, project analysis and problem solving. All the tasks of the student (study, works, use of computer, projects, readings, exhibitions, exercises, practices ...) will be guided by the profesorado both in the classroom and in the sessions of tutoría.
In these, students will be able to ask specific questions in relation to their tasks or try to solve any difficulty.
In particular, the students must develop a research and / or innovation project with which the achievement of a practical learning is pursued through which situations are proposed that require identifying a problem under study,formulate it precisely, develop the relevant procedures, interpret the results and draw the appropriate conclusions.
The evaluation will be carried out according to the following scheme:
Part 1:
A) Research and/or innovation project (30%). Teamwork or individual work on a topic of interest. The difficulty of the chosen topic, the methodology followed in its realization, the presentation of the results found and the argumentation of the conclusions, among other things, will be taken into account.The productions delivered must be original; the delivery of a copied work will mean suspense in the matter.
B) Oral presentation (10%). The students will have to make the oral presentation and defense of a work. Correction in oral expression, synthesis capacity, communicative abilitiesas well as the correctness and argumentation of the answers and their adequacy to the possible questions that are formulated.
C) Collaborative learning (10%). Reasoned participation in the proposed activities and contribution to group dynamics will be considered.
Part 2:
Final test (50%). It will consist of a mixed theoretical-practical test on the knowledge addressed in the matter.
To overcome matter it will be necessary to overcome the two parts, 1 and 2.
Students with exemption from teaching must speak with teachers during tutoring hours in the first week of the semester, in order to specify the work plan.
Its evaluation will be carried out following the following scheme:
A) Research and/or innovation project (30%). Team or individual work on a topic of interest. The difficulty of the chosen topic, the methodology followed in its realization, the presentation of the results found and the argumentation of the conclusions, among other things, will be taken into account. The productions delivered must be original; the delivery of a copied work will suppose the suspense in the matter.
B) Carrying out tasks (20%). Individual work of the different tasks that will be raised in each of the sessions and will be explained session by session to the students of this modality.
Part 2:
Final test (50%). It will consist of a mixed theoretical-practical test on the knowledge covered in the matter.
To pass the subject it will be necessary to pass both parts, 1 and 2.
For cases of fraudulent performance of exercises or tests will be applicable the contained in the Regulations of evaluation of the academic performance of the students and review of qualifications.
Face-to-face hours: 21
Non-face-to-face hours/self-employment: 53
Total hours: 74
The active nature of the methodology requires the protagonism of the students in their own learning. Attendance at and work in classes will promote the acquisition of skills and the collection of information. Immersion in the recommended literature will help the student to advance in their learning and consolidate them.
The works that are evaluated must follow the guidelines of adequacy, form and correctness required of an academic work. For these purposes, the general guidelines established for the elaboration of the TFM may be taken as a reference, necessarily the specific indications that are made in the development of the subject
The work done by the students must be delivered, preferably, through the Virtual classroom.
Environmental Responsibility
Avoid plastic caps or other unnecessary outer wraps.
Whenever possible, use staples instead of binding.
Double-sided printing in “ink saving” quality.
Do not use blank sheets as chapter or part separators.
Avoid attachments that do not have direct reference to the topics developed.
Gender perspective:
It is recommended to use non-sexist language, both in daily classroom work and in the assigned academic work. Information can be obtained at the link:
Mandatory use of the rai email account.
Compulsory use of institutional technological tools: Virtual Campus, Microsoft Office 365, and other tools provided by the faculty and authorized as institutional tools by the university (Lifesize, etc.).
The mobile phone may not be used, except when used as a work tool following the instructions given by the teacher, making students responsible for the legal and academic consequences that may arise from inappropriate use of the same.
Keep in mind that teaching-learning (classes / tutorials) is a private process, it is understood private as a process of communication and exchange between the teacher and the students enrolled in the subject.
