The sessions dedicated to the expository classes will be used to introduce the basic contents of the topics that make up the program, emphasizing the especially relevant aspects and the relationships between them.
During the practices, problem solving will be addressed through the case study methodology. The seminars and laboratories will address tasks such as the resolution of exercises and cases, search for information or analysis of documents and readings, among others. In many cases, after their elaboration, there will be a sharing and/or debate about them. Some activities will be addressed individually and others in a group; some will be resolved in their entirety during class hours, others will begin during class hours and must be addressed/finished in the autonomous work part of the students, and others will be prepared in the time dedicated to autonomous work and will be resolved during class hours. This autonomous work will be guided by the teaching staff during the hours allocated to tutorials (mainly those included in the subject timetable), which will serve to resolve doubts and solve problems that students face in the teaching-learning process. The tutorials will also serve as a feedback channel on the results obtained.
The Virtual Classroom will be used as a communication and support tool for teaching.
The development of the sessions will be carried out in person at the established class times, being compulsory attendance at both sessions if you want to score in the continuous evaluation. Additional tutorials (not scheduled during the timetable of the subject), will preferably be carried out in person, although in certain cases they can also be carried out virtually and synchronously (through the institutional platform MS Teams) and asynchronously (through the virtual campus). In any case, they will be developed in the schedule officially published by the teaching staff.
The evaluation system will take into account all the activities carried out by the students: carrying out and active participation in the analysis of cases, debate and comment on readings, articles or news in the press, presentation and exhibition of works, completion of questionnaires on theoretical content and practical etc.
There are two opportunities to pass the subject. Students who do not pass the subject at the first opportunity will have the right to a second one, which will be the one that appears on their academic record in case the grade achieved is higher.
The evaluation system for these two opportunities, both for first-time students and for repeating students, is shown below:
Ordinary first chance. Continuous assessment is contemplated, combined with a final test.
A. Continuous evaluation (weight in the final grade: 30%), distributed as follows:
-A1. Achievement of laboratory practices (24% of the grade)
-A2. Elaboration of the works commissioned in the seminars (6% of the qualification)
In this part the following competencies will be evaluated:
- Use of practices: CB2, CB3, CB4, CT1, CT3, CT4, CT7, CT8, CT9, CT10, CT11, CE6.
- Preparation of the works commissioned in the seminars: CB2, CB3, CB4, CT1, CT3, CT4, CT7, CT8, CT9, CT10, CT11, CE6.
B. Final content exam (weight in the final grade: 70%): compulsory test in which the learning results will be assessed, and may include short answer questions, multiple choice questions, brief reasoning questions, or cases (real or invented) to which the students must give a solution, based on the theoretical content of the subject and/or the skills/competences developed throughout the semester.
In this part the following competencies will be evaluated: CG3, CG5, CG9, CB1, CB2, CB3, CB4, CT1, CT3, CE6.
In order to add B and A, students must obtain at least 2.8 out of 7 in the content exam. The added note must be equal to or greater than 5 points out of 10 to pass the subject.
Students who do not obtain any score related to the activities carried out in the expository and interactive sessions will only be able to obtain a maximum of 7 points in this call.
Second Extraordinary Recovery Chance:
The same evaluation system will be applied as in the first opportunity, that is, a new final content exam will be carried out, with the weighting established for the first opportunity, which will be added to the score achieved in the continuous evaluation.
In accordance with the Normativa de Permanencia vigente en la USC para los estudios de Grado y Máster (art. 5.2), mere attendance and/or participation in any of the activities subject to evaluation will mean that the student's final grade is different from NO PRESENTED.
Students who are granted attendance waiver following Instruction Nº 1/2017 de la Secretaría General sobre dispensa de asistencia a clase en determinadas circunstancias, will be evaluated with a specific final exam that will account for 100% of the grade.
For cases of fraudulent completion of exercises or tests, the provisions of the Normativa de evaluación del rendimiento académico de los estudiantes y de revisión de calificaciones will apply.
The development of the evaluation through the previous instruments will be carried out on the dates set in the calendar of final tests and class schedules established as follows:
- Final exam: face-to-face.
- Practices and seminars: face-to-face and/or non-face-to-face delivery by telematic means (through the USC virtual campus) and face-to-face resolution.
The subject is assigned 6 ECTS credits. Each credit is equivalent to 25 hours, with which it has a workload for students of 150 hours, among which are included as face-to-face activities: 33 lectures, 12 interactive labs, 4 interactive seminars and 2 tutorials.
- Attend and participate both in lectures and in practices and seminars.
- Consult the recommended bibliography.
- Examine the materials recommended by the teaching staff and/or delivered physically or through the Virtual classroom.
- Turn to teachers to clarify doubts, using tutorials and all available contact methods.
Teaching will be given in Galician and Spanish.
