Basic and general
CB1. That students have demonstrated possession and understanding of knowledge in an area of study that builds on the foundation of general secondary education, and is usually at a level that, while relying on advanced textbooks, also includes some aspects that involve knowledge from the cutting edge of their field of study.
CB2. That students know how to apply their knowledge to their work or vocation in a professional manner and possess the competencies that are usually demonstrated through the development and defense of arguments and problem solving within their area of study.
CB3. That students have the ability to gather and interpret relevant data (usually within their area of study) to make judgments that include a reflection on relevant social, scientific or ethical issues.
CB4. That students can transmit information, ideas, problems and solutions to both specialized and non-specialized audiences.
CB5. That students have developed those learning skills necessary to undertake further studies with a high degree of autonomy.
CG2. Identify, gather, analyze and interpret relevant data on issues related to business and technology.
CG4. Develop critical thinking and reasoning, including ethical reflections on fundamental business and economic issues in the digital age, and communicate them effectively, both in their own languages and in English.

The course will be taught in blended learning using the Virtual Campus and MS Teams. The methodology that will be used in this course will be based on the following activities:
1)The teacher will indicate in the Virtual Campus the books, book chapters and in general the necessary material that is more appropriate for the follow-up of the subject, and will explain the most relevant aspects of each topic.
2) The students will carry out the practical activities that will be preferably of individual character. Several practical cases will be proposed that will have to be delivered on the corresponding dates according to the established chronogram.
3) Active participation of students in collaborative activities (mainly discussion forums).
4) Face-to-face sessions: there will be a brief review of the contents of each thematic unit, as well as complementary activities to those carried out individually by the students. The sessions will be held in the assigned classroom and will be broadcast synchronously in streaming through MS Teams.
The tutorials will have the objective of guiding the students and will be carried out through MS Teams.
For a correct evaluation of the competences that the student must acquire by taking this subject, the result obtained in a final theoretical and practical test and the continuous evaluation of the student's work materialized in his active participation in the programmed activities and in the realization of all those works, cases, questionnaires, etc., proposed throughout the course will be taken into account. Therefore, the evaluation system in each of the exam opportunities includes two instruments:
1. Theoretical-practical final exam of the topics included in the syllabus of the subject. Weighting: 60% of the final grade. It is a test composed of a part of theoretical-practical test type questions and another part, one or more practical exercises.
2. Continuous evaluation. Weighting: 40% of the final grade. Among the activities that will be valued through this second instrument will be class participation, the resolution of proposed exercises of content related to the subject matter, the completion of assignments and tests, tutorials and class attendance, etc. All these activities will be announced in the classroom.
Any student will be able to take the final exam whether or not he/she has done the activities proposed in the continuous evaluation. In case of not carrying out the previous tasks, the grade will come exclusively from the final exam and will opt for 60% of the grade.
The evaluation system of the students will be independent of their condition of repeater or not and of the call to which it is presented. Those students exempted from attendance due to official dispensation will take the exam on the official date and will be entitled to 100% of the grade.
For cases of fraudulent performance of exercises or tests, the "Normativa de avaliación do rendemento académico dos estudantes e de revisión de cualificacións" will be applied.
Face-to-face sessions for presentation of basic contents and practices: 12 hours
Tutorials in small groups (face-to-face or by MS Teams): 6 hours
On-site exam: 3 hours
Personal work of the student: 129 hours
It is recommended that students review the didactic materials of the corresponding topic before each classroom session. It is important that they actively participate in the activities and consult the bibliography and other recommended material.
Students should have basic knowledge of mathematics, such as solving systems of equations with two unknowns and working with logarithms, limits and sequences. Also, the use of spreadsheets would allow the student to quickly solve many of the exercises that are worked on in the classroom.
