In addition to contribute to achieve the general and transverse competences taken up in the memory of the degree, this subject will allow the student to get the following specific competences:
CE1 - To understand and use mathematical language;
CE2 - To know rigorous proofs of some classical theorems in different areas of mathematics;
CE3 - To devise demonstrations of mathematical results, formulate conjectures and imagine strategies to confirm or refute them;
CE4 - To Identify errors in faulty reasoning, proposing demonstrations or counterexamples;
CE5 - To assimilate the definition of a new mathematical object, and to be able to use it in different contexts;
CE6 - To identify the abstrac properties and material facts of a problem, distinguishing them from those purely occasional or incidental;
CE9 - To use statistical analysis applications, numerical and symbolic computation, graphical visualization, optimization and scientific software, to experience and solve problems in mathematics.
The general methodological indications established in the USC Mathematics Degree Title Memory will be followed.
Teaching is programmed in theoretical classes, small group practices, small group computer practices and tutorials. In the theoretical classes the essential contents of the discipline will be presented, and will allow the work of the basic, general and transversal competences, in addition to the specific competences CE1, CE2, CE5 and CE6. In the interactive sessions, problems or exercises of more autonomous realization will be proposed, which will make it possible to emphasize the acquisition of specific competences CE3 and CE4. Finally, the tutorials will be devoted to discussion and debate with the students, and to the resolution of the proposed tasks with which it is intended that the students practice and strengthen knowledge. In the computer classes, the MAPLE program will be used as a study tool, thus working on the specific competence CE9.
The virtual course or the Teams platform will be used as the mechanism to provide students with the necessary resources for the development of the subject (explanatory videos, notes, exercise bulletins, etc.).
The tutorials will be face-to-face
In general, there will be an assessment that combines a continuous assessment with a final test.
The continuous assessment will be based on the results obtained in the intermediate exams made by the students, as well as the various activities carried out in this area. It will allow verifying the degree of achievement of the specific competences previously determined, with special emphasis on the transversal competences CT1, CT2, CT3 and CT5.
Regarding the final and second chance exam, it will measure the knowledge obtained by students in relation to the concepts and results of the subject, both from a theoretical and practical point of view, also assessing clarity, the logical rigor demonstrated in their exposition. The achievement of the basic, general and specific competences to which allusion is made in the Memory of the Degree in Mathematics of the USC and which were previously indicated will be evaluated.
As previously mentioned, the evaluation will be carried out by combining a continuous evaluation with a final test.
The continuous assessment will consistof carrying out two intermediate tests. The mark of the continuous assessment (C), over 10 points, will be calculated using the following formula:
C=1/2*P1+1/2*P2,
with P1 and P2 the marks obtained in the intermediate tests.
Although the number and type of continuous assessment tests will be the same for the two theoretical groups, their content may vary depending on the theoretical group. The coordination and educational equivalence of the two exhibition groups is guaranteed.
With the mark of the continuous assessment (C), over 10 points, and the mark of the final face-to-face test (F), over 10 points, the final mark of the subject (NF) will be calculated using the following formula:
NF = max {F, 0.3 * C + 0.7 * F}
The final exam will be the same for both theoretical groups.
It will be understood as NOT PRESENTED who at the end of the teaching period is not in a position to pass the subject without taking the final exam and does not appear for said test.
In the second opportunity, the same evaluation system will be used but with the test corresponding to the second opportunity, which will be a test of the same type as the first.
The exam corresponding to the second opportunity will be the same for both theoretical groups.
Warning. In cases of fraudulent performance of tests or plagiarism (plagiarism or improper use of technologies), the provisions of the regulations for evaluating the academic performance of students and reviewing grades will apply.
