The student will be able to:
-Identify, understand, and apply the specific vocabulary of visual language.
-Acquire, evaluate, and use information aimed at the analysis and study of works of art.
-Offer a critical evaluation of works of art in their processes and means of dissemination (exhibitions, museums, virtual reality).
-Consolidate individual and team-work habits that encourage self-learning and criticism.
-Acquire skills in the management of new technologies and communication tools.
-Produce innovative, imaginative, and artistic results in the fields of study and work of the discipline.
In order to facilitate and rationalize the teaching of the subject, the following techniques will be used:
-Theoretical sessions, in which, using the master lesson and with the support of images, texts, and other digital resources the different topics included in the program will be explained.
-Interactive classes, in which students, in small groups or individually, will analyze specific texts and representative works of art that allow them to put into practice the acquired vocabulary.
-Field practice, consisting of a visit to different buildings in Santiago that allow both the analysis of their architecture and the plastic collections housed inside.
-Individualized tutorials.
The overall grade of the subject will be obtained in its 100% by continuous evaluation, so attendance to class is mandatory, including field practice. An absence of more than 20% will mean the impossibility of being evaluated at the first opportunity.
The evaluation will be carried out throughout the course using the following formulas: the activities linked to the interactive sessions will have an assessment of 40% of the final score; the written test (exam) will correspond to 60% of the final score. It is necessary to pass 50% of each part to pass the subject at the first opportunity.
In case of academic fraud, as defined in article 42 of the Reglamento por el que se establecen las normas de convivencia de la Universidad de Santiago de Compostela and in accordance with the provisions of article 11.g) of the Ley de convivencia universitaria, the sanctions provided for by said regulations will be applied. Premeditated behaviors aimed at falsifying the results of an exam or work include plagiarism and the non-consensual use of Artificial Intelligence tools.
Second opportunity (July call):
1.- Those who have carried out and approved the activities corresponding to interactive teaching may retain this qualification and only have to examine the subject taught in the theoretical classes.
2.- Those students who have not completed the activities corresponding to interactive teaching, or who have not passed them, will have to attend the second opportunity exam, which will include the subject corresponding to both the theoretical classes and the interactive classes.
3.- The students who are granted the dispensation of class attendance (following Instruction Nº 1/2017 of the Xeral Secretariat on the dispensation of class attendance in certain circumstances) shall be assessed with a specific final examination which shall constitute 100% of the qualification. Notwithstanding the above, by mutual agreement with the interested party, the teacher may arbitrate the completion of substitute work for the interactive sessions, the approval of which would allow the student to take the exam in the first call.
The course consists of 6 ECTS credits, equivalent to 150 hours of student work, distributed as follows:
1. Face-to-face working time: 51 hours, of which
1a. Lecture time: 32 hours
1.b. Interactive teaching, including field practice: 16 hours
1.c. Tutorials: 3 hours
2. Study time and personal activity: 99 hours, of which:

2.b. Proposed readings, library activities and comment preparation: 27 hours
2.c. Other tasks, including attending lectures: 12 hours
-Attendance and participation in expository and interactive sessions.
-Preparation of the subject taught through the notes collected in the classroom. Complete them using the recommended bibliography.
