As this is a degree in the process of being phased out, this subject no longer includes face-to-face teaching. Bearing in mind that students enrolling in this course must have already been enrolled in a previous year, it is understood that at that time they were able to attend the expository and interactive face-to-face classes.
In any case, it also has a bibliographic recommendation that can guide and help students in reading and learning the most important methodological, thematic and practical aspects.
The teachers of this subject will be available, for any doubt or clarification that students may need, through their e-mail addresses: marta.cendon [at] usc.es (marta[dot]cendon[at]usc[dot]es); mdolores.barral [at] usc.es (mdolores[dot]barral[at]usc[dot]es); david.chao [at] usc.es (david[dot]chao[at]usc[dot]es), with the possibility of arranging face-to-face or even online tutorials, depending on the part of the subject explained by each one, in this academic year 2023-24.
-As this is a subject in extinction, the only evaluation system is the completion of an exam on the dates and times indicated for this purpose by the Faculty of Geography and History, which will account for 100% of the grade for the subject.
-Exceptionally, during the exams corresponding to the academic year 24-25, those students who have passed the interactivity in the academic year 23-24 will keep the grade of the same. Thus, the exam exercise will be evaluated with the maximum grade of 6, to which, if it is passed (minimum 3 points), the score corresponding to the interactivity will be added.
-FRAUDULENT PERFORMANCE: 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.
This course includes student work equivalent to 150 hours (6 credits).
- Study of the contents of the programme.
-Use of tutorials for the resolution of problems and doubts related to the contents of the subject.
