The methodology and activities to develop in the course of "Graphic Expression in the Engineering" adapt to the demands of the European Space of Tertiary education. In this felt, the distribution go in the different activities of the 6 ECTS of this course that presents the continuation (with 150 hours of dedicación total) shows as the autonomous work of the estudantado convírtese in good measure in the main character of the his learning:
- Expository classes = 24 presencial hours (+ 36 hours of autonomous work = 60)
- Interactive classes = 24 presencial hours (+ 36 hours of autonomous work = 60)
- Group tutoring = 3 presencial hours (+ 6 hours of autonomous work = 9)
- Free tutoring = 2 presencial hours
- Examinations = 6 presencial hours (+ 12 of autonomous work = 18)
- Review of examinations = 1 presencial hour
Totals: 60 presencial hours + 90 hours of autonomous work = 150 hours

It appears so a factor that expresses the relation between it presencialidade and the autonomous work of the estudantado that require the activities mentioned. Like this, by each hour presencial in the classes, the students will owe to devote at least one and average, outside of the classrooms, to complete the corresponding notes to the different subjects treaties, to finish off the practices initiated or to apply the learnt the new situations.
In this way, the methodology employed in this course obeys the a series of activities than, put his character participativo, if they adapt to the system proposed in the EEES, with the clear protagonism of the autonomous work of the before mentioned students.

Specifically, to docencia of the course bases in the following activities, working in all they the basic competence, general and specific (CG1, CG2, CG6, FB2 and CEG1 in the case of the Agricultural Engineering and Agroalimentaria, and CG1 and CEFB2 in the case of the Forest Engineering and of the Natural Environment), and also the transversal CT2, CT3, CT9, CT11 and CT12 collected in this Guide:
- Expository or magistral classes in only group, where in the senior part of the time will do the exhibition ordeada and reasoned of the contained of each of the subjects of the course.
- Interactive classes of laboratory or practical with computadora in groups with one maximum of 20 people, imparted in the classrooms of drawing and of computing, to resolve exercises related with the different contents of the course.
- Group tutoring with one maximum of 10 people, realized also in the classroom of drawing or in the of computing to treat subjects related with the course that require of a senior attention customized.
- Free tutoringattended in the dispatch of the professor, in the classroom if they are of collective way, or through the Course opened of the course in the Virtual Campus of the USC, to treat to resolve all the doubts than envelope to course go arising along the course.
- Examination of the contained and of the practical application of the knowledges purchased.
- Voluntary reviews (and recommended) of the exercises of examination.
- Support in the net with one Study opened for this course in the Virtual Campus of the USC.

Additionally, in the course foresees to do a trip of studies, of assistance no mandatory and no avaliable, that will form part of the welcoming activities to the qualifications and that will have like objective inside the course know installations and constructive aspects of the exploitations agropecuarias of to facilitate his possible graphic representation.

The drawing is a fundamental way of expression for the engineer and the contents boarded in this course constitute a powerful tool of work in this felt. Therefore, the qualification of the students owed to reflect the level purchased in the necessary training for his correct utilization and presentation.

Like this, in all the exercises, xa they are of Practices or of Examination, will value two aspects:
1º.- The knowledges, the capacity of resolution and the space vision.
2º.- The accuracy, to lexibilidade and to pulcritude in the resolution and presentation of the exercise.

In this way, the qualification obtained in the correction of the procedure and results of an exercise, will be able to be recessed tie a 30% by bad quality of the presentation or by little accuracy in the drawing.

The evaluation of the learning of the students, and therefore the form to measure if it purchased the basic competence, general and specific marked for this course in the two qualifications, will base in one process of continuous evaluation that will entail a system of tracking and final examination (mandatory and complementary it this tracking, of character eminentemente practical) along the course. The continuation expose his main characteristic:

For the final grade of the subject, in the first or second opportunity, in addition to the exam described below, the completion and presentation of all the exercises of the practices (grade P, with a score of 10 points), both those developed in the interactive classes and the complementary ones that are proposed and that the students will have to solve and send also within the established deadlines (which will involve as a whole 35% of the grade of the subject). The teacher will receive the submissions of these exercises through the Virtual Campus at the times determined and will make their correction and subsequent comments, individual or group, through that same Virtual Campus. The resolution and submission of these materials will be mandatory, although students will have a reasonable margin of exemption, a maximum of 20%, if at any time they do not make these submissions (which in any case will reduce their grade in this section by having a grade of 0 in the exercises not sent).

FINAL EXAMINATION (first opportunity of the announcement in course):
When finishing off the first semester, in the month of December or January (in official date fixed put Centre), will realize a proof or final examination (with one attaches of 65% of the note of the course).
All the students will owe to realize mandatorily this final proof, than form part of the continuous evaluation of the course.
To approve the examination, there is that have more of 5 points on 10 (qualification E), but the course can be surpassed if the qualification of the practices compensates the deficit tie this note: if the final qualification (CF = 0,35xP + 0,65xE) is upper to 5, the course considérarase approved always and when the note of the examination And was senior of 3,5 points on 10.

EXAMINATION OF JUNE-JULY (second opportunity of the announcement in course):
In the case of not approving the course in the previous opportunity, in the following (in the of June-July) the students will realize a new examination of recovery of all the course, being the subject final qualification to the same conditions pointed out previously.

Summarizing, the overrun of the course (in 1ª or 2ª opportunity) requires to achieve 5 points on 10 in the his final qualification CF, taking into account that the examination (E) supposes a 65% of the note, and the realization and delivery of the exercises of the practices of classe and complementary (P) a 35%. In any case, initially is indispensable to get like minimum 3,5 points on 10 in the examination of the course for power take into account the another criterion of evaluation (this condition could saw modified in function of as if it develop the course by different reasons, but in any case, always would be of favourable way for the students).

In this way, the hours devoted to the course would adjust, more or less, to the foreseen:

6 credits ECTS x 25 hours credit = 150 hours of dedicación
24 expository hours + 24 interactive hours + 3 hours of group tutoring = 51 hours
Other presencial hours of mandatory character = 6 hours (examination)
150 - 51 - 6 = 93 hours of autonomous work
93 hours / 15 weeks of the semester = 6 hours by week
