For the theoretical development of the course, the teaching approach covers different methodological alternatives and is also flexible: lecture combined with the analysis of articles, students’ exhibitions of theoretical aspects, critical comments, etc. The interactive sessions will deal with exercises and case studies.
Evaluation of this course will be based on an examination, the assessment of participation in both lectures and interactive sessions and the performance in the market research project.
Specifically, the course grade will be calculated by adding the following 2 ratings:
- Qualification obtained in an exam of theoretical content, which will contribute to 50% of the rating. The final exam will cover the entire program and include all material presented in class.
- Assessment of class participation throughout the course, which will contribute to 50% of the rating. Various exercises, case studies and other teaching materials will be assigned in class and will be collected by the teacher.
To pass the course it will be necessary (both in May and July) for the student to reach 40% of the possible score on the exam. Likewise, students must pass at least 75% of the tests proposed in the interactive sessions. In case of not reaching this percentage (75%), the final grade will solely be the mark obtained in the exam, which will be evaluated on 7 points scale, being necessary to obtain a 60% to pass the subject.
In cases of fraudulent performance of exercises or tests, the provisions of the Regulations for the evaluation of student academic performance and review of grades will apply.
Following the Instruction Nº 1/2017 of Secretaría Xeral, students who are exempt from attendance in certain situations will be evaluated with a specific final exam (100%). Exemption from attendance must be authorized in advance by the university.
Competencies evaluation:
Exam: CB1, CB2, CG2, CT1, CT3, CT4, D1
Classwork: CB3, CB4, CG3, CT2, CT5, CT6, CT7, CT8, CT9, CT10
The recommended time for passing the subject is as follows:
- Hours of face-to-face work in the classroom (expository, interactive, tutorials and exam): 45.
- Hours of autonomous work (autonomous study and preparation of activities): 67.5.
In this way, the activities involved in the learning, development and study of the subject during the course, as well as the different evaluation tests, involve a total of 112.5 hours of dedication by the student.
