- The lectures are used to introduce and guide the development of the different topics of the program. In the classes, which will be face-to-face, there is a theoretical presentation of the most important contents of each of the program topics. The presentations are made on material available to students from the chapters of the textbook that constitute the basic bibliography of the subject and the different contents of the theoretical program are explained with the support of slides. Attendance at lectures is voluntary, although it is recommended that the student attend with some regularity because it implies a greater and faster acquisition of the specific skills of the subject.
- The interactive activities complement the theoretical contents and consist of the preparation of different practical works: critical comments, clinical cases, exercises, videos, handling of instruments /materials from the field and other virtual activities. The interactive classes follow the hybrid teaching model: part of the activities will be carried out in face-to-face sessions in the classroom (with compulsory attendance) and another part will be carried out remotely, asynchronously, through the virtual classroom of the subject, which will be available on the Virtual Campus for all enrolled students. The work done in class, in person, will be delivered on the same day of each interactive session. The work of the telematic sessions will be sent through the virtual classroom within the scheduled deadline for the delivery of each of the tasks. Attendance/completion of interactive activities is mandatory. If a student has missed an interactive or has not handed in the assignment within the stipulated deadline, and there is a justified cause for such absence, he/she will have the option to recover that interactive by doing an extra work.
As a learning assessment system, continuous formative assessment will be combined with a mandatory objective final test. Consequently, students will be evaluated through two criteria:
- For the evaluation of the theory, the student will undergo a final exam, which will consist of an objective test type multiple choice, of 30-40 items and 4 answer options. This test is mandatory and has a weight in the final grade of 60%.To overcome this part you must achieve at least 5 (out of 10) on the exam.
- The continuous formative evaluation is carried out from all the practical tasks carried out and delivered by the student throughout the course. Interactive content thus accounts for 40% of the overall grade for subject matter. To pass the subject, the student must have delivered at least 70% of the tasks set out in the interactive sessions.
Aspects to be assessed for the calculation of grades: For the score achieved in the practical activities to be counted in the final grade, the
student must have obtained at least 4.5 on the objective test. To add the interactive notes to the theory grade, the student
you must have delivered at least 6 internship assignments. Finally, to pass the subject it is required that the sum of the scores
weighted scores obtained in the final exam and in the practices reach a minimum of 5 out of 10.
These conditions will remain unchanged in any circumstance in which the students find themselves, including in the case of exemption from
attendance (the student must carry out 70% of the interactive activities and will have the possibility of recovering up to 3
interactive sessions handing in extra works).
This subject comprises 4.5 credits, which are equivalent to 112.5 working hours with the following estimated distribution:
- Attendance at lectures, practices an evaluation: 40.5 hours.
- Autonomous work: 72 hours.
For the proper use of the subject the student should have knowledge of psychopathology and psychological treatments.
It is recommended to attend theory class regularly; in addition, it would be desirable to update the contents of the subject. Finally, students must regularly monitor -at least weekly- the activities, tasks, materials and announcements of the Virtual Classroom.
The tutoring schedule will be set at the beginning of each academic year, but students can request a face-to-face or telephone tutoring by email.
