BASIC AND GENERAL
CB2 - That the students know how to apply their knowledge to their work or vocation in a professional way and possess the competences that are usually demonstrated through the elaboration and defense of arguments and the resolution of problems within their area of study
CB3 - That students have the ability to collect and interpret relevant data (usually within their area of study) to make judgments that include reflection on relevant social, scientific or ethical issues
CB4 - That students can transmit information, ideas, problems and solutions to both a specialized and non-specialized audience
CB5 - That students have developed those learning skills necessary to undertake further studies with a high degree of autonomy
TRANSVERSAL
CT9 - Develop skills in interpersonal relationships.
CT10 - Acquire critical reasoning.
CT11 - Achieve ethical commitment.
CT8 - Be able to work in an international context.
CT6 - Perform teamwork
CT7 - Carry out interdisciplinary teamwork.
SPECIFIC
CE4 - Know the main types of chemical reaction and their main associated characteristics.
CE13 - Be able to demonstrate knowledge and understanding of essential facts, concepts, principles and theories related to the areas of Chemistry.
CE15 - Be able to recognize and analyze new problems and plan strategies to solve them.
CE16 - Be able to evaluate and interpret data.
A) Large group expository classes: Lesson given by the teacher that may have different formats (theory, problems and / or general examples, general guidelines of the subject...). The teacher can count on the support of audiovisual and computer media, but, in general, students do not need to handle them in class. Usually these classes will follow the contents of a Reference Manual proposed in the Teaching Guide of the subject. Attendance at these classes is not mandatory.
B) Interactive classes in small groups: Theoretical/practical class in which applications of theory, problems, exercises are proposed and solved... The student actively participates in these classes in different ways: delivery of exercises to the teacher (some of those proposed in problem bulletins that the teacher delivers to the students well in advance); resolution of exercises in the classroom, etc. The teacher can count on the support of audiovisual and computer media, but, in general, the students will not handle them in class. Assessment tests are included if any. Attendance at these classes is mandatory.
C) Blackboard tutorials in a very small group: Tutorials programmed by the teacher and coordinated by the Center. In general, they will mean for each student 2 hours per semester and subject. Activities are proposed such as the supervision of directed works, clarification of doubts about theory or practices, problems, exercises, readings or other proposed tasks; as well as the presentation, exhibition, debate or commentary of individual works or carried out in small groups. Attendance at these classes is mandatory.
The qualification of the student will be done through continuous evaluation and the completion of a final exam. The student's grade will not be lower than that of the final exam or that obtained by weighing it with that of the continuous assessment. Attendance at small group classes (seminars) and tutoring will be mandatory in general
The continuous evaluation will include monitoring the student's personal work through written controls, the student's participation in the classroom and tutoring.
The final exam is intended to verify that the student has acquired the competencies and skills established for the subject.
Weighting of the evaluation: final exam 70%, continuous evaluation 30%
The following skills are assessed in the exam and in the work carried out throughout the course:
Interactive classes: CB2, CB3, CB4, CB5, CT9, CT10, CT11, CT8, CT6, CT7, CE13, CE15, CE16
Exam: CB2, CB3, CB4, CB5, CT10, CT11, CT8, CE4, CE13, CE15, CE16
For cases of fraudulent performance of exercises or tests, the requirements of the Regulations for the evaluation of academic performance of students and qualifications review will apply. "
Total hours of classroom work: 36 hours
Total hours of personal work of the student: 76.5 hours
Prior consultation of the materials available in the Virtual Classroom of the subject
Attendance and participation in blackboard classes
Completion of the proposed exercises and presentation of the solutions in the seminar classes
Participation in tutoring classes
