The methodology of the teaching-learning process will be diversified into three types of work that involve sessions of different nature, with groups of different composition according to their size and, consequently, the possibilities of developing activities of different kinds.
Each block will be treated throughout two expository classes and interactive duas in which the different approaches to the contents and blocks of this subject will be carried out; specifically:
a) Expository sessions in a large group: they include explanatory and expository classes, in which students will be provided with the fundamental concepts of the topics of the program, highlighting the most relevant aspects of the content of each of the topics. Didactic supports such as ppt presentations or audiovisual materials will be used to facilitate the monitoring and understanding of the content by the students. Its ultimate goal is the achievement of ideas and basic knowledge that the student will need for other types of subsequent work in the subject.
b) Medium group sessions (interactive group): they include sessions of a comprehensive-meaningful nature, in which it will be necessary to delve into the basic contents of the topics, taught in the expository classes, through activities of personal reading, reflection and raising doubts, or questioning the information. On the other hand, these session times will be used with interactive groups to organize and guide the guidelines for the elaboration of the different practical works of those topics or aspects of the agenda that require it. Presentations or presentations of the work in groups or individually will also be made in these sessions, as indicated by the teacher for each work. Finally, in these sessions the students will be provided with instructions for the development of the informational competence, regarding the use of BUSC resources (bibliographic-documentaries) or the virtual platform used for the development of the subject.
c) Small group sessions (group tutoring). Students will be organized in small groups based on the working groups established in the interactive sessions. In these sessions the monitoring and tutoring of the works will be carried out, and the guidelines for reorientation necessary for the timely preparation of them will be established. Trying to reserve the common tutorials for the attention of individual needs.
To evaluate the performance and learning acquired through a combination of formative and summative evaluation activities. In this sense, it is proposed to assess both the results of learning and the effort and progress during the development of the same, encouraging critical reflection and a constant addiction to the subject throughout the term. In line with the constructive vision of the learning process, it is intended that the student demonstrates not only a declarative but also a procedural and attitudinal mastery of the contents, through the analysis of examples and the articulation of relationships between concepts.
The student's work must be original. The delivery of a copied work will suppose the failure in the subject and the evaluation of the student in the following call. For evaluation purposes, the same work may not be used for several subjects, except in activities scheduled in a coordinated manner.
For cases of fraudulent performance of exercises or tests will be applicable or collected in the Regulations for the evaluation of the academic performance of students and review of qualifications.
A) Evaluation
The evaluation of the subject includes:
1) SPECIFIC TESTS (50% da calificación): An exam -proba obxectiva- (test and/or short questions) that would endorse the fundamental knowledge of the subject, both theoretical and practical. The contents of the exam are those related to the aspects developed by the teacher in the theoretical classes as well as the recommended readings. The student must obtain a minimum grade, which is set at 2.5 points, for the rest of the grades to be added.
2) WRITTEN REPORTS AND OTHER PRODUCTS (40% of the grade): Reports, case analyses, text commentaries or other written products resulting, fundamentally, from the work in seminars and interactive classes. This grade will be the result of:
3) ORAIS PRESENTATIONS (5% of the grade): students will have to expose the group work collected in the previous section. It will be evaluated, mainly, the presentation, the expository clarity, the capacity of synthesis, the coherence and the discursive organization.
4) PARTICIPATION IN THE CLASSROOM (5% of the grade): Attendance and active participation in class. This score is gradually reduced as class attendance decreases without a justified reason.
B) Clarifications about the evaluation:
1. CONDITIONS TO PASS THE COURSE: In order to obtain a passing grade, the student must obtain a minimum score of 5 points in the final grade. This score must be obtained from a minimum of 2.5 points (out of 5) in the exam. Only when the exam is passed will the rest of the grades be added.
2. ATTENDANCE: It controls the attendance in the face-to-face sessions. The number of absences will be an important consideration in order to pass the subject, so that:
- Exceeding 20% of absences without justification will entail not being graded in section 4 (participation in the classroom).
- If you exceed 50% of the absences will not be graded in sections 2, 3 and 4 (written reports and other products, oral presentations and classroom participation). The evaluation will fall exclusively on the exam, which will be scored on a maximum of 7 points, placing the pass mark at 5 points.
3. STUDENTS WITH EXEMPTION FROM TEACHING: Students should contact the teacher during the first two weeks of class to establish an alternative evaluation plan that will consist of: Exam (5 points, which will be required to pass to add the rest of the scores), dossier of practical activities (2.5 points) and theoretical work (2.5 points).
4. STUDENT WHO DOES NOT PASS THE COURSE IN FIRST CHANCE (ORDINARY PERIOD): In this case, the scores obtained -during the ordinary period- in sections 2, 3 and 4 of the evaluation will be respected. In no case will work higher than the scores obtained during the ordinary period be admitted.
5. STUDENTS OF 2nd OR LATER CONVOCATIONS: These students must, at least, pass the conditions indicated in section 1 of the present clarifications on the evaluation. If the student has score/s in sections 2, 3 and 4 of the previous convocations, this score will be kept up to date.
6. STUDENTS WITH FUNCTIONAL DIVERSITY. The student who presents some type of functional diversity or difficulty for a normal daily monitoring of the subject, whether this difficulty is permanent or temporary, must justify his situation through a document issued by the USC accredited service for this purpose and inform the teacher of this subject within the first two weeks of the affected semester, so that a work plan adapted to meet each particular situation can be agreed upon as soon as possible.

USC is a face-to-face University, so attendance and follow-up of a minimum of 80% of face-to-face and / or virtual class sessions, compliance and follow-up of teaching and learning activities is mandatory.
In case the student presents an absence or an unjustified follow-up to more than 20% of the sessions he will have a 0 in this section, and in case for some reason he does not attend 50% or more of the sessions, students will not have the option to submit assignments or other written productions.
Students with teaching exemptions must maintain, from the beginning, contact and communication with the teacher, which will inform you of the most appropriate channel for monitoring the subject in your case, as well as the work they will have the opportunity to perform, and which, for obvious reasons, may be of a different nature from that of the work of the students present. In this sense, the delivery dates and the criteria established by the teacher regarding the form and content of the work must also be respected.
Students are recommended to:
1. The organization and sequencing of the work according to the criteria established by the teacher; To go, the request for support and help is essential, so it is recommended to make sure of the direct information and never through the students of the criteria, guidelines and resources to take into account and carry out in this matter.
2. The maintenance of a continuous communication with the professor that guarantees the opportune follow-up of the subject, and the consultation of all those questions that may expose doubt or conflict for the maximum understanding of the content.
3. The availability of a computer with network access, or failing that the possibility of using computers according to each possibility and resource is essential, but in this time we live. This requirement is essential for monitoring the subject through the virtual platform that will be used as a teaching resource in the subject.
- Use the email account rai.
- Use institutional technological tools: Virtual Campus, Microsoft Office 365 and other tools provided by the faculty and authorized as institutional tools by the university.
-The mobile phone may not be used, except when it is used as a work instrument according to the instructions given by the teacher, with the students being responsible for the legal and academic consequences that may arise from an inappropriate use of it.
- Take into account that teaching-learning (classes / tutorials) is a private process, understood by private as a process of communication and exchange between the teacher and the student body enrolled in the subject.
