The expositive lessons (theoretical) consist of expository and / or demonstrative sessions of content. To deepen and strengthen the exposed contents we consider the specialized seminars (interactive lessons), which favour the acquisition of specific competencies of the subject, and meaningful learning. In addition, practical lessons (interactive) have the objective that students acquire procedural and research competencies specific to the subject.
The tutor sessions are a direct and presential relation with the teacher, for continuous advice and deepening the theoretical and practical content of student work, and for answer questions.
Evaluation activities are twofold. On the one hand, the continuous evaluation activities, together with the sessions of tutoring, will allow the student to have a constant feedback of their progress along the course, with respect to their degree of skill acquisition as related to knowledge, as techniques and attitudes. On the other hand, the midterms and final exams will try assessing the level of knowledge acquired by the student on the contents of the topics included in the subject program.
The theory lessons are evaluated using a theoretical test, considering the domain of theoretical and operational knowledge of the subject, in addition to attendance and participation. The seminars are designed to deepen into issues through reading and discussion of articles and specialized texts, they are assessed through individual or group reports (team work), based on its quality (structure, originality, presentation). The marks obtained by students in the final exam will be worth up to 70% of the final grade.
To pass the subject will require a minimum attendance of 80% of scheduled classroom teaching activities. The same evaluation criteria will remain in the different calls.
