Methodologies
Methodologies   ::  
  Description
Lecture Verbal presentation of each topic, relying on existing audiovisual resources (projector, cannon, computer equipment, etc.). The student is motivated to actively participate with questions and answers.
Problem solving, classroom exercises The teacher poses and solves typical problems on the topics of the subject. These problems serve as a basis for the development of other problems that will be raised in the seminars.
Laboratory practicals Apply, on a practical level, the theory of a field of knowledge in a specific context. Practical exercises through the different laboratories.

Description
It will serve to resolve doubts that have arisen during the study of the subject. It will enhance the student's capabilities, so that they are able to "learn to learn." It is intended that they be able to create their own mechanisms, so that based on what they have learned, they can expand, complete and experiment with their concepts, procedures and skills in both the academic and professional fields.

Other comments and second call

The evaluation will be developed throughout the course. The final grade will be the result of the weighted sum of the grades obtained in the exercises and practices, developed by the student in the different steps through seminars, works, problems and laboratory sessions, as well as the result of the different mixed evaluation tests that teachers carry out during the course. The sum of the grades for theory, laboratory and seminars or assignments, in the percentages expressed in the previous table, will result in the final grade for the subject. This must be equal to or greater than 5 out of 10 to obtain a passing grade or higher.

Evaluation in 1st call. The final exam of theory and problems will be composed of two parts corresponding to each block (A: heat transfer and B: electromagnetism) with the same weight in the final grade. To pass the subject, it is a necessary, but not sufficient, to obtain a minimum grade of 3 out of 10 in each of the parts into which each module is divided. If the minimum is reached in each of the parts of each module, the grade for the theory and problems part will be the average of the grades obtained. In any case, to pass the theory and problems part and therefore the subject, it will be necessary to obtain an average grade equal to or greater than 4 out of 10. The corresponding grade for the seminar or work and laboratory parts, will be added to this average grade. All parts are weighted according to the previous table. Attendance at laboratory sessions and the corresponding reports is mandatory. Failure to comply with this condition will imply a grade of zero in this part of the subject. Likewise, non-attendance to the assignments, or their non-completion on the indicated date (without prior notice if it is in ordinary class, due to continuous evaluation) or non-delivery of the reports will imply the grade of zero in this part of the subject. The sum of the grades for theory, laboratory and seminars or assignments, in the percentages expressed in the previous table, will result in the final grade for the subject. This must be equal to or greater than 5 to obtain a passing grade or higher

Evaluation in the 2nd call. The evaluation procedure in the 2nd. call will coincide with what was expressed in the 1st. call with the following exceptions: THEORY AND PROBLEMS: If a module (heat transfer or electromagnetism) has been passed in the first call, the student will keep the grade for the 2nd. call. and should only be examined from the pending module. SEMINARS: If the proposed seminars have been carried out in the continuous evaluation, the grade will be saved for the 2nd call. If they have not been completed, the student will not have the option to grade in that part.

OTHER COMMENTS: The teacher will inform prior to the evaluation tests and through the teacher-student communication channel that he considers appropriate (Moodle, bulletin board). announcements, the classroom, email...) of the additional materials, media and resources necessary for the development of the exams or evaluation tests. The use and mere possession of electronic devices that enable communication with the outside of the room (mobile phones, radio transmitters, etc.) are expressly prohibited. Communication between students or passing anything during the evaluation tests is expressly prohibited. If any irregularity occurs during the evaluation test, the corresponding Regulations will apply.
