Methodologies
Methodologies   ::  
  Description
Other methodologies The teacher will propose activities during the semester, depending on the needs of debate on a particular topic, the development of exercises and problems, visits to companies in the sector, fieldwork on technology and/or practices with specific software.
Tutorship of group The teacher will propose tutorial sessions during the course to help the student in the development of the activities and work that are proposed, as well as to be able to resolve doubts related to the theoretical/practical aspects of the subject for the evaluations.
Lecture The teacher will use the "lectures" to convey to the students the fundamental concepts of the subject, clearly identifying the objectives of each block/topic, and specifying what the students are expected to know or be able to do as a result of the teaching-learning process.

Personalized attention
 
Lecture
Other methodologies
Description
In addition to the group tutorials that are proposed, the student can go to the teacher in individual tutorials that will be in the professor's office and on the days and times established at the beginning of the semester. Also, and outside these hours, the student can request an appointment via e-mail.

Assessment
  Description Qualification
Other methodologies In order to assess the practical knowledge acquired, different activities will be proposed during the course. 40%
Mixed tests For the assessment of the theoretical knowledge acquired, two exams will be held throughout the semester that will be face-to-face. 60%
 
Other comments and second call

In the second call, the same criteria will be followed as in the first call. Only mixed tests not passed during continuous assessment will be recovered.
