  Description
Problem solving, classroom exercises First, simple exercises of direct application of the theory explained will be solved. Afterwards, more complex exercises will be proposed for the student to pose them. Finally, the teacher will solve the problems posed.
Laboratory practicals They are carried out in the Laboratory shared with soil mechanics at the of the Escuela Superior y Técnica de Ingenieros de Minas. Groups with a very small number of students will be created to practical work, entrusted to each group, consisting of carrying out the practices The practical work will consist of carrying out the practices indicated in the programme, and the preparation of the corresponding practical report. The students will have at their disposal the documentation and material necessary to carry out the practical work. material necessary to carry out the practical work. In this way In this way, with the appropriate clarifications made by the the student is in a position to carry out the practical work. practical work. The students will take note of the results and will prepare a report that must contain the theoretical basis, the practical practical implementation, the results obtained and the particular conclusions of their work. their work. On the other hand, they solve the exercises set out in the class of problems, together with others of greater complexity, using computer software. computer software.
Seminars Title: "Use of prefabricated materials in mining". Development: Delivery of didactic material prior to the face-to-face activity for its study. its study. Face-to-face activity: master class and work of handling of catalogues and other information
Assignments Students must develop a monographic work to be carried out individually and present and defend it to the individually and to present and defend it before the teacher and the rest of the and the rest of their classmates, consisting of a work in the field of the subject
Lecture Development: This is developed through classes with the use of waxed and multimedia presentation. THEORY CLASSES: Theoretical exposition, justification and development of the principles the principles formulated in the contents. Resources: Classroom equipment (video projector, computer, blackboard, etc.).
