Methodologies |
Description | |
Laboratory practicals | Experimental tests, problems or computer simulations. Students will carry out or follow an experimental protocol following good laboratory practices, the guide to good practices for handling experimental animals and/or genetically manipulated microorganisms. In these sessions, the results obtained will be discussed by the students and the teacher, analysing their importance and interest. In addition to laboratory practices, the student will carry out self-training activities: Analysis of relevant scientific articles on current topics related to the subject. Preparation of written reports, oral presentations or seminars on experimental or bibliographic work. Carrying out autonomous tasks online or in a computer room. |
Personal tuition | Specialized online tutoring through supportive and/or in-person educational platforms. |
Lecture | Presentation or discussion of the contents of the subject. |
Personalized attention |
|
|
Assessment |
Description | Qualification | ||
Others | The following aspects will be evaluated: -Attendance at laboratory practices (attendance and active participation in all training activities). Your grade will represent between 40 and 50% of the final grade. -Performance, presentation and/or defense of works. Your grade will represent between 15 and 25% of the final grade. -Delivery of practice report. Your grade will represent between 20 and 25% of the final grade. -Problem and case resolution. Content questionnaires. Your grade will represent between 15 and 20% of the final grade. |

Other comments and second call | |||
Continuous assessment. The qualification system will comply with the provisions of RD 1125/2003. As provided, the adapted teaching criteria that reflect the ULE Action Plan in force will be used, depending on the health situation at the time. The submitted works may be reviewed with an anti-plagiarism computer program. If plagiarism is detected, the work will be graded as failed. During the evaluation tests, it will not be possible to use printed materials or electronic resources (calculators, tablets, phones, computers, etc.), except for those tests that, under the express direction of the teacher, require the use of any of these resources. If any irregularity occurs during the corresponding exam or evaluation test, the exam will be immediately withdrawn, the student will be expelled and graded as a fail. In any case, the provisions of the internal regulations of the ULe included in the document "Guidelines for action in cases of plagiarism, copying or fraud in exams or evaluation tests" will be followed (Approved Permanent Commission of the Governing Council 01/29 /2015). |
