Problem solving, classroom exercises
Lecture La lección magistral supone la presentación ante la clase de los contenidos de la asignatura con el objetivo de facilitar la información estructurada y organizada. Para ello, la exposición oral se puede apoyar sobre diversos materiales y medios didácticos audiovisuales que faciliten la comunicación. En los temas que así lo permitan, se plantearán problemas y conflictos a los alumnos para fomentar su participación activa. Para estar en disposición de participar de forma activa en las sesiones presenciales, los alumnos deberán, previamente, trabajar sobre los materiales, bibliografía o recursos que hayan sido recomendados por el profesorado.

Other comments and second call

The assessment of the subject will be carried out over a total of 10 points.

To pass the course, students must achieve a minimum score of 4 out of 10 in each of the written tests and 5 out of 10 in the overall grade for the subject.

Those students not reaching the minimum mark of 4 in any of the tests or who, having achieved it, do not reach an average mark that allows them to pass the subject, must retake the corresponding written tests in the Second Ordinary Call in order to improve their final grade.

In the Second Ordinary Call, a written test (7 points) will be carried out on the contents not passed in the ones took during the ordinary teaching period, the result of which will be added to that obtained in the rest of the assessed items. This written test will be taken on the date appointed by the School Calendar and by the Faculty.

In the Extraordinary Call of December, students will take a written test (10 points) on the date established by the School Calendar and the Faculty.

The possession and use of MOBILE AND/OR ELECTRONIC DEVICES is STRICTLY FORBIDDEN during any of the exam sessions. The simple possession of such devices, as well as notes, books, folders or other materials not specifically authorised by the teacher will result in the immediate withdrawal of the exam, expulsion from the same and a failing grade, and the incident will be reported to the Academic Authority of the Faculty so that actions set out in the Guidelines for Action in Cases of Plagiarism, Copying or Fraud in Exams or Assessment Tests, approved by the Standing Committee of the Governing Board on 29 January 2015 can be carried out.

 

Information about any changes to this Guide, will be properly provided using the available resources (classroom, Moodle, etc.).
