Methodologies
Methodologies Description
Guest lecture / keynote speech Lecture
Explanation and resolution of fundamentals.
Problem solving Medium group:
Study of cases and problem solving.
Laboratory practice Laboratory:
students will perform 4 laboratory practices (2 h per sesion) and an exam about the practices
Objective test The curse is divided in 2 parts, each one with their exam.

The first part includes: vectors, static and kinematics.

The exam will be held on a date fixed by the official calendar.
Objective test The second exam includes: dynamics of particles, dynamics of rigid bodies, fluids and waves.

The date coincides with the final exam which will be approved by the Xunta de Centro.


Personalized attention
Methodologies
Problem solving
Description
Tutorials about the lectures, the exercies, and other situations in relation with the course.

Assessment
Methodologies Description Qualification
Guest lecture / keynote speech Attendance at lectures is compulsory.

5 unexcused absences are only allowed.
10
Problem solving Attendance at problem solving is compulsory.

• It required a minimum of 3 partnership before each exam.

For the medium group:

• Each problem sheet will consist of a fixed number of cases.

• During this class it will be to explain the methodology.


• In total, there will be 70 problems (30+40). A minimum limit is required to score, 80 % of right solutions. Score will be distributed in the following way, if the student makes:

• Less than the limit, score is zero.

• Equal to the limit, score is 5.

• Exceending the limit, score is added one point per right solution.

• At this class the work falls on students. It will be valued both the contributions made by students and the group collaborations.

The qualification is presented at the section Objetive test
0
Laboratory practice Attendance at lab is compulsory. Laboratory practices must be made during the first year of registration

Qualification of the practices will be held for three consecutive years.

They will be not admitted lack of assistance without justification

Students must made 4 lab practices plus an exam about them.

Qualifiaciton of practices represents 10% of the total.
10
Objective test There will be a Objetive test that will be held during the four-month period, this exam represents 30% of total.

The test will be in 2 parts: theory (T = 40 % of the score) and problems solving (60 % of the score).

The theory test will take place either with problems or by your computer

Problems solving qualification is divided in two scores: the problems test (P = 50 % of the score) and the problems sheet score (E = 50 % of the score)

The total qualification is:

NOTA (E1)=0.4T+0.3P+0.3E
30
Objective test The final Objective test will include the second part of the course: dynamics of particles, dynamics of rigid solid, fluids and waves.

The exam date will coincides with the final exame date to be approved in the Xunta de Centro.

This Objectiv test represents 50% of total. It will follow the same criteria as in the previous test (40% theory, 30% problems exam, and 30% right solutions),


In July, students will only have to examine suspended parts.

Assessment comments

Final qualification is given by the equation: Nota = 0.1* Practices + 0.1*Asistence + 0.3*E1 + 0.5*E2

where:

Practices is the score of lab practices

Asistence is the ratio number of attendance/ total

E1 is the score of the first Objective test

E2 is the score of the first Objective test
