A specific section for laboratory practices will be created in the Moodle UDC platform, which will include guides and documentation of all kinds to facilitate its monitoring by students. |
| ICT practicals | Use of computer tools for the study of chromosomal evolution and chromosome organization in the nucleus. As for the laboratory practices, a specific section for the bioinformatics practices will be created in the Moodle UDC platform of the course, in which guides and support material will be included to allow the asynchronous realization of the practical exercises. |
| Seminar | In parallel to the development of the lecture sessions, the teacher will organize the progressive elaboration of a single seminar-dossier by the students, using various telematic work resources through the Moodle platform and the Teams team of the course, with the aim of completing the basic knowledge acquired in the lecture sessions with more specific knowledge.
