Contingency plan
1. Modifications to the contents
No changes will be made.
2. Methodologies
*Teaching methodologies that are maintained
All of them, but with the necessary adaptation/s to online teaching, according to what is stated in the next paragraph.
*Teaching methodologies that are modified
The guest lectures/keynote speechs will be adapted to distance learning by substituting class lessons by online teaching (using Teams) with the corresponding records for asynchronous access.
3. Mechanisms for personalized attention to students
For the personalized attention, Microsoft Teams will be used (twice a week), as well as Moodle and the e-mail (in an asynchronous manner).
4. Modifications in the evaluation
The evaluation activities will be the ones stated in this teaching guide, but they will be adapted to an online evaluation system. In the workshop/s and the mixed test/s there could be a combination of written and oral problem-solving exercises.
*Evaluation observations:
The second opportunity will use the same criteria than the first opportunity, which are summarized in 50% continuous evaluation and 50% exam.
5. Modifications to the bibliography or webgraphy
No changes will be made. Teaching materials are available in digital format, either in Moodle or in the subject website.
