Description |
Laboratory practice |
The student will perform experimental procedures in the laboratory related with the theoretical contents of the matters Organic Chemistry 1 and Organic Chemistry 2, and will adquire skills in the preparation, separation, purification and structural determination of organic compounds. During the practices the student will have to elaborate a written report of the laboratory work, describing the stoichiometric calculations, reaction and work-out procedures, interpretation of the spectral data and answers to the questions posed in the scripts. |
Guest lecture / keynote speech |
In this activity, the contents of the subject will be presented by the teacher stimulating the student participation. Students should prepare before classes according to the teacher's instructions. |
Seminar |
In the sessions of seminar the students will participate actively in the analysis and the resolution of the problems. The bulletins of problems to resolve will be available in the web (moodle) prior to the development of the seminars. |
Workshop |
The workshops constitute sessions of work organised in reduced groups of students. In these sessions the students will perform oral exposures (with graphic support in the blackboard or by means of a presentation) over specific problems of the bulletins, on which they will have previously written a short report, that should be delivered to the professor at the begining of the sessions |
Mixed objective/subjective test |
In order to evaluate the knowledge and skills acquired during the course, a written test is programed in accordance with the calendar of the Centre. In this test the students will have to resolve questions and problems on the contents of the matter, that will be analogous to those posed during the seminars, workshops and laboratory practices |

Description |
The student will have the help of the professor for the resolution of the doubts that pose him during the study of the contents and in the preparation of the reports of laboratory and workshops. For the students with partial-time dedication or of specific modalities of learning or of support to the diversity the personalised attention will be facilitated inside the flexibility that allow the schedules of coordination and the material and human resources.

Assessment comments |
The
attendance to all the activities included on the evaluation (laboratory
practices, workshops and mixed test) is mandatory to pass the course. Thus, in
order to ease the presence of the students on the workshops and laboratory practices,
that it will be eased within the flexibility allowed by the coordination schedule
and the material and human resources available. Students participating in a
number of assessed activities not exceeding 15% may qualify as a “No presentado”. To pass the
subject it will be necessary to obtain a grade on the mixed text equal or higher
than 4 and to achieve, summed up all the grades of the different activities, a
minimum mark of 5 out of 10. Therefore, for the students with an average score higher
than 5 but that have not reached a 4 in the mixed test, the subject will appear
as “Suspensa” (not passed), with a mark of 4,5 in the record. Once the mixed test
of the 1º opportunity is finished, all the students that have required it would
have the chance to perform an oral exercise, with analogous activities to those
developed within the workshop sessions, with the aim of re-evaluate the initial
qualification of the workshops. In the case
of not pass the subject on the 1st opportunity, the qualifications obtained for
the laboratory practices will be kept on the 2nd opportunity. Hence, the
qualification of the mixed test obtained on the 2nd opportunity will substitute
that obtained on the 1st opportunity. Conversely, the qualification obtained for
the activity “workshops” obtained on the 1st opportunity can be preserved for
the 2nd opportunity or, alternatively, replaced by the grade
obtained on an oral exercise, with analogous activities to those developed within
the workshop sessions, with the aim of re-evaluate the initial qualification of
the workshops. Those
students evaluated on the 2ª opportunity will only obtain the maximum grade of “Matrícula
de honor” if the maximum number of these grades has not been obtained on the
first opportunity by other students. For the
students with part time dedication or of specific modalities of learning or of
support to the diversity, the realisation of the workshops and practices will
be facilitated within the flexibility allowed by the coordination schedule and
the material and human resources available. If those students have not been
able to complete the practices by properly-justified reasons, the grade of this
activity will not diminish his/her qualification, as the mixed test (both on
the 1st and 2nd opportunity) will include questions related to the practices and
will contribute with an 85% to the final mark. Furthermore, following the mixed
test both on the 1st or 2nd opportunity, all the students that have required it would
have the chance to perform an oral exercise, with analogous activities to those
developed within the workshop sessions, with the aim of re-evaluate the initial
qualification of the workshops (a 15% of the final grade).
On the successive academic courses, the process of education-learning, included
the evaluation, refers to an academic course, and therefore it would re-start
with a new course, including all the activities and procedures of evaluation
that are programmed for that course.

Other comments |
The contents and the competencies to be adquired in the laboratory of Organic Chemistry 2 and in Laboratory of Chemistry are closely
related, and both courses should be followed in the same term |
