Description |
Guest lecture / keynote speech |
O profesor impartirá os conceptos básicos para a comprensión da materia axudándose de presentacións e documentos que porá previamente á disposición dos estudantes. |
Seminar |
O estudante deberá preparar de xeito autónomo algúns dos conceptos ou contidos da materia, empregando os contidos básicos das sesións maxistrais e consultando a bibliografía que recomendará o profesor. Os seminarios serán postos en común durante as distintas sesións nas que o traballo dos estudantes someterase a discusión e avaliación. |
Laboratory practice |
O estudante terá que realizar descricións macroscópicas e microscópicas de criptógamas e completar un guión dispoñible con anterioridade á práctica e que será avaliado. Tamén se realizarán exercicios de identificación mediante o uso de claves, floras e monografías. |
Case study |
O estudante deberá realizar mostraxes en ambientes mariños e de bosque para a recolección de criptógamas representativas de ambos ambientes. Posteriormente, procesará os materiais recollidos, identificándoos e conservándoos en pregos de herbario que entregará para a súa avaliación. |
Field trip |
Realizarase unha saída ó campo guiada polos profesores co obxecto de que os estudantes se familiaricen cos ambientes naturais nos que se amosarán exemplos de criptógamas. Na saída o profesor impartirá docencia práctica en base ós exemplos que se atopen ese día. |

Assessment comments |
Students must pay special attention to the planning section. It is essential that they understand that to be succesful in the course they should work around 150 hours (50 presential). Non presential activities include (but are not limited to) studying for the final exam and preparation of reports. All students that participate in more than 30% of the activities of the course will obtain a qualification. To pass the course in the first opportunity, students must participate at least in 70% of the activities of the course. All students must obtain at least 4,5 points out of 10 in the written exam and 4 out of 10 points in the rest of the activities. To pass the course in the second opportunity (July) all students (depending on the grades obtained in the first opportunity) must take a written exam and/or a lab test. The obtained qualifications will be kept only during the academic term (January-July). On a case by case basis, those students that, for justified reasons, are
not able to participate in all the programmed activities will be given
alternative options to pass the course. Part-time students or students who participate in equality and diversity support programs are welcome to participate in this subject. The teachers will adapt the different compulsory activities in order to enable these students to fulfill the aims of the course.
