General description A materia Urbanística 5 céntrase no desenvolvemento das competencias propias da planificación e deseño urbanos. De este xeito, ten unha orientación eminentemente práctica, abordando algúns dos temas máis relevantes na práctica urbana contemporánea, incluíndo aspectos de sostibilidade, igualdade, xestión, economía ou o marco legal e os procesos de tramitación. A aprendizaxe estrutúrase ao redor dunha serie de exercicios prácticos e proxectos de curso, nos que se poñen en práctica os conceptos e ferramentas introducidos nas sesións expositivas. O proxecto da materia desenvolverase nunha zona inacabada da cidade, normalmente asimilable a un solo urbano non consolidado, na que é relevante unha operación de rexeneración urbana adaptada ás condicións actuais e futuras. A figura urbana de referencia será o Plan especial de Reforma Interior (PERI), que intentará dotar a esta área das infraestruturas necesarias, integración de usos e tipos de edificación, apoiándose na formalización do espazo colectivo público e privado, na mellora da urbanización, e na resposta adecuada ás condicións existentes, a través de respostas rexeneradoras nos seus aspectos ambientais e construídos. A materia tamén apoiará o Taller do noveno semestre, seguindo o calendario, as pautas e os exercicios acordados coa materia Proxectos 8, que coordina ese Taller.

Assessment comments

Regardingthe general evaluation of the course, the following aspects will be assessed:attendance and participation in class and workshops, evaluation of group work,evaluation of individual work, final test (mixed and practical).

Topass the course it is necessary to pass each of these items:

-Class attendance: minimum 80% of lecture sessions and 80% of interactivesessions. In addition, the teaching staff will assess whether the assistance isactive through participation in the lecture sessions (answering questionsposed), in team corrections, or individually. Active participation may bevalued as an increase in the final grade.

-Workshop (U5): minimum 5

-Collaborative learning (Workshop): minimum 5

-Mixed test: minimum 5

-Practical exam: minimum 5

Inthe case of Fail in one of the items at the first opportunity, this item mustbe repeated and submitted at the second opportunity. Therefore, a list with theparts to be repeated will be provided. The grade of the first opportunity willbe "Fail" if any of the items has been submitted, but not passed or"Not Submitted" (No Presentado) if any of the assessable items hasbeen submitted.

Forstudents with recognition of part-time dedication according to the "Normthat regulates the regime of dedication to study of undergraduate students atthe UDC" the minimum class attendance will be 60%, both in the interactivesessions and in the expository sessions. The rest of the evaluation items will be thesame as in the general case. In relation to the final test, the provisions inarticle 12 of the "Norms for Evaluation, Review and Claim ofQualifications for University Master's and Bachelor's Studies at the UDC"(consolidated version 2017) will apply.

Academic waiver: it is not contemplated, as it is a subject in which the workshop is the fundamental methodology.

The detection of plagiarism, as well as the fraudulent performance of tests or evaluation activities, once verified, will directly imply the grade of failing "0" in the subject in the corresponding call, thus invalidating any grade obtained in all evaluation activities. ahead of the extraordinary call.

Second opportunity:

To pass the course at the second opportunity, it is necessary to repeat the assessable items in which a Pass has not been achieved.

The course work (Planning and Collaborative Learning Workshop-Urbanization) will be re-elaborated, amended or completed according to the indications of the tutors of the course. For this, it is recommended that students make use of academic tutorials with their corresponding tutors during the second semester. The coursework will be submitted, at most, up to one week before the second opportunity exam.

Students who have pending work not delivered will not be able to take the exam.

To pass the subject on the second chance, it is necessary to achieve a 5 each of the assessable elements:

- Workshop (U5): minimum 5

-Collaborative learning (Workshop): minimum 5
