1.- LABORATORY PRACTICES:
Indications and norms:

Students must attend the "laboratory practices" classes with the following material (mandatory):
- A towel, scissors (long-bladed, not school), a folder, sheets of paper, a ruler, markers (an indelible one), a cutter, tweezers or a spatula.
- Knife, fork and spoon, hair brush, keys, and other objects that can be useful to integrate them into the process of making support products.
- Each student will be responsible for their own material, taking into account the basic rules of hygiene and cleanliness that must be complied with in the facilities of the Faculty of Health Sciences.
- It will not be possible to share the material and/or tools in the development of laboratory tasks, except with the partner assigned at the beginning of the semester.

Evaluation criteria:

Regarding the final result, this methodology constitutes 60% of the grade for the subject, with the following aspects constituting part of the evaluation:
Attendance and active participation:
1.1 Attendance is/is compulsory and students must participate in teaching activities. Any absence due to a major cause must be notified in advance and documented subsequently as soon as possible.
1.2 Active participation will be valued according to the demonstration of the following actions:
- Recognize, handle and work with different thermoplastic materials.
- Understanding, development and realization in the pattern design process.
- Preparation and elaboration of splints with thermoplastic material, according to the instructions indicated in each session.
- Preparation and development of support products with low-cost material.
- Design and 3D printing of a splint and a support product
- Dedication outside class hours as personal work for the completion of the portfolio.
- Participation in the Service-Learning proposal: This activity is voluntary, and will be proposed by the teacher in collaboration with non-profit social entities. Participation in the ApS will be valued positively in the final grade corresponding to the laboratory practices.
- Cleaning and adaptation of the work space once each laboratory practice session is finished (disinfection elements will be made available to the students and the teacher).

2. Portfolios:
The students, in the month of January and within the term communicated by the teacher at the beginning of the semester, will deliver all the splints and support products made in the laboratory practices in a sealed box with name and surname.
It will be accompanied by a portfolio that will contain the patterns made in the subject and a description of each of the splints and products made, as well as a brief theoretical explanation of each one, according to the template published in the Virtual Campus of the subject.

3. Splints and support products:
They will be assessed individually, taking into account their adequacy to the instructions given in their preparation:
- Rest splint or functional splint, carpal tunnel syndrome splint, Quervain splint, tenodesis splint, Mallet splint and I-shaped splint (this one with 3D design).
- Support Products and Adaptations: production of 6 low-cost support products, one of them with 3D design.


2.- THEORY: FINAL EXAM, Prof. Sergio Santos del Riego and Prof. Jessica Garabal Barbeira, Score: 40% (4 points).
- Assessment of theoretical knowledge through a written test.


FINAL NOTE OF THE SUBJECT:

The final mark will be the sum of the previously expressed parts, with the following considerations:

- In the continuous practical evaluation, a minimum of 4 points (out of 6) must be obtained. Students who voluntarily participate in the Service-Learning methodology will receive 1 additional point in this part.

- In the evaluation of the theoretical final exam, a 2 (out of 4) will be necessary to make the sum with the qualification obtained from the practical evaluation.

-Internships are compulsory. The absence in practices, without justifying or justified, of a number or percentage that the teacher will establish at the beginning of the course on the total or hours or classes supposes a non-presentation or a failure of the subject, depending on the context.

- The qualification of not presenting or failing in the practical part does not prevent presenting the call for the second opportunity (July). In this call, a theoretical-practical exam, tribunal or similar (out of 6 points), at the teacher's discretion, and a theoretical exam (out of 4 points), at the discretion of the teachers, will be held with a high level of demand.

Teachers will deliver their REVISED qualifications, according to current legal regulations on exam reviews, within the period established by the teacher responsible for the subject, which will be half of the official deadline set in the Rector's Office for the closing and signing of minutes in the computer application. .

- The person in charge of the subject will carry out the final contextual and institutional considerations and will proceed to enter the final qualifications in the computer application and sign the minutes. The qualification system will be expressed by numerical qualification in accordance with that established in art. 5 of Royal Decree 1125/2003 of September 5 (BOE/BOE September 18), which establishes the European system of credits and the system of qualifications in university degrees of an official nature and validity throughout the national territory. of qualifications: 0-4.9=Failed 5-6.9=Passed 7-8.9=Remarkable 9-10=Outstanding 9-10 Honor Roll (Graciable).

According to the norm that regulates the dedication regime to the study of undergraduate students at the University of Coruña (approved in the Government Council of 05/04/2017), when a student has recognized his or her part-time enrollment status , you have the right to enjoy a flexible class attendance regime and to request the special academic waiver established in article 4 (section 5) of said regulation, as long as it does not negatively affect the evaluation process of the student. To this effect, the Academic Commissions of the different centers of the UDC specify the scope of the aforementioned waiver. Therefore, the granting of said flexibility to the request will be at the expense of the assessment and decision of the Academic Committee of the Degree in Occupational Therapy, taking into account the methodologies and evaluation criteria of the subjects.

According to articles 22 and 23 of the Norms of evaluation, review and claim of the qualifications of the university degree and master's degree studies (Modified by the Governing Council of June 29, 2017) the following will be guaranteed: Art. 22: Publicity of the qualifications: To guarantee the right to review the oral tests, the mark will be communicated within two school days following its completion, and the review will be based on the data collected in the minutes and, where appropriate, on the evidence engravings, writings and of another type collected in its realization. Art. 23: Students will have the right to review the activities, assignments and tests that serve for their evaluation and to receive a reasoned explanation of the qualification they obtained.

On the detection of plagiarism: "The fraudulent performance of tests or evaluation activities will directly imply the qualification of fail '0' in the subject in the corresponding call, thus invalidating any qualification obtained in all the evaluation activities for the extraordinary call".
