Description |
Mixed objective/subjective test |
Written exam of the content of the subject, theory and problems. |
Guest lecture / keynote speech |
Oral presentation complemented by the use of audiovisual media and the introduction of some questions aimed at students, in order to transmit knowledge and facilitate learning. |
Laboratory practice |
Carrying out laboratory practices on the concepts of the subject. |
Supervised projects |
Throughout the course, a supervised project will be proposed, individually or in groups, related to the subject.
This will be obligatory, and its realization and public presentation will be essential to pass the subject.
The public presentation will take place in the hours of the subject, being able to agree with the students, in exceptional cases and always at the teacher's discretion, other defense schedules.
The details of the dates / deadlines of the works, as well as its content and its individual or group nature, will be published on the subject's website (Moodle) and will be made public in the classroom.
In addition, some exercises will be proposed, individually or in groups related to the subject. |

Supervised projects |
|
Description |
Supervised projects: Individualized tutorials are proposed in which the student will be guided in the correct realization of the project, providing possible bibliography and sources of information and advice in the different phases of its development.
Personalized attention will be totally analogous for students with attendance waivers and full-time students. The tutorials will be held at the times established for this purpose for the current academic year.

Assessment comments |
On the second opportunity or in the extraordinary opportunity, students must again deliver all the works and orally present them. Since class attendance is not evaluated within the subject, the requirements that those students with a class attendance waiver will have to meet, both first and second time, will be the same requirements as those without this waiver, being necessary the delivery in time of the supervised works and realization of the oral presentation of the even. The delivery of the works carried out in this subject: It will be requested in virtual format and / or computer support. It will be done through Moodle, in digital format without the need to print them.
