In the case of passing only one of the two parts, the grade will be kept for the second opportunity. The subject has a theoretical and practical character. Assessment system The assessment will be carried out by means of a set of commentary exercises, data analysis and case studies carried out individually by students in which the knowledge of the subject is put into practice. In this sense, it can be considered an ongoing assessment, as the tasks performed will be monitored periodically to comment on progress and difficulties. In the case of face-to-face students, this follow-up will be carried out directly in the workshops where the contact will be continuous. In the case of distance students, the work is individual, but the follow-up will be carried out through Teams, moodle, telephone or email where progress and interests and doubts can be raised. In this sense, the interaction with the student will be taken into account in the different sections both in the classroom option and in the distance option. Of course, distance students will have the recordings of the classes of explanation of the subject in the application in moodle and in Teams.
