Description |
| Guest lecture / keynote speech |
It consists of the presentation of a logically structured topic in order to provide organized information following appropriate criteria with a specific objective. This methodology is fundamentally focused on the oral presentation by the teaching staff of the contents on the subject matter under study. |
| Problem solving |
Problems related to the exposed theoretical approach will be raised. In general, they will be solved in class by the teacher with the participation of the students. |
| Supervised projects |
Design and development of works or projects that can be delivered during or at the end of the teaching of the subject |
| Laboratory practice |
Methodology that enables students to learn effectively through practical activities such as demonstrations, exercises, experiments and investigations.
|
| Personalized attention |

Gender perspective: as stated in the transversal competences of the degree (C4), the development of a critical, open and respectful citizenship with diversity in our society will be encouraged, highlighting the equal rights of students without discrimination for reasons of gender or sexual condition. Inclusive language will be used in the material and in the development of the sessions. Work will be done to identify and modify prejudices and sexist attitudes and the environment will be influenced to modify them and promote values of respect and equality. Green Campus Faculty of Sciences Program: to help achieve a sustainable immediate environment and comply with point 6 of the "Environmental Declaration of the Faculty of Sciences (2020)", the documentary work carried out in this matter will be requested in virtual format and computer support. If done on paper, plastics will not be used, double-sided printing will be done, recycled paper will be used and drafts will be avoided." |
