General description Dada a amplitude de ámbitos que abarca o concepto de Patrimonio Cultural, o obxectivo fundamental da materia é aproximar ao alumnado a todos eles tendo en conta a súa vinculación co fenómeno turístico.
Prestarase unha especial atención á xestión do patrimonio e ao papel e importancia das persoas expertas en turismo con relación a ela. Farase especial fincapé no patrimonio histórico-artístico.
A materia pretende despertar a curiosidade e sensibilizar ao alumnado sobre o valor e fraxilidade do patrimonio, fonte de recursos fundamental para o turismo.

Methodologies
Methodologies Description
Guest lecture / keynote speech Oral exposition complemented by audiovisual media and the introduction of some questions addressed to the students, to transmit knowledge and facilitate learning.
Mixed objective/subjective test A test in which students will respond orally to short or wide-ranging questions, assessing their capacity for reasoning (arguing, relating), creativity, and critical spirit.
Oral presentation Intervention inherent to the teaching-learning processes includes verbal exposition through which students and teachers interact in an orderly way, raising questions, clarifying and presenting topics, work, concepts, facts, or principles.

It can be a part of tutored work or the assessment of part of the theoretical material.
Supervised projects This methodology is concerned with learning "how to do things".
Tutors will give all indications for individual or group work at the beginning of the course.
Field trip Activities carried out outside the university academic environment (companies, institutions, organisations, monuments) related to the field of study of the subject.

They may involve synthesis work or reviews included in the tutored work section.

Personalized attention
Methodologies
Oral presentation
Description
Personalised attention may be offered during seminars and tutorials, or individually, if required by the students and with prior agreement with the teacher, on an individual or group basis.


Assessment
Methodologies Competencies Description Qualification
Mixed objective/subjective test A1 A2 A3 A8 A13 A14 A18 A23 A30 A31 B1 B2 B4 B6 B7 C1 C4 It consists of a test that includes oral short or wide-ranging questions. The entire syllabus will be assessed in this test.
This can be done in direct contact with the heritage or through photographs.

Oral presentation A5 A8 A13 A18 A19 A29 A30 A31 A33 B1 B2 B3 B5 B6 B7 C1 C3 C4 C8 This presentation or oral test will assess the part corresponding to the city of A Coruña.
Students will do it in situ or in the classroom, according to the teacher's indications.
30
Supervised projects A3 A5 A8 A13 A23 A30 A31 A33 B1 B2 B3 B4 B5 B6 C1 C4 C8 Group and individual work that should follow the guidelines offered by the teacher at the beginning of the course.

The individual part will score 1.5 points, and the group part will score other 1.5 points.
The individual part will include exercises or questionnaires (worksheets) that may be done in the master class, which, in general, will be related to the contents of the work. This percentage may also include the reviews or exercises derived from the field trips.

Assessment comments

 Field trips, lectures, class attendance or other activities are compulsory and may require the submission of an outline, which will serve as proof of attendance. 

Those who, for a justified reason, cannot attend the day indicated for their oral presentation will have to arrange another date with the teacher.-

All parts must be passed by at least 50% in order to be able to make the final calculation. Those students who fail any part will appear with the grade obtained in the failed part until the final assessment can be made at the next attempt once they passed all modules. Students who release a part of the subject by means of a partial test will only be valid for the current course. If a person who has released a part of the assessment does not pass the subject as a whole, neither in the first nor in the second attempt they will have to repeat the whole subject in the following academic years.

Detailed instructions on the assignments will be explained by the teacher in class and posted on the Moodle platform. 

The above assessment criteria apply to both the first and second attempts and the advanced call

There is a total ban on entering the classroom where the different assessment tests take place with any device that allows communication with the outside and storage of information.

Students with academic dispensation of exemption from attendance: 

- They will follow the same system as on-site students but will have to complete two individual assignments proposed by the lecturer instead of one. In addition, they must contact her for at least two online tutorials during the term.

 Students who do not sit any of the parts proposed in the assessment will appear as NP. If they do take any of them, they will appear as failed until they take or pass the missing part in the next exam session to be able to make the final calculation. It may be the case that a person fails some of the parts, but the sum with the rest gives a pass mark. In this case, the mark will be a fail (the highest fail of those who fail), as it is necessary, as mentioned above, that all the tests are passed by 50% in order to make the calculation.

Academic dishonesty/plagiarism 

Students who commit academic fraud will besubject to the corresponding sanctions pursuant to the University of A Coruña's disciplinary regulations for students (art. 11, section 4. b). "The student will be graded with a "fail" (numerical grade 0) for the corresponding academic year, regardless of whether the offence is committed in the first or second attempt. In this sense, the grade for the first session may be modified, if necessary." Diversity 

ATTENTION TO DIVERSITY: 

Students may request measures aimed at supporting diversity (physical, visual, auditory, cognitive, learning or mental health-related). They should contact the services available at the UDC Diversity Attention Unit(https://www.udc.es/cufie/ADI/apoioalumnado/) or, failing that, the tutor with responsibility for diversity at the Faculty of Tourism, within the time period stipulated for each teaching session.

Other comments

Class attendance is an obligation for students. 

Attendance at field trips is essential, as they involve the preparation of tests and assignments.

Gender perspective 

In accordance with the various regulations governing university teaching, a gender perspective must be included in this subject. This includes, among other measures, the use of non-sexist language, bibliographies that are inclusive from a gender perspective, and encouraging participation byall students in class, regardless of their gender. Particular attention will be paid to identifying and addressing sexist prejudices and attitudes. We will work actively to modify  this environment and promote values of respect and equality. Any cases of gender discrimination detected will be addressed and appropriate actions taken.
