Description |
ICT practicals |
Metodoloxía que permite ao alumnado aprender de forma efectiva, a través de actividades de carácter práctico (demostracións, simulacións, etc.) a teoría dun ámbito de coñecemento, mediante a utilización das tecnoloxías da información e as comunicacións. As TIC supoñen un excelente soporte e canal para o tratamento da información e aplicación práctica de coñecementos, facilitando a aprendizaxe e o desenvolvemento de habilidades por parte do alumnado. |
Guest lecture / keynote speech |
Oral presentation complemented by the use of audiovisual media and the introduction of some questions addressed to the students, with the purpose of transmitting knowledge and facilitating learning. |
Problem solving |
Technique by which a specific problematic situation has to be resolved, based on the knowledge that has been worked on, which may have more than one possible solution. |
Supervised projects |
Methodology designed to promote autonomous learning of students, under the tutelage of the teacher and in various scenarios (academic and professional). It refers primarily to learning "how to do things". It constitutes an option based on the assumption by students of responsibility for their own learning.
This teaching system is based on two basic elements: the independent learning of the students and the monitoring of that learning by the teacher-tutor. |
Field trip |
Activities developed in a context outside the university academic environment (companies, institutions, organizations, etc.) related to the field of study of the subject. These activities focus on capacity building related to direct and systematic observation, information gathering or product development, etc. They may consist of attending conferences and congresses in the field. |
Mixed objective/subjective test |
Written test used for the evaluation of learning, whose distinctive feature is the possibility of determining if the answers given are correct or not. It constitutes a measurement instrument, rigorously elaborated, that allows to evaluate knowledge, abilities, skills, performance, aptitudes, attitudes, intelligence, etc. It is applicable to both diagnostic, formative and summative assessment. |

Assessment comments |
In case of impossibility to carry out the Field Trip, the qualification of this part (5%) will go to the Supervised Projects, in which case the percentage of the Supervised Projects will be 40%. Students with recognition of part-time dedication and academic exemption from attendance will be evaluated exclusively with the mixed test, which represents 100% of their grade. The evaluation criteria for the second opportunity are the same as those for the first opportunity. In this context, the approved parts will be saved for the second opportunity. The evaluation criteria for the extraordinary call are the same as those for the first opportunity. In order to take the average, it is necessary for the students to take a grade equal to or greater than 4 points in the mixed test and deliver and present the supervised work on the indicated date. Note: In carrying out work, plagiarism and the use of non-original material, including that obtained through the Internet, without express indication of its origin and, if applicable, without the permission of its author, may be considered cause of qualification of suspense in the activity. All of this without prejudice to the disciplinary responsibilities that may arise after the corresponding procedure.

Other comments |
(A) To help achieve an immediate sustainable environment and comply with the Green Campus Ferrol action plan:
1. The delivery of documentary work carried out in this subject: 1.1. It will be requested in digital format and/or computer support. 1.2. It will be done through Moodle, in digital format without the need to print them. 2. The importance of ethical principles related to the values of sustainability in personal and professional behavior must be taken into account.
(B) In relation to the gender perspective:
1. As stated in the different university teaching regulations, the gender perspective must be incorporated in this matter (non-sexist language will be used, a bibliography of authors of both sexes will be used, student participation in class will be encouraged... ). 2. Work will be done to identify and modify prejudices and sexist attitudes and influence the environment to modify them and promote values of respect and equality. 3. Situations of discrimination based on gender must be detected and actions and measures to correct them will be proposed. |
