Description |
Collaborative learning |
A set of teaching-learning procedures guided in person and/or supported by information and communication technologies, based on organizing the class into small groups where students work together to solve tasks assigned by the teacher to optimize their own learning and that of other group members. It allows the acquisition of the specific competencies referenced in this subject. |
Directed discussion |
A group dynamics technique in which the members of a group discuss a topic freely, informally and spontaneously, although they may be coordinated by a moderator. |
Workbook |
They are a set of texts and written documentation that have been collected and edited as a source for further study of the contents worked on. |
Laboratory practice |
Methodology that enables students to learn effectively through hands-on activities such as demonstrations, exercises, experiments and investigations. |
Mixed objective/subjective test |
Test that integrates essay-type test questions and objective-type test questions. In terms of essay questions, it comprises open-ended essay questions. In addition, as objective questions, it may combine multiple-choice, ordering, short answer, discrimination, completion and/or association questions. |
Guest lecture / keynote speech |
Oral exposition complemented by the use of audiovisual media and the introduction of some questions addressed to the students, with the aim of transmitting knowledge and facilitating learning.
The master class is also known as "lecture", "expository method" or "master class". The latter is usually reserved for a special type of lecture given by a teacher on special occasions, with a content that involves an original elaboration and is based on the almost exclusive use of the spoken word as a means of conveying information to the audience. |
Supervised projects |
Methodology designed to promote autonomous learning by students, under the guidance of the teacher and in a variety of scenarios (academic and professional). It is primarily concerned with learning "how to do things". It is an option based on students taking responsibility for their own learning.
This teaching system is based on two basic elements: independent learning by students and monitoring of this learning by the teacher-tutor. |
Events academic / information |
This scientific event refers to the Occupational Therapy Conference 2024: 25 years of Occupational Therapy history at the Universidade da Coruña (University of A Coruña). |
Case study |
Methodology where the subject is faced with the description of a specific situation that poses a problem to be understood, assessed and resolved by a group of people, through a process of discussion. The student is faced with a specific problem (case), which describes a real situation of professional life, and must be able to analyse a series of facts, referring to a particular field of knowledge or action, in order to reach a reasoned decision. |

|
Description |
Personalised attention will be given by means of individualised tutorials or in small groups, depending on the needs of the students and the methodologies used. These tutorials will preferably be virtual, for which the Teams platform will be used. The tutorials will be held at the student's request or at the request of the subject's teaching staff. The timetable will be in the timetable of the subject or in a timetable agreed between the students and the teaching staff; as long as it does not interfere with the rest of the teaching activities of other subjects.

Attitude and participation will be assessed: collaborative attitude (involvement with the group in tasks and the general development of the laboratory); participation (empathetic, proactive, analytical, and constructive interaction); respect (for group participants, teachers, and laboratory rules); responsibility (with oneself and/or with the group, both in the preparation of work done during the laboratory and in the teaching-learning process).
Attendance is mandatory, and only one justified absence is allowed. Attendance at the methodology of scientific events will be valued in this methodology. |

In addition to the knowledge acquired, the student's writing ability will be assessed (negatively evaluating grammatical and spelling errors, as well as the integration of concepts). |

Case study |
A2 A7 A9 A20 B1 B23 B29 C1 |
The report of the occupational therapy process carried out throughout the course will be assessed, articulating the theory and technique covered in the course. The use of updated literature will be important, as well as its proper justification in the proposed case study. |

Assessment comments |
The grading system will be expressed using numerical grades in accordance with the provisions of Article 5 of Royal Decree 1125/2003 of September 5 (BOE September 18), which establishes the European credit system and the grading system for official university degrees valid throughout the national territory. Grading system: 0-4.9 = Fail; 5-6.9 = Pass; 7-8.9 = Good; 9-10 = Excellent; 9-10 = Honors (at discretion). A student will be considered as "not presented" (NP) if, being enrolled, they do not attend the evaluation activities established for the academic year. In the absence of specific regulations, a student will be considered "not presented" when: a) they do not complete continuous assessment according to the course guide, or b) they do not attend the official evaluation period exam. The consideration of NP does not consume an attempt. Punctuality and mandatory attendance to laboratory practices will be evaluated, with a maximum of one justified absence allowed (consult the university's current regulations for justifiable situations). To pass the course, the student must actively participate, submit all assignments, and pass all evaluation methodologies. Students must attend scientific events such as the Occupational Therapy Conference Cycle 2024: 25 Years of Occupational Therapy History at the University of La Coruña. A minimum grade of 1.75 (out of 3.5) is required in the mixed test and laboratory practices, and 1.5 (out of 3) in the case study. It is necessary to pass all methodologies to pass the course. Otherwise, the grade will be that of the mixed test. The grades from other methodologies will be considered in the second opportunity (July) if they are passed and the mixed test is passed. According to the study dedication regulations for undergraduate students at the University of La Coruña (approved by the Governing Council on 22/05/2012), part-time students have the right to flexible attendance and to request special academic exemption (Art. 4, section 5) if it does not negatively affect their assessment. The Academic Committees of the UDC determine the scope of this exemption. The granting of flexibility will depend on the evaluation by the academic committee of the Occupational Therapy Degree, considering the methodologies and evaluation criteria of the subjects. Fraud in exams or assessment activities will directly result in a fail grade for the corresponding term, both in the first and second opportunities, with a numerical grade of 0. The grade in the first opportunity record will be modified if necessary. All aspects related to "academic exemption", "study dedication", "permanence", and "academic fraud" will be governed according to the current academic regulations at the UDC.
