Methodologies
Methodologies Description
Guest lecture / keynote speech 1. Classroom lectures about the theoretical and practical contents of the subject to guide the student in its preparation.

2. The time spent in each one of the subject chapters will be proportional to the difficulty level and to the length of those chapters. Thus, some chapters will take more time than others. The teacher is responsible of deciding how many time spend in each one of the subject chapters.

3. For preparing those chapters with thw lowest level of difficulty, the student should study the bibliography, although in the lectures the student will be orientated about:
a) which are the bibliographic sources to study
b) which are the most relevant and interesting issues to reach the learning goals set for the subject.

4. Discussion, together with all the workgroups, of the homework of each one of the workgroups. The student can participate: a) by his or her own, after being given the floor; b) after being required by the teacher to participate.
Problem solving 1. Development, exposition and resolution of practical exercises to be made by the student, being part of a workgroup, throghout the course.

2. Exercises and readings to be made by the student by his or herself. In subsequent classes:
a) a review of the exercises will be made. In this review, the student can participate as stated in the point 3.
b) a question time about the readings will be opened.

3. The student can participate: a) on his or her own, after being given the floor; b) after being required by the teacher to participate.
Mixed objective/subjective test Mixed test: theoretical-practical exam of all the contents of the subject, which is held first and second time
Seminar Small group discussion of the subject contents. Specifically, the discussion of the exercises and readings described in the previous "Problem solving" statement.
The student can participate: a) on his or her own, after being given the floor; b) after being required by the teacher to participate.

Seminar
Problem solving
Description
1. In the guest lectures and keynote speechs the student can participate, after being given the floor, to ask, clarify or explain his or her point of view about the issues being dealed with in the moment of his participation.

2. In the problem solving classes the student can participate as described in the Methodologies section.

3. In the tutorials, the student can ask about the doubts arisen in the preparation of the subject. Although it is not compulsory, the student can ask about the doubts and the data and time -inside the tutorials schedule- in which he or she wants to be received, thus improving the tutorials effectiveness and management.

4. If the questions dealed with in the tutorials are of a general interest, from the point of view of the teacher, they could be published in Moodle, together with their answers, to allow other students a better preparation of the subject. The name of the person who made the question will never be published.

Methodologies Competencies Description Qualification
Mixed objective/subjective test A1 A4 A6 A8 A11 B2 B3 B4 B6 B7 B8 C1 C4 C8 Both for the first opportunity and for the second opportunity: theoretical-practical exam of all the contents of the subject, 40
Problem solving A8 A9 A10 A11 B1 B7 B8 B9 B10 C3 C5 For both the First and Second Opportunities: 60% continuous evaluation.

1. Preparation of one or more practical cases proposed by the teacher, in which one or more of the aspects related to the content of the subject will be developed. For the resolution of these cases, the use of information and communication technologies (ICT) may be necessary, and if required, deliverables will be in electronic format.

2. The works will be developed in groups of 4 to 6 students. Exceptionally and with prior approval by the Teacher of the subject or the Tutor of the group, another number of students per group will be allowed.

3. An essential part of the evaluation is the discussion of its development with the Professor of the subject or the Tutor of the development group assigned to it.

4. Any doubts about this evaluative section must be resolved by supporting the solution on the idea of "continuous evaluation".

Assessment comments

A) EVALUATION REGULATIONS:

Assessment conditions: It is forbidden to access the exam room with any device that allows communication with the outside and / or storage of information.

Student identification: The student must prove her personality in accordance with current regulations.

B) TYPES OF RATING:

Qualification of not presented: Corresponds to the student, when he only participates in evaluation activities that have a weighting of less than 20% on the final qualification, regardless of the qualification achieved.

Students with recognition of part-time dedication and academic waiver of attendance exemption: Except for the dates approved in the Faculty Board for the final objective test, for the remaining tests a specific calendar of dates compatible with their dedication. For this reason, the student must contact the teacher of the subject in the first ten days of the semester in which the subject is taught, in order to set the aforementioned calendar. The tests will have the same format as for full-time students.

C) EVALUATION OPPORTUNITIES:

First opportunity: the evaluation criteria previously indicated in this section will be applied.

Second chance: Evaluation criteria are the same for all evaluation opportunities

Advance call: The conditions of evaluation of the advanced opportunity (art. 19 of the Norms of Assessment, Review and Claims of Qualifications two Studies of Degree and University Graduate) will be specific for this opportunity. This will be evaluated through a mixed test that will represent 100% of the final grade.

D) OTHER EVALUATION REMARKS:

The scoring criteria for each of the tests will be announced at the time of the test and will be provided with the statement of the same.

Tests not performed score as zero. The grade of "Not Presented" will be awarded to the student who participates in less than 20% of the scoring tests for the final grade. Those made in fraud suppose the qualification of zero points in the final evaluation. With regard to the commission of fraud and disciplinary responsibilities, the provisions of article 14 of the UDC's "Norms for evaluation, review and claim of qualifications for bachelor's and master's degrees" of the UDC apply.

The grade of "not presented" is awarded to students whose participation in evaluation activities has a weighting of less than 20% on the final grade, regardless of the grade achieved.
