General description Nesta materia consolidarase a elaboración da metodoloxía proxectual individual de cada alumno, permitíndolle comprobar como o achegamento ao proxecto baixo unha perspectiva disciplinar permite abordar programas moi diversos en canto a escala e complexidade. Neste cuatrimestre reflexionarase sobre o papel do edificio con respecto á súa contorna, de tal xeito que se pondere a influencia do mesmo en condicións que van desde a intervención nun conxunto urbano consolidado e con interese patrimonial a un área en desenvolvemento na periferia urbana e sen elementos construídos que a caractericen.

Así mesmo, traballarase sobre o concepto do uso colectivo, os espazos comúns e de relación e as condicións de privacidade, as circulacións, os espazos de acceso e reunión, os aspectos de representatividade e imaxe, o carácter dos espazos exteriores, pavimentos, axardinamento, patios, iluminación das estancias, etc.

Methodologies
Methodologies Description
Introductory activities In the first classes of this course, different tests will be posed to students in order to know their level of architectural expression. These tests will be done in the classroom.
Document analysis Before starting the development work material in the Workshop, will proceed to the analysis of documentary sources related to the theme by using audiovisual documents, bibliographical, documentary reports, graphic panels, photographs, models, articles, informational texts , applicable regulations, etc.. The so formed groups (teacher - student) analyze the available documentation and complete it, producing a synthesis of various documentary sources. This analysis is complemented with interventions and architecture professionals from other fields, to be invited to conduct talks and discussions with development of specific issues and personal experiences.
Collaborative learning Students are divided into small working groups, in which they work together to solve the tasks assigned by the teacher. The group is organized to obtain and elaborate the information and share it (analysis of the plot, finding examples of regulations, general construction site layout, data or in situ measurements, infographic treatment documentation obtained, etc.. ). This work is guided by the teacher. Its objective is to optimize both individual and group learning.
Directed discussion Both the group and the individual works are exposed in public, to encourage group members to intervene in their own and others' creative process in a free, informal and spontaneous context.
Diagramming The data obtained in the analysis, as well as the intentions of the project, will be expressed in simplified graphic form in the early stages of each job. These are the phases of background information and draft.
Workshop Projects are developed by combining different methodologies and tests: attending exhibitions and lectures, by discussion of specific problems of the program, etc. The student works mainly on practical tasks in each exercise, always under the support and supervision of teachers.
Guest lecture / keynote speech Expository teaching is organized around subject content. Periodically, conferences and / or exhibitions related to the topic at hand in each year will be held, in which the rapporteur will present orally and / or graphical information to students.
Supervised projects It is intended to promote the autonomous learning of students, under the guidance of the teacher. It refers to the learning of "how to do things"; it is the student who assumes responsibility for his training.
Objective test There will be an objective test on the contents presented in the expository sessions, which configure the theoretical and normative framework of the subject.
Events academic / information - Attendance at cultural events: Activities carried out by students that involve attendance and/or participation in scientific and/or informative events (congresses, conferences, symposiums, courses, seminars, conferences, exhibitions, etc.), indicated by the teaching staff as part of the teaching content, with the aim of deepening the knowledge of study topics related to the subject.
- Participation in exhibitions and/or publications: Preparation of summary materials of the work carried out on the subject for publication and/or public exhibition.
Student portfolio As a result of their work at the end of the semester, each student will have developed its own portfolio, accessible through the Moodle teaching platform. This document, elaborated through the group sessions and the workshop, will serve as a basis for personnel qualification and student curriculum vitae.

Description
Students will receive personalized attention by their group's teacher, concerning the work developed in the subject and in the Workshop. In the Workshop students will also be able to comment and get critical revision by the teachers of other subjects and groups, to compare opinions and criteria and confront them with their own.

The student's portfolio will be discussed through periodical and personalized reviews, to observe its evolution and verify its authorship.

Specific conditions related to mobility for outgoing and incoming students:
- This subject foresees exclusively on-going assessment for all students, even for those in mobility programs, under similar requirements of evaluation and attendance. Specific attention may be provided to incoming students for linguistic reasons or obvious differences between the schools of origin and destination.

2. Not complying the minimum attendance requirements. 

3. Not attending the final test exam. 

NOTE: TO BE ABLE TO PASS THE SUBJECT, THE FOLLOWING MINIMUM GRADES WILL BE REQUIRED: 3 POINTS IN THE OBJECTIVE TEST AND 4 POINTS IN EACH ONE OF THE WORKS TO BE EVALUATED.

In accordance with the contents of the Architectural Bachelor's Degree memory, a Workshop Evaluation Board may be convened to analyze the overall results of the Workshop and decide, where appropriate, on specific cases of students’ evaluation.

In accordance with the memory of the Degree in Architecture, students who do not overcome this subject within the two opportunities of each call, must attend the Workshop the following year. The tests of the different opportunities will allow students to complete and/or totally or partially modify the works presented in the Workshop, in
order to pass the subject.

PART TIME. Dedication measures for part-time students: not considered, as in this subject the workshop is the fundamental methodology.

Academic Exemption from Attendance Waiver. It is not considered, as in this subject the workshop is the fundamental methodology.

PLAGIARISM. The detection of plagiarism, as well as the fraudulent performance of tests or evaluation activities, once verified, will directly imply the qualification of FAIL "0" in the subject in the corresponding call, thus invalidating any qualification obtained in all the evaluation activities of facing the extraordinary call.
