The evaluation of the oral presentation and subsequent defence of the Final Degree Project will be carried out by the designated examining board, representing 30% of the final grade. In the same way, this panel will issue a grade for the dissertation report, which will represent 40% of the final grade. Both grades must be justified.

The remaining 30% corresponds to the grade issued by the director of the Final Degree Project at the time of its submission, for which the director's report model provided by the Academic Secretary's Office must be used. This grade must be reasoned, and will assess both the final quality of the Final Degree Project submitted and the student's ongoing assessment.

The requirements for the registration and defence of the TFG will be determined in any case by the current regulations adopted by the University.

PART-TIME ENROLLMENT: There are no different teaching methodologies or evaluation systems contemplated for part-time students.

ACADEMIC EXEMPTION: Given the nature of the subject, the possibility of an academic exemption that exempts students from attending scheduled face-to-face sessions (seminar, tutorials, or oral presentation and defense) is not contemplated.

SECOND OPPORTUNITY: There are no different teaching methodologies or evaluation systems contemplated for the second opportunity.

REPEAT ENROLLMENT: There are no different teaching methodologies or evaluation systems contemplated for students in second or subsequent enrollments.

PLAGIARISM: In the completion of the subject's assignments, plagiarism and the use of non-original material, including material obtained from the internet without proper indication of its source and, if applicable, permission from its author, will be graded as a failure (0.0) for the activity. This is without prejudice to the disciplinary responsibilities that may arise from the corresponding procedure. The fraudulent completion of tests or evaluation activities, once proven, will directly result in a failing grade for the examination in which it occurred: the student will be awarded a grade of "fail" (numerical grade 0) for the corresponding academic term, regardless of whether the offense takes place during the first or second opportunity. In order to do so, the student's grade will be modified in the first opportunity record, if necessary.

Topic	Sub-topic
The Final Degree Dissertation may adopt one of the following modalities: 1. Bibliographic review: this modality aims to describe in an up-to-date manner the state of knowledge of a specific area of the reality of health research. 2. Research project: the purpose is to provide useful and applicable information for the development of a novel research project. 3. Research study: the aim is to communicate the original results derived from the research process carried out by the student. A pilot study will be accepted as part of this type of dissertation. 4. Real clinical case: this involves the exploration, intervention and monitoring of a real clinical case, where the student can demonstrate the competences acquired throughout his/her training process. 5. Learning and service experience: this is an educational proposal that combines learning and community service processes in a single, well-articulated project in which participants learn by working on real needs in their environment with the aim of improving it. In short, service-learning is a method for combining social commitment with the learning of knowledge, skills, attitudes and values. Learning to be competent by being useful to others (http://www.udc.es/ocv/Aprendizaxe_servizo/). In turn, the topic of the Final Degree Dissertation may be freely chosen by the student, as long as it refers to any of the training contents included in the subjects of the syllabus of the Degree in Physiotherapy, in accordance with the competences set out in ORDER CIN/2135/2008, of 3 July. However, for organisational purposes, the following lines of work are proposed:	1. Neurological physiotherapy. 2. Sports physiotherapy. 3. Diagnosis and physiotherapy intervention in the main dysfunctions of the ankle-foot complex: reliability, validity and efficacy. 4. Biomechanical analysis of movement. Gait rehabilitation in neurological problems. Motor control. Physical exercise and sports injuries. 5. Management of scientific evidence in Physiotherapy. Nutrition in Physiotherapy. 6. Physiotherapy in the elderly. 7. Respiratory physiotherapy in diseases of the respiratory system and other clinical processes. 8. Obstetric and urogynecological physiotherapy. 9. Physiotherapy in disease prevention and health promotion. 10. Physiotherapy in traumatology. 11. Biomechanical analysis of movement. 12. 3D treatment of scoliosis using the FED method. 13. Physiotherapy in dysfunctions of the neuro-musculo-skeletal system. 14. Physiotherapy in pathologies related to lymphedemas and vascular problems. 15. Neurophysiological effects of Manual Therapy. 16. Peripheral nervous system. 17. New\|Emerging therapeutic strategies in the evaluation and treatment of Parkinson's disease. Neurophysiological evaluation of motor system fatigue. 18. Epidemiology, prevention and active management of musculoskeletal pain (MSP). Impact of MSP on health-related quality of life (HRQoL). 19. Temporomandibular joint dysfunction. 20. Morpho-functional analysis of the musculoskeletal system by ultrasound scanning. Physiotherapy in dysfunctions of the neuro-musculoskeletal system. 21. Electrotherapy in Physiotherapy. 22. Aquatic rehabilitation. Neuroscience applied to rehabilitation. 23. Physiotherapeutic intervention in children with neurological pathology.
The subject Final Degree Project has been assigned 6 ECTS credits, equivalent to 150 hours of work for the student. The face-to-face activity is represented by 13 hours distributed as follows: - 2 hours correspond to the initial seminar with the academic responsible of the subject where the different procedures related to the subject are explained (election of the director, regulations, work modalities, delivery of the TFG,...) and any doubts that may arise are clarified. - 10 hours distributed throughout the second four-month period will be devoted to face-to-face meetings with the tutor, in order to properly monitor the final dissertation . - 1 hour corresponds to the oral presentation and defence of the final dissertation before the assessment panel. The remaining 137 hours correspond to non-face-to-face work by the student: selection of the topic, work schedule and preparation of the TFG and preparation of its presentation and defence.

Methodologies	Description
Oral presentation	Intervention inherent to the teaching-learning processes based on verbal presentation through which students and teaching staff interact in an orderly manner, raising questions, making clarifications and presenting topics, work, concepts, facts or principles in a dynamic way. Students will defend their Final Dissertation before a panel composed of 3 members: President, Secretary and Vocal Member. The presentation will have a maximum duration of 10 minutes, after which the student will be at the disposal of the panel to clarify, answer or go into any questions that may be requested.
Introductory activities	Activities that are carried out before starting any teaching-learning process in order to find out the competences, interests and/or motivations that students possess in order to achieve the objectives to be attained, linked to a training programme. The aim is to obtain relevant information that will enable teaching to be articulated in order to promote effective and significant learning, based on the students' prior knowledge. The purpose of this 2-hour seminar is to inform enrolled students of the regulations for the preparation of the TFG, the relevant dates and timing, the application process for the director and the choice of the specific subject, the different preparation methods envisaged, the assessment system and criteria, as well as to answer any possible doubts regarding the subject. This seminar will be given by the lecturer responsible for the academic management of the TFG subject, in this case the Academic Secretary.
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 the monitoring of this learning by the professor-tutor. In turn, the tutored work methodology may include the use, alone or in combination, of other teaching methodologies such as Analysis of documentary sources, learning and service or clinical practice, depending on the work modality selected. Each student will be assigned a director for the preparation of their Final Degree Dissertation. The director will be responsible for advising the student and monitoring their work to ensure that they acquire the skills inherent to it, and that it complies with the requirements specified in the regulations. Once the student has finished their Final Degree Dissertation, the director must issue a favourable report so that they can request their defence before the assessment panel.
