| Methodologies |
| Methodologies | Description |
| Guest lecture / keynote speech | The course will be developed during the regular classes where the professor will explain the main concepts and results of the subject. |
| Problem solving | This classes are organiized in such a way that we practice how to solve the proposed problems. |
| Objective test | Three exams will be carried out during the course. The first one will be a partial exam where only some of the chapters will be considered. A final exam will be done at the end of the semester. Furthermore a computer exam will be carried out. |
| Workshop | Problems are solved assisted by the computer programm Maxima. |

| Assessment | |||
| Methodologies | Competencies | Description | Qualification |
| Objective test | A1 A5 B1 B2 B3 B5 B7 C1 C4 C5 | These consist on written exams to assess the knowledge of the course by the students. The exames will be divided into 2 parts and the final qualification will be the addition of the qualification obtained in each of them. 1) The first one will be done during the teaching period by means of a partial exam. It will likely involve contents of chapters 1, 2, 3 and 4. Students passing this exam, will not need to repeat the corresponding questions in the final exams. Otherwise, this part will be recoverable in the final exams. 2) The final exam will be carried out in the period of final exams. It will be include contents of the second part of the subject and a second chance to pass the first part. In case of passing any of these two parts, either in the partial or in the final exam of january, the qualification is retained for the present course until the exam of the second oportunity. |
