Methodologies
Methodologies Description
Guest lecture / keynote speech O profesor guía aos alumnos aclarando os principais conceptos.
Problem solving Resolvense problemas ou exercicios propostos na aula ou da bibliografía. Pretendese que cada alumno realice un traballo previo a sesión na clase de forma individual.
Laboratory practice Son sesions obrigatorias para todos os alumnos. Consistirán no deseño e simulación de circuitos dixitais. Requiren preparación previa antes da sesión no laboratorio, con un análise e deseño xustificado da solución adoptada en cada caso. O profesor revisará o traballo previo realizado así como o desenvolvemento na sesión de prácticas.
Practical test: Consiste no deseño e simulación en VHDL de circuitos dixitais.
Objective test A proba consistirá en cuestions teórico-prácticas e problemas sobre o contido do curso.

Practical test: A29 A30 Consiste no deseño e simulación de circuitos dixitais en VHDL utilizando ol software do Laboratorio. 60
Objective test B2 There will be 3 partial proofs to realize individually by each student.
The first will realize once explained the 3 first subjects. It will suppose a 15% of the final grade.
The second proof will realize once explained the subjects 4 and 5. It will suppose a 15% of the final grade.
The third proof will realize coinciding with the final examination of the 1ª opportunity. This proof will suppose a 20% of the final grade. 		40
 
Assessment comments

The
scores for the evaluable tasks are only valid for the academic year in which
they are made.

Objective
tests may include short-answer questions and / or test, problem solving on paper
or circuit design with the ISE software.

Final grade

The
final grade is usually  calculated as:

 Final
grade = 0.4  x objective test 1 grade + 0.5 x objective
test 2 grade + 0,1 x objective test 3 grade 

Those
students who do not have qualification in some of the objective test, or to
resort very low scores can choose to make the 3rd objective test with a weight
of 100% (the test will be different in this case). So
in this case the final grade will be the the qualification of this test.

Second opportunity

The
second time, an objective test that can consist of theoretical and practical
questions, written exercises, issues and circuit
design with the ISE software will be performed.
