Methodologies | Description |
Guest lecture / keynote speech | Oral lectures with slides and questions from the students. The goal of these presentations is to provide information and to help in the adquisition of knowledge. There will be oral lectures related to the contents 1, 2, 3 and 4. I will be the besis for the rest of activities. |
Laboratory practice | Activity to increase the knowledge of the concepts explained in the oral lectures, by performing practical sessions in computers. The students will understand the practical concepts of high performance computing. Particularly, these sessions will focus on content 5, and it will be necessary for the supervised project and the oral test. |
Supervised projects | The student will develop an individual work where he must use a parallel bioinformatic tool. This project will be used to evaluate whether the student learnt the concepts explained during the laboratory prcatices and he is able to use the new knowledge on different scenarios. |
Oral presentation | Activity where students must expose to the teacher and the colleagues the results of their projects. There will enough time so that the other students can ask questions about the work (they must be active). |
Objective test | Activity to evaluate the knowledge acquired by the students during the oral lectures. It consists of a written test with several questions. |
