Methodologies | Description |
Guest lecture / keynote speech | In the lecture sessions, the fundamental contents of each topic will be taught by the teaching staff through theoretical explanations and practical examples. To make the most of these sessions, students will have access to suitable teaching materials in advance on the Virtual Campus. Student participation will be encouraged. |
Seminar | As a complement to lectures, seminars will be dedicated to the analysis and resolution of problems or practical cases related to nanotechnology in food industry. Seminars will be held in small groups, thus promoting student participation and collaborative work. Additionally, a pre-laboratory or explanatory session on laboratory practices may be conducted. |
Mixed objective/subjective test | Written test to assess the degree of acquisition of knowledge and skills by students. It may combine different types of questions such as multiple choice, matching, explanation, problem-solving or calculation. |
Laboratory practice | In the laboratory practice sessions, a series of activities will be conducted for the students (in small groups) learn how to handle various techniques used in food nanotechnology. An initial session will be given to introduce students to the contents and dynamics of the practical exercises. Students will have to prepare a report detailing the work done, including a critical and detailed analysis. |
