| Student portfolio | A3 A8 A12 B2 C3 | Students will prepare a portfolio detailing the objectives, procedures, and results of the activities carried out in the laboratory. The answers must be correctly reasoned, assessing the ability to synthesize the acquired knowledge and adhere to what is asked, combining what has been learned throughout the course. The degree of understanding, the capacity for analysis and synthesis, the bibliography consulted, and the clarity of writing will be evaluated. Proper use of scientific language and appropriate use of terms in context are also considered important. The score obtained in the portfolio constitutes 10% of the final grade for the course, and it is not essential to pass this work to pass the course as a whole. | 5 |
| Objective test | A1 C8 | The final in-person test consists of a mixed-mode exam with approximately 40 short-answer and/or multiple-choice questions that students must answer in a maximum time of 120 minutes. As materials, only the use of pencil, blue or black pen, and eraser is allowed. Students will be informed of the time available for the test, as well as the score assigned to each question and the penalty for incorrect answers. The score obtained in the exam accounts for 80% of the final grade for the course. The maximum score is 10 points and the minimum passing grade is 5 points. | 80 |
| Guest lecture / keynote speech | A1 A2 A3 A8 A12 A13 C3 | Students will have access to the following information on their virtual campus: An introduction to the topic. An extensive and organized script of the contents. Specific references to the basic textbook(s). The slides used by the professor in the lectures, as well as a summary of the fundamental concepts of each topic. Complementary bibliography. Links to web pages and internet resources. The script for the laboratory practices. Additional material (videos, images...) that will facilitate the understanding of the course content. |

| Laboratory practice | A1 A2 A3 A12 B2 C3 C8 | The laboratory practices will be carried out in the Psychobiology laboratory of the DICOMOSA group, which is located in the Faculty of Education Sciences of the UDC. For this purpose, it will be essential to organize small groups so that students can work without interfering with the research work of the group. The practices will be used as an opportunity to resolve doubts related to the material explained during the lecture sessions. | 10 |

All students who take the official final exam of the course and have submitted the corresponding portfolio of laboratory practices will be considered PRESENTED in the course records. The final grade in the records of students who do not achieve the minimum grade to pass the course (4.5) in the objective test of the theoretical syllabus, but whose cumulative score is higher than 5, will be 4.9 (FAIL). In the second opportunity, only students who did not take the first exam or did not achieve the minimum grade to pass the course in the objective test should take the exam. The evaluation methodology will be the same as in the first opportunity. During the objective test, in either of the two opportunities, unless otherwise indicated, the use of any device with Internet access is prohibited. If during the test there is evidence of unauthorized use of these devices, the student will be expelled from the classroom, and proceedings will be carried out according to Law 3/2022, of February 24, on university coexistence and the disciplinary regulations for UDC students. Fraudulent completion of tests and/or activities will directly result in a failing grade ("0") in the course for the corresponding call, invalidating any grade obtained in all activities for the next opportunity, if any, within the same academic year. The completion of activities proposed to be done in-person in the classroom that are done from outside the classroom is considered fraudulent, proceeding according to Law 3/2022, of February 24, on university coexistence and the disciplinary regulations for UDC students. In the completion of assignments, plagiarism and the use of non-original material, including that obtained through the internet, without explicit indication of its source, will be considered cause for a failing grade (numerical grade 0) in the activity. All of this without prejudice to the disciplinary responsibilities that may arise after the corresponding procedure. In the case of duly justified exceptional situations, additional measures may be adopted so that the student can pass the course, such as flexibility in the portfolio submission date or modification of the date of the learning outcomes assessment test. In case of discrepancies between the teaching guides in different languages, the Spanish version will prevail. |
