Methodologies Description
Guest lecture / keynote speech Transmission of information and key knowledge of each one of the topics. The participation of students is encouraged at certain times. As part of the methodology, a critical approach to the discipline will lead students to reflect and discover the relationships between different concepts, form a critical mentality to face the problems and the existence of a method, facilitating the learning process in the student .

To fight against the possible passivity of the student, in small moments small questions, that reflect on the student, are presented, complementing those aspects with bibliographical references that allow him to enrich the knowledge acquired. This exchange with the student, as part of the master class, allows us to control the degree of assimilation of knowledge on the part of him.

The magisterial lessons include, as much knowledge extracted from the references of the course, as those resulting from our own professional experiences, fostering the capacity of the critical analysis. At all times it is sought that a certain part of the content does not require the student to memorize them. This methodology will attempt to achieve a high degree of motivation in the student.
Document analysis Reading and critical examination of the main ethical documents of computer science. They serve as a general introduction to the topics. They provide a historical and systematic explanation of its meaning. They are of great importance in the context of the other methodologies used in the subject.
Laboratory practice The laboratory practices allow to maximize the feedback, reinforcement and assimilation of the objectives. Practical developments begin with a basic practice and their difficulty increases gradually. At all times, the student presents the set of ideas and techniques that allow the practical development of the knowledge transmitted in master classes. In the practices several sections are proposed that expose a battery of difficulties treated during the study of the subject. The interrelation between the different sections will be sought, providing a context of full exercise, in order to achieve the student's vision as a whole, revealing the links between the questions that may seem very distant. In all practical classes, virtual machines are used on computers as a basic tool for solving exercises. The student can select and install the tools that he deems most appropriate in each case. In this way, you will be required, from the beginning, to face the decision making, analyzing the advantages and disadvantages in each and every one of the cases. At this initial point, personalized advice will be essential, allowing a realistic analysis of the decisions made, facilitating the feedback of new parameters not considered a priori.
Multiple-choice questions This test will be oriented to determine if the student has assimilated the different objectives of the subject.
Case study The ethical and legal analysis of information technology has specific characteristics. With the case study, it is intended to examine the structure and content of the problems present in the cases, both individually and in groups. It is a form of content learning and also methodological, in which the student learns to analyze, deliberate and reach reasonable and reasonable conclusions with ethical and legal arguments. It is very useful for exercising the abilities and argumentative abilities.
