Description |
Introductory activities |
Explanation of the objectives, content and assessment process. |
Lecture |
Explanation of theoretical concepts using slides and blackboard. The teacher will ask questions to the students to develop their own solutions to the issues raised. |
Problem solving, exercises in the classroom |
During the course, the teacher will present exercises related to the theoretical context presented in lectures. |
Laboratory practicals |
Application of theoretical knowledge to specific situations, using computers, simulators and other practical elements of the laboratories. |
Personal attention |
Teachers will be available during class and office hours, to meet students and answer any questions that were raised during the development of the subject. |
Description |
Students can attend in person to the office of professor in office hours to ask him any questions related to the theoretical explanation and practical implementation issues or developments and practical difficulties in the learning process. Due to the health emergency, this attention can be carried out through online meetings, previously appointed by e-mail, or with other online tools. |

Other comments and second exam session |
The exams will be held in person. In case of lockdown or mobility restrictions caused by the Covid-19 health emergency, the assessment activities, including exams, would be done online on the scheduled dates. Updated information can be found on Moodle (virtual teaching space). The assessment elements of the course are 4: 1st part exam, 1st part laboratories/practice, 2nd part exam, 2nd part laboratories/practice. Students must obtain a minimum score in each of the 4 elements of assessment in order to pass the course. If any element of assessment does not reach the minimum, the final mark of the course shall not exceed 4.5. The minimum score is the same in the 1st and in the 2nd examination period. The evaluation will be continuously during 1st examination period. In the 2nd period the assessment will consist of two exams (1st part, 2nd part) and a second deadline to deliver the Laboratories/Practice of 1st and 2nd part. Students must examine the elements of evaluation that have not obtained the minimum score in 1st call. If submitted in 2nd period, the note will be that of the 2nd period (whether it would be higher or lower than 1st call). The grades from the previous course that exceed the minimum for making average are kept. In conducting written tests, there are not allowed to use any electronic devices (calculators, computers, tablets, phones, watches, etc.). If we detect any copy in any activity evaluation, the global grade of this examination period will be 0, and the student should take again all the assessment elements in the next examination period (we will not keep any of the previous grades). |
