  Description
Introductory activities Course presentation
Reading written documents and graphs Students read and work on documents published in a variety of formats. The documents can be selected or produced by the lecturers so that students can develop the more theoretical competencies and acquire the knowledge they need for practical activities.
Assignments Students do exercises based on the material and bibliography provided by the lecturers. These assignments have a scope that extends beyond that of the problem solving exercises.
videoconferencing Presentation of subject content, presentation of activities, problem solving and queries using videoconferencing. This activity requires students and lecturers to be present at the same time and the amount of interaction depends on the objectives. It may be recorded so that it can be made available to students in the virtual classroom.
Personal attention Every lecturer has time set aside to attend students and respond to their queries. Students can be seen face to face or use the subject’s online forum and/or videoconference.

Personalized attention
Description

The student will contact the teacher via institutional mail.
