| Introductory activities | Introduction and general planning: sources of information, assessment calendar, standards required, ... Theory and practice of measurement uncertainty and its propagation in calculated variables. |
| Laboratory practicals | We will study the results of practical cases in chemical engineering in which the transport of mass, energy and/or momentum constitutes the basic phenomenon, the understanding of which guarantees the control of the process. Laboratory practices are carried out in groups. |
| Personal attention | During consultation hours |
| Personalized attention |
| Description |
|
When you come to the laboratory or by e-mail, you can ask Josep Lluís Gibert (joseluis.gibert@urv.cat) for the day, time and place for the advice necessary to make good use of the subject or to resolve doubts about the job development You can also take advantage of the assistance in the laboratory for personalized attention, as long as it does not impact on the normal development of the practice session. |

|
The students send the group reports to moodle within a week after the realization of each practice and the teachers evaluate their content with objective criteria and in such a way that the students receive constant feedback throughout the course. In addition, aspects such as compliance with safety rules and behavior in the laboratory are evaluated. |

Tests to accredit sufficient technical and methodological knowledge before doing each practice in the laboratory | 10% | ||||||||||||||||
| Others | Laboratory notebook. All work done in the laboratory should be recorded in an individual notebook. This notebook will not be graded, but it can be used to take the final exam, so the more complete this notebook is, the easier the final exam will be. |

The multiple-choice objective tests are necessary to be able to attend the laboratory with minimal knowledge about the practice to be done. If a practice test is not taken, the grade for that test will be zero and there will be a 50% penalty on the practice grade. Laboratory practicals are mandatory. Attendance and excused absences will be monitored according to ETSEQ regulations. Students who do not attend a practice must contact the responsible teacher to be able to recover the practice. The extenden-answer test (final exam) is mandatory. If it is not done, the subject's grade is "NOT PRESENTED", regardless of the results of the other sections of the subject. The laboratory notebook is mandatory. It does not add points to the final grade, but a non-existent or poorly made notebook will result in a penalty of up to 10% of the overall grade. The final score is the weighted average of the grades according to their weight. There is no minimum score required in any of the sections, but everything must have been done (tests, practices and final exam). For example, without taking the final test you cannot pass the subject. There is no second call. If the student fails, he will have to repeat all the practices the following year. |

All practical scripts have a bibliography section, where bibliographic resources are detailed (they are all on the Internet and are free to access), as well as YouTube videos that can be very clarifying on specific topics of the subject. When you use AI resources you need to indicate it, as if it were a bibliography and, above all, check the information given by the AI system... you think that these systems, if they don't know something, they invent it... therefore, you should not rely on it uncritically. |

| Other comments | |
| 1. Choose the work group efficiently. There are always problems because not everyone in the group works well. 2. Submit the work within the deadline and do not wait until the last minute to do it. 3. Come to the laboratory with practice prepared... it's the only way not to leave things to do, to measure... 4. Do a job well done and present it even better. It is what is expected of an engineer. 5. Be critical of the results and interpret them judiciously. |
