Description |
| Introductory activities |
In the theoretical classes will be exposed the scientific and practical foundations for the comprehension of the bibliography that the students must present in the second part of the following class. In this way, only the first theoretical class will not count on the active participation of the students. |
| Lecture |
From the second class the students will be proposed the following dynamic: 40 min will be occupied by the teacher to teach the basic concepts of the bibliography to be presented by the students. In the second part of the next class: 25 min for the presentation of an article by the students, 15 min for the questions by the audience, 25 min for the presentation of a second article by the students and 15 min for questions by the audience. |
| Problem solving, exercises in the classroom |
The responsible students for the exhibition must present on the website of the subject the possible answers using any of the existing supports on the internet. |
| Laboratory practicals |
Design to develop genetic modifications of microorganisms and evaluate them at the molecular and physiological level. |
| Personal attention |
The students will have a weekly consultation schedule to solve specific doubts of the subject. |

Other comments and second exam session |
|
The second call will consist of an examination of all the contents of the subject. The demonstration of the fraudulent conduct of some evaluative activity of a subject in both material and virtual or electronic support leads to the student the failing grade of this evaluation activity. Regardless of this, in view of the seriousness of the facts, the centre may propose the initiation of a disciplinary file, which will be initiated by resolution of the rector. |
