Methodologies
|
Description |
Introductory activities |
On the first day of class, the subject will be presented,as well as its organization, the methodology to be followed, the most appropriate bibliography, and the evaluation methodology. It will be explained to the students how to contact the teacher outside of class hours. |
Problem solving, exercises in the classroom |
Theoretical questions and practical problems related to fraud detection, analytical parameters of acidity, deacidifications, acidifications, and precipitations will be solved in the classroom. |
Lecture |
The contents of the subject will be explained in the classroom and the articles that the students will be able to access will be briefly discussed. In this sense, the student will access, through Moodle, documents, publications, and works related to current lines of research in the field of oenological chemistry and to the subject matter. Access to this information is voluntary and will be provided so that the student can expand on those aspects of the subject that may be of interest to them. |
Debates |
Discussion in the classroom on specific topics related to the contents of the subject being taught. |
Personal attention |
The student canask questions to the teacher about any aspect related to the subject at times agreed in advance. |

Other comments and second exam session |
First call: The tests of short questions correspond to four controls that will be carried out throughout the course. The continuous evaluation will be applied by default. If a student, due to work issues or an Erasmus stay, wishes to waive the continuous evaluation, he will have to formally request it in writing, filling in a form available on the Moodle platform, before the first control is carried out. In these cases the four controls, the debates and the exercises will be replaced by a single exam that constitutes 100% of the final grade
Second call: the four controls, the debates and the exercises will be replaced by a single exam, that will constitute 100% of the final grade.
Note: During the evaluation tests, mobile phones, tablets and other electronic devices that are not expressly authorized for the test must be turned off and out of sight.
NOTE: The demonstrably fraudulent performance of any assessment activity of any subject, both in physical and virtual and electronic support, will result in the student receiving a failing grade in said assessment activity. Regardless of this, given the seriousness of the facts, the center can propose the initiation of disciplinary proceedings, which will be processed by resolution of the rector. |
