5.1. Methodological overview
The learning process designed for this subject is based on the following aspects:
Being Social Protection Law a “living law” in in a practical sense, the methodology followed in this course must combine onsite theory sessions, where the course syllabus is explained, with problem-solving sessions, where pupils will have to apply the knowledge they have learned solving cases. In this way, the student shall be able to put into practice the knowledge transmitted by the lecturer staff, which undoubtedly settles theoretical contents and promotes their connection with practice. In any case, the lecturer´s role as a tutor or coach is essential, as he or she must guide student´s learning process and problem solving.
5.2. Learning tasks
The schedule of the subject includes the following activities:
Onsite theory sessions.
The main contents of the course syllabus shall be explained by a lecture delivered by the teaching staff, but students must complete that information through personal study. Thus, before attending the lecture, the pupil, who knows which lesson is going to be presented, should read the reference book recommended by the lecturer; in addition, a preliminary analysis of legislative acts and, where relevant, case law connected with the theme is also required. All this autonomous work enables progress with the explanation of the syllabus and, which is more important, promotes student´s participation in class discussions and solving minor problems. Lecturer staff may use new information technologies, to ensure a better transfer of knowledge, and shall be available for face to face tutorials with students to solve their queries.
Problem-solving sessions.
During these sessions, the teaching staff will try to settle syllabus contents, remarking practical dimension of the subject and using a solving problem methodology, where possible, based on case law. The lecturer shall provide the problems to the students well in advice to be solved individually or in groups, using scientific doctrine, case law and legislative acts. All this work will be done by the students before the session. According with the schedule, the pupils shall expose solutions in the classroom. The lecturer staff will guide the debate, making questions and promoting student´s feedback, and finally it will explain the most correct solutions, where possible, making case law known.
Complementary activities.
If he deems it appropriate, the lecturer staff may demand presentations about the course syllabus from the students, which will be exposed during theory sessions, or may call for papers about some specific topics, to go deeper into some specific issues. Similarly, workshops on topical subjects within the framework of social protection can be scheduled.
