5.1. Methodological overview
In the learning process, different teaching methods will be used: it will make use of expository teaching techniques for the lectures and will be used also more participatory techniques by the student training. These allow the involvement of students in their learning process and the teacher to realize about the problems and questions that may arise throughout the different topics.
In addition to scheduled classes, students will have to make an effort to manage by their own the fundamental contents of the subject with the continuous support of the Spanish Tax Code.
5.2. Learning tasks
The learning program offered to the students includes the following activities:
1.-Lectures: we opt mainly for the conventional lectures, where the teacher explains the essential features of the Spanish Tax System to approach each topic.
2.-Practical classes: here, three types of activities will be undertaken:
*activities where students will apply theoretical concepts to applied exercises based on real economic contexts
*practical questions aimed to specific key topics
*a collection of tests that allows continuous assessment
3.-Office hours: they allow a direct and personal support of students, explaining doubts about the contents of the subject, and supporting them in the study and resolution of practical exercises. They could be in an individual or group shape.
