Syllabus Information

5.1. Methodological overview

The learning process designed for this subject is based on the folowing:

The subject is strongly based on practice, so it has many practical work in classes.

The organization of teaching will be carried out using the following steps:

• Theory Classes: Theoretical activities carried out mainly through exposition by the teacher, where the theoretical supports of the subject are displayed, highlighting the fundamental, structuring them in topics and or sections, interrelating them.

• Practical Classes: The teacher resolves practical problems or cases for demonstrative purposes. This type of teaching complements the theory shown in the lectures with practical aspects.

• Laboratory Workshop: The lecture group is divided up into various groups, according to the number of registered students, but never with more than 20 students, in order to make up smaller sized groups.

• Individual Tutorials: Those carried out giving individual, personalized attention with a teacher from the department. Said tutorials may be in person or online.

5.2. Learning tasks

The programme offered to the student to help them achieve their target results is made up of the following activities..

Face-to-face generic activites:

• Theory Classes: The theoretical concepts of the subject are explained and illustrative examples are developed as support to the theory when necessary.
• Practical Classes: Problemas and practical classes are carried out, complementary to the theoretical concepts studied.
• Laboratory Workshop: This work is tutored by a teacher, in groups of no more than 20 students.

Generic non-class activities

• Study and understanding of the theory taught in the lectures.
• Understanding and assimilation of the problems and practical casses solved in the practical classes.
• Solving proposed problems, project, etc.
• Preparation of laboratory workshops, preparation of summaries and reports.
• Preparation of the writen tests for continuous assessment and final exams.
