Syllabus Information

5.1. Methodological overview

The learning process designed for this course follows an orderly step-wise process, so that the course starts with the study of basic and integration concepts which are mainly worked through lectures, then it introduces the student to develop skills involving procedural, integration and understanding skills of the applications of the subject to be worked through various activities in small groups in practical sessions.

To better track the learning process students will be encouraged to use the tutoring/office hours through various systems and methods: conventional tutoring or more specific assistance related to practical work.

Communications, announcements, and supplementary materials will be provided via Moodle in the Anillo Digital Docente (intranet ADD).

5.2. Learning tasks

Participatory lectures: basic concepts of the subject are showed, directing students towards the acquisition of skills and learning outcomes. Audiovisual support material will be used and students could find it in the intranet ADD. During these activities, students will be encouraged to be participatory and dynamic. This activity occupies 4 ECTS, 40 hours in the lecture room.

Practical sessions occupying 2 ECTS, 20 hours spread over six sessions of 2 hours including:

a) Anatomy practices: Head, Neck, masticatory apparatus, teeth.

b) Laboratory sessions: students will have the opportunity to perform functional examinations of the main physiological processes related to the program.

All students will be informed about the risks that may have the realization of the practices of this subject, and if dangerous products are handled, and what to do in case of accident. To perform them is compulsory to sign a commitment to comply with lab standards and safety. It is the student's responsibility to be aware of all such issues and act in an extremely cautious manner to avoid any potential causes for accidents in the laboratory. For more information, see the information for students of the Occupational Health and Safety Unit: http://uprl.unizar.es/estudiantes.html

Before each session, students will have available the protocol of the practice. At the end of it, students submit to the teacher a laboratory assignment with answers to questions about the practice performed and the results obtained. Along with the degree of participation and teamwork done, this assignment will grade this part of the course.

Tutorials: both individual and grouped, for guidance in the teaching-learning of the subject.

Personal Study: From all other activities, students should be responsible for creating diagrams and structured work programs.
