4. COURSE DESCRIPTION AND TEACHING METHODOLOGY

Lectures

These sessions are organized into two hours per week during the course. The methodologies used are the lecture and presentations of examples and problems. During these sessions, student participation is encouraged by the teacher conducting questions.

The contents of the examples and problems will be focused on the CC17, CT5, CB2, CB3, CB4 and CB5 skills, using the knowledge acquired in the theory classes.

In the learning management system will be available the entire material theory and exercises . This material must be revised before each session of theory with the help of the course booklist.

Practice sessions

Practice sessions will be two hours long, and will be held weekly during the semester. The practice script for each session will be available beforehand, so that the students can work on the exercises on on their own before the session. During the practice session, the teacher will give a short lecture about the main concepts in the script, and will solve questions from the students. Then, the students will work with the computers to solve the practice exercises from the script under the teacher guidance. The script solutions will be derivered by the learning management system. Some exercises will be orally presented by the students.

Group seminars

There will be several group seminars during the semester. The students will have to solve practical exercises by working in groups of two or three persons, and applying the theoretical concepts explained in normal lectures. The teacher will help the groups by solving any question they ask. At the end of the seminar, the teacher will pick up each group's work, and will mark them; these marks will included in the final marks of the students. The seminar dates will be published in the official schedule at the beginning of the semester.
