The theoretical contents of the course will be taught the following methodology:
- The index of the chapter will be analyzed, introduction and objectives will be read and the theoretical contents are developed.
- The literature will be recommended
- Audiovisual media for the development of the theory session will be used.
- At the end of the development of the chapter, a summary will be made and various issues will be discussed so that students can express their opinions.
The practical content of the course will follow the following methodology:
He analyzed the practices to develop and target them
He analyzed the software or media chosen for the implementation of practices
He will perform a memory or work, individual or group practice under study.
Specialized Tutorials: in the course thereof, the / as students attend in order to discuss the development of their studies, helping them to overcome the difficulties of learning.
Virtual Teaching Platform for tracking of the subject is used.

Students with special educational needs should contact the Student Attention Service (Servicio de Atención y Ayudas al Estudiante) in order to receive the appropriate academic support

DETAILED ASSESSMENT

For the evaluation of the theoretical knowledge of the subject a theoretical written examination in the official call will be made.
The rating of the theoretical contents will mean 40% of the final grade.
By testing written exam cel2 competition will be evaluated. Overcoming this theoretical part credited the achievement of learning outcomes 15,16,17,18.
Conducting individual or group work, consist in the development of an energy audit (25% of score)
The realization of all other practice sessions represent 15% of the final grade.
With the completion of the CT2 and CT4 work skills will be evaluated. Overcoming these works credited the achievement of learning outcomes 18,19 and 20.
Attendance and active participation in class will be evaluated by teachers and will account for 20% of the final grade.
