4. COURSE DESCRIPTION AND TEACHING METHODOLOGY

The theoretical and practical contents of the subjects of the program will be developed in the big group of class. All the relevant information such as theoretical information and problems’ list will be available on ILIAS website.

In the class in little group, the proposed problems will be completed and the students' participation will be considered. Also, topics related to the theoretical and practical contents of the program will be proposed to be developed as an oral presentation by little groups of two or three students. All the didactic materials, such as chapters information, problems’ list, solved exams of other courses, etc. ill be collected in the corresponding space of the ILIAS platform. Finally, the delivery of exercises, seminars, practices, etc., will be done virtually through the ILIAS website.

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

5. ASSESSMENT METHODOLOGY

The exam, which will be done on the date determined by the University, will be a written test in which there will be, in a weighted way, questions of theory (40% -50%) and practical problems (60% -50%). The aim is to know the degree of assimilation of the theoretical contents of the subject, as well as if the student has been able to reach the competences that are required. The exam will evaluate the competences: B6, B9, C22, Q2, CE23. The score of the seminars, will correspond to the delivery of exercises, development of problems in class and oral presentation. This part evaluates the competences B6, B9, C22, Q2
