Academic Practice Sessions

 

Various laboratory practice sessions, with practical field
work that favor the consolidation of theoretical knowledge will be developed.

 

Seminars

Given the wide diversity in the student body it is expected
and markedly scientific nature of the subject, some of these
sessions will be devoted largely to lay the essential botanical and
agronomic basis for the successful development of the subject,
which may involve particular difficulty students.

 

These sessions will also delve into some aspects of the
subject, as is to expand knowledge autecology species.

4. COURSE DESCRIPTION AND TEACHING METHODOLOGY

Theoretical classes where, in addition to transmitting knowledge related to the different topics of this teaching guide, the students' participation will be sought at all times, leading to debates and questioning basic premises of knowledge, in order to try to capture the students' attention continuously and generate a scientific debate.

Academic Sessions Practical: Several practical laboratory sessions will be developed, together with practical fieldwork that favors the strengthening of theoretical knowledge. This
Will greatly increase its performance and profitability.

During the development of the practices, it will try to solve the particular difficulties of the students, as well as, to insist on the concepts and ideas related to the practice in question, that provoke the reflection in the student.

Seminars: Given the great heterogeneity expected in the students and the markedly scientific nature of the subject, some of these sessions will be devoted to a large extent to set the botanical and agronomic bases essential for the good development of the subject, which may be a special difficulty for students. These sessions will also be devoted to deepening some aspects of the subject, such as influencing the autoecology of species. In these sessions, special efforts will be made to ensure the active and positive participation of students by establishing a debate.


Specialized Tutorials: In these sessions will solve all the doubts that the student raised.

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 test date theoretical and practical assessment will be dated by the General Coordinator of the Master and published on the relevant website.

The theoretical and practical examination will be oral. The practical examination of the blocks I and II may be visu on preparations and visionadas during the laboratory sessions and field trips.

The note of work and attendance / participation will be added to the final grade as long as the sum of the scores of theoretical and practical exam exceeds okay.

For participation grade teacher annotations in the various sessions of theory and practice will be considered. 

The rating system will be governed by the provisions of RD 1125/2003 of 5 September by the European credit system and the grading system in the university degrees of official status is established.
