4. COURSE DESCRIPTION AND TEACHING METHODOLOGY

In the development of the course can be differentiated four activities:

  - Delivery of lectures,

  - Practical classes (seminars and lab sections)

  - Other academically supervised activities (individual and group tutorials)

-  Global continuous assessment

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

*   Control student attendance to theoretical and practical classes will be held.
