The expository classes to the group are carried out through
the methodology of the master class. The contents: exposition of
the theoretical bases, general examples, problems derived from the
exposed theory and explanatory activities. Inquiries on the
Internet of pages relating to electric traction (electric vehicle,
electric motorcycle, electric bicycle, electric trains, etc.).
Smart grids Distributed generation systems.
Classes in groups of practices, aspects related to the influence of
the electric vehicle on electrical systems and distributed
generation systems. And the regulation, starting and
control of the motors used in electric traction.

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

Objective test on the contents of the subject. Test that will
consist of some quick response questions and some problem. In this
section we evaluate the
CEL7 competence and the learning outcomes 59, 60, 61, 62 and 63.
Individual work. It is chosen from a list proposed by the teacher.
It will be delivered together with the presentation, on the Virtual
Teaching platform. The expansion and contents will be agreed with
the teacher.
Laboratory practices and teamwork. It will be proposed by the
teacher and each student will perform a part of it. It will be
defended at the end of the course and each student will present the
completed part. The evaluation will be individual. Maximum duration
of group exposure 2 hours, maximum number of components 2. Through
these works the CEL7 competence and the learning results 59, 60,
61, 62 and 63 are evaluated.
Through active participation in class participation in the debates,
participation in group work, the CEL7 competence and the learning
outcomes 59, 60, 61, 62 and 63 are evaluated.
