4. COURSE DESCRIPTION AND TEACHING METHODOLOGY

COURSE DESCRIPTION AND TEACHING METHODOLOGY   Lab sessions including wet-lab procedures in Cellular Biology and Histology, and diagnosis of histological sections.  Seminars: Nine reports focused on given issues of the program contents using web based multimedia approaches with on-line assessments. On-line tutorials.

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

ASSESSMENT METHODOLOGY   Two assessments of the theoretical contents, with a possible additional assessment in June to those students with a final mark under 5 (over 10) at any of them.  Continuous assessment of the practical contents and seminars, with a final oral or written presentation.  Assessment of the microscopical examination of tissue sections.  Practical sessions are mandatory.
