Students will be asked individually developing a research plan based on the material taught in the course content. discussions on the work produced and presented orally in class sessions will be held.
Be taken into account:
The initiative and innovative contributions, quality of work in terms of form and content, and presentation. Presentation skills and public defense work (special attention to the use of new technologies), and the bibliography.
Regarding the participation and understanding of the subject, it will serve both individual contributions and group, taking into account cooperative learning strategies, participation, class activities and expected capacity in the student study activities (case studies, storm ideas, forums, Phillips 66, round tables, etc.). In this part, daily attendance to theoretical and practical classes will also be assessed. (Will not be differentiated) Participation in theory and practice, teacher observation, participation in debates, defending ideas, interest, attention, and degree of achievement of proposed activities and teacher Web virtual platform
Note: Virtual activities will be held throughout the duration of the matter and will complement those made in class. Specifically it comes to reading documents, analysis of problems related to the matter, finding information on Web pages provided by teachers, telematic contact between team members working to finalize various parts of the work which will then be treated in the commissioning and face common shares forum and blog to express their views on the issues 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
