4. COURSE DESCRIPTION AND TEACHING METHODOLOGY

Classes of theory for all the group (big group): The theoretical aspects of the subjects will be exposed along with general practical examples.

 

Problems classes in small groups: 15 hours will be devoted to the resolution of problems and exercises with applications in Economy.

 

Computer classes in small groups: 15 hours will be carried out in the computer laboratory with the aid of the software Wolfram Research Mathematica.

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

Items considered to compute the mark:

(S1) (1 point = 10% of the total mark) Attendance and/or participation: The attendance to the theory, problems and computer classes will be considered taking into account the active participation of the students, in the terms that the professor will determine, to give the following points:

  1. Theory/problems: 0.5 points (5%).
  2. Computer practices: 0.5 point (5%).

  

(S2) (8 points = 80% of the total mark) Basic concepts of the subject.

  1. Theory/problems, 7 points (70%): Written exam at the end of the quarter . Alternatively, a continuous assesment system could be proposed to obtain this 7 points along the quarter.
  2. Computer practices, 1 point (10%): Exam in the computer classroom at the end of the quarter . Alternatively, a continuous assesment system could be proposed to obtain the point of this item along the quarter.

 

(S3) (1 point = 10% of the total mark) Works, exercises or short exams proposed by the professor along the quarter.

 

Unless a continuous assesment system which indicates the contrary is proposed, the following criteria will also be applied:

 

*The points obtained in (S1) and (S3) will be maintained for all the official exam calls of the course.

 

*The mark obtained in the exam of computer practices, item (S2)-2, will be maintained for all the official exam calls of the course. Only the last mark obtained in an official practices exam will be considered no matter if the student had better marks in previous calls.

 

*The final mark of those students that did not attend the theory exam, item (S2)-1, will be 'No Presentado' no matter if they participate in any of the rest of the activities of the course.

 

*The final mark will be sum of the points obtained in (S1), (S2) and (S3) provided that in item (S2)-1 the student obtains at least 3 points (out of 10).

Tutoring

On-site/on-line

Tutoring hours will be both individual face-to-face in the office of the professor and on-line by videoconference.

 

2)    Assesment system  

The assesment system with all aspects and weights will be the one indicated for the face-to-face scenary.

The assesment for Attendance/participation  (S1) and Works/exercises/short exams (S3) will be based on the on-line tools that are also used for the face-to-face modality.

The exams in item (S2) will be hold face-to-face preferably. In case that this is impossible due to number of classrooms and technical means available, an on-line videoconference exam system will be used.

 

3) RESOURCES

For the on-line teaching computer, tablet or mobile phone with internet connection and Wolfram Research Mathematica software installed is required. A document scanning application will be also necessary. Besides, we will make use of the Docencia Virtual system of the University of Jaén, the platform SiDoc of the Department of Mathematics as well as the Google tools offered by the University of Jaén. Moreover, the bibliographic electronic resources abailable through the Library of the University of Jaen will be employed.
