4. COURSE DESCRIPTION AND TEACHING METHODOLOGY

The theoretical academic sessions   consist of lectures of the program content for the whole group to give students a general and systematic vision of the various topics, highlighting the most important aspects of them, in such a way that clearly offers students the possibility of motivation by those who are experts in the field through dialogue and the exchange of ideas. Prior exposure of the objectives of each chapter and its specific applications to the field of chemistry, will form the basis for focus their interest and motivate their learning. The further development of each chapter is preceded by a general description of contents, illustrated through Microsoft Office PowerPoint presentations in English language, of which the students will have previously on the ILIAS platform, as well as the help of slate in those contents that require it. Audiovisual sessions for a better understanding of the contents are used in some chapters. The active participation of the student will be raised at these sessions.

The practical academic sessions   in the classroom are indispensable to consolidate the theoretical knowledge and deepen them. They consist of the resolution both professor  and student of problems relating to the themes developed in the master classes that will develop the student skills capacity for analysis, troubleshooting and application of knowledge to practice, promoting participation and self-confidence of students. On the other hand, experimental laboratory practices will take place in small groups (max. 25 students), which will be announced experimental techniques relevant for the study of materials and methodologies. The students will have a script with the documentation required for the realization of the practices previously. Practices will consist of a brief theoretical explanation and then the explanation of the operation of the instruments to be used. Subsequently students pass to carry out this practice, preparing a report that will be evaluated.  Also will be computer with the CES EduPack software practices to support and improve teaching materials above, engineering, design and sustainability. CES EduPack provides a comprehensive database with information on materials and processes of transformation, powerful software tools and a variety of supporting material. It also includes a structured methodology that will allow students to compare materials and processes, as well as exercise material selection.

Collective tutorials   : sessions in which students will expose the professor: resolution of doubts or questions in understanding the contents, orientation, review of problems, monitoring and evaluation of the aimed activities, as well as presentation and exhibition of works, etc.

 

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
