In order to achieve the indicated competencies, a combination of the following teaching techniques is proposed:

The classes are developed with the support of visual material, which is provided to the students (through virtual teaching).
b. Practical classes developed through different means: the case method; the approach of exercises; and mandatory group work, which must be developed in groups of up to 4 people, so as to promote learning through teamwork.
c. Tutorials. In person in the office and in the schedule established by the professor. Telematically after consultation by email with the professor.

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

It should be remembered that the grading system will be governed by the provisions of RD 1125/2003 of September 5, 2003, which establishes the European credit system and the grading system for official university degrees. The continuous evaluation procedure is used because it is the most convenient for the acquisition of the established competences. The student's final grade will be determined by the sum of the following works:

1. Realization and oral defense of a business plan, following the criteria established by the professor. The business plan must have an extension of more than 40 pages, a structure according to the presentation of a business project and the application of techniques to assess the technical, commercial and economic-financial feasibility of the business idea proposed.
2. Class attendance, lectures and seminars: continuous class attendance and active participation of students will be assessed. For this purpose, the instruments used will be the observation and the teacher's notes, resulting from the dialectic and heuristic teaching methods. 
3. Performance of assignments, case studies and exercises. Throughout the course different practical exercises will be carried out to evaluate the mastery of the theoretical and operative knowledge of the contents exposed in the class. The evaluation criteria of these works will be subject to the structure of the exercise, the analytical and critical capacity of the student in its resolution, the quality and rigor of the documentation, the originality and the spelling and presentation.
