A1. Lectures with big group of students.

They are based in the explanation of the theory concepts, exercises and practical problems of the course.

A2. Lectures with practical groups.

They are developed in the lab, and they are based on the explanation of the practical units in the lab and their execution by the students.

A3. Tutorials.

The tutorials will be used by the students for the resolution of doubts.

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

At the end of the semester, the student has to choose between two methods of evaluation: CONTINUOUS EVALUATION or FINAL EXAM.

CONTINUOUS EVALUATION

This assessment method is organised according to the activities described in the previous table.

To pass the subject, the student has to get a mark higher or equal than 5.0 out of 10 in the overall result of the evaluated aspects, as long as he or she has obtained a mark higher or equal than 4.0 in each one of those assessed aspects.

FINAL EXAM EVALUATION

This kind of evaluation is based in only one written exam that evaluates all the aspects of the subject, by assessing the students' acquisition of all the competences and learning outcomes established in the subject. This exam will take place during the Examination period on a date established by the centre. The final exam is weighted in the following way:

- Attendance and participation (S1), Theoretical concepts (S2) and Exercises, problems and study cases (S3): 70%.

- Laboratory and computer practical work (S4): 30%.

 In order to pass the subject, the student must have marks higher or equal to 5.0 out of 10 at each part of the final exam.

The students who have already fulfilled the requirements of aspect S4 (Laboratory or computer practical work) through the CONTINUOUS EVALUATION, by obtaining a mark higher or equal to 5.0 out of 10 do not have to make this part in the FINAL EXAM evaluation.

Those aspects successfully completed with a mark higher or equal to 5.0 will be considered passing during that academic year.

DETAILS OF THE EVALUATION

The continuous evaluation is based on the next aspects:
* S1, Attendance and active participation (10%)
* S2, Theoretical concepts (30%)
* S3, Exercises, cases and works (30%)
* S4, Laboratory practising (30%)

S1. Attendance and active participation (10%)

In this aspect, the CB9,CG3,CG4,CG8,CT3 competences are evaluated. A positive evaluation leads to the achievement of these competences or the learning results 27,28,29,30,31.

The attendance will be taken into account within the laboratory activities, the active participation in the lectures and attendance to evaluation activities. The participation in the evaluation activities is mandatory in order to pass S1 aspect.

S2. Theoretical concepts (30%)

In this aspect, the CB6, CB7, CB8, CB9, CB10, CG1, CG2, CG3, CG4, CG5, CG6, CG7, CG8, CG9, CG10, CT1, CT2, CT3, CT4, CT5, CT6, CT7, CE4, CE6, CE8 competences are evaluated. A positive evaluation leads to the achievement of these competences or the learning results 27,28,29,30,31.

This aspect is evaluated with two written evaluations within the teaching period.

S3. Exercises, cases and works (30%)

In this aspect, the CB6, CB7, CB8, CB9, CB10, CG4, CG5, CG6, CG7, CG8, CG9, CG10, CT1, CT2, CT3, CT4, CT5, CT6, CT7, CE4, CE6, CE8 competences are evaluated. A positive evaluation leads to the achievement of these  competences or the learning results 27,28,29,30,31.

This aspect is evaluated with written evaluations within the teaching period. 

S4. Laboratory practising (30%)

In this aspect, the CB6, CB7, CB8, CB9, CB10, CG3, CG4, CG5, CG6, CG7, CG8, CG9, CG10, CT1, CT2, CT3, CT4, CT5, CT6, CT7, CE4, CE6, CE8 competencies are evaluated. A positive evaluation leads to the achievement of these competences or the learning results 27,28,29,30,31.

The students will write technical reports for the practical activities along the semester. The laboratory practising will be evaluated with these reports together with an exam of the programming skills learned in Practical 3. It is mandatory to pass this exam in order to pass S4 aspect.

Teaching methodology and learning activities

Schedule

The schedule can vary mainly due to the change from multi-modal scenario to the online one.

Evaluation system

There are no changes in the evaluation format (weights of each section) or in what is specified in the detailed evaluation.

Since the evaluation of the subject is continuous, there will only be an exam in the event that the student opts for the Single Test Evaluation, which is summarized in the following tables:

Ordinary call

Extraordinary call

Resources

Given that the attendance in the large group lectures and in the classes in practice groups is 100%, no exceptional resources are foreseen for them.

Resources

Since all the teaching, either in the exposition classes in large groups or in the classes in practice groups, be taught online, the following resources will need to be used:

Common telematics resources (teachers and students):

- PC equipment or similar.

- Software for development of practical Units.

- Videoconference system or virtual classroom, such as Google Meet or BigBlueButton.

- Use of interactive tools: screen sharing to use comments as a virtual whiteboard in PDF presentations.

- Use of the teaching platform of the University of Jaén: messaging, forums, tasks, activities and means of evaluation.
