8. VIRTUAL / CLASSROOM TEACHING SCENARIO

Given the number of students and the classrooms capacities, lessons and examination will be given at the classrooms/laboratories. 

Theory: 
- Periodic controls: 20% of final mark.

- Practice: student reports: 80% of final mark.

Both parts (theory and practice) must be passed, otherwise a final exam will be requiered.

9. VIRTUAL TEACHING SCENARIO

LECTURES  

 Lectures will involve:

- Theoretical lessons by means of master classes with student participation. Lessons will be given on line (for example using Google Meet or UJA's web learning system).

- Practice lessons based on the use of project based learning examples, seminars, use of specific software (both photogrammetric and laser scanning) and practice exercises. Material (data, tutorials, documentation, etc.) for the practical exercises will be provided by the lecturers. Practical lessons will be supported on line by UJA's web learnig system and Google Meet.

ASSESMENT

The assessment has two parts: attendance+exercises and practice. 

Attendance+exercises: on-line exam which includes the theoretical and practice contents of the subject and some exercises or problems. UJA's web learning system and Google Meet will be used.

Practice: the assessment is based on the submission of the projects and exercises made during the practice lessons and the actual own-developed project. If required, student can be requested to clarify how they did the exercises by means of on-line platforms (UJA's web learnig system, Google Meet, email, etc.).

The final mark will be the weighted average of the two parts, being the weights 0.2 and 0.8, respectively. In order to pass the subject, it is necessary to get at least a mark of 5.0.
