The teaching methodology will be that indicated in the original course program although in this case, only 50% of the students will attend face-to-face classes and 50% by videoconference. Attendance will be on a rotating basis.
(*) The Centre may establish a different percentage of
attendance depending on the number of students and the capacity of
the classroom/laboratory in accordance with health measures.
(**) The Centre may establish rotating attendance depending
on the number of students and capacity of the classroom/laboratory
in accordance with health measures (class in the timetable and
classroom/laboratory assigned to a part of the group and
retransmission by videoconference to the rest, with periodic
rotation of students, as determined by the Centre).
The evaluation system will be as indicated in the original guide although the exam will be replaced by an online exam with the same weight and the oral presentation will also be carried out online.
TEACHING METHODOLOGY
The online videoconference system Google Meet substitute face-to-face interaction in the same official week, days and times established in the official timetables.
Practical session will be replaced by learning activities online (synchronous/ asynchronous) and the project will be oral presented by Hangout Meet.
ASSESSMENT SYSTEM
- Online final exam in the virtual classroom (Hangout Meet): 50%
- Practical activities: 50%
RESOURCES AND FACILITIES
Analysis of practical cases and oral presentations will be online with Google Meet.
The adaptation to online teaching implies the use of synchronous and asynchronous activities with the support offered at the Intranet site -Docencia Virtual- at Universidad de Jaén and videoconferences by Hangout Meet.
