EDUCATION METHODS AND ACTIVITIES
Theory and problem classes will be carried out by participatory lectures. In addition, some case studies will be developed between all the students.
Practical classes will be carried out by practical supervision in tutorial classes. Students must develop and deliver along the semester individual reports of the different practicals. There will be an exam in the last session.
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
ASSESSMENT
T he assessment of the course will be carried out in the following way:
THEORY EXAM. This exam is composed by two parts: Theory (40%) and practical exercises (60%). The mark obtained in this exam will account for 60% of the final mark of the subject. Both parts must be passed independently.
PRACTICALS. Every group of 20 students will be divided in 5 teams of 4 students. Every team will develop some field works and every student must individually do the calculations of the different practicals preparing some reports which must be delivered along the semester. There will be also an individual written exam in the last practical session. The mark obtained in the report (50%), in the individual exam (40%) together to the continuous assessment by the lecturer/instructor along the semester (10%) will constitute the final mark in the practicals part. This will account for 40% of the final mark of the subject. Practicals reports and final exam must be passed independently to pass the practical part.

The multimodal or mixed scenario will be 100% face-to-face, so everything in this teaching guide is applied to the usual face-to-face classes.The School may vary the attendance percentage depending on the number of students and the capacity of the classroom/laboratory according to sanitary measures. In case of less than 100% attendance, there will be periodic rotation of students as determined by the School.
TEACHING METHODOLOGY AND TRAINING ACTIVITIES
- A1 - Expository classes in large group (100% face-to-face). Class to all the students of the group in the assigned schedule and classroom. Participatory face-to-face classes according to the methodology described in this guide with general character.
- A2 - Small group classes (100% face-to-face). Classes to all the students of the group in the assigned schedule and classroom. Practical classes of two hours each, either in the field with surveying instruments or in laboratory for carrying out practicals activities.
- Tutoring (face-to-face and online).
EVALUATION SYSTEM (Ordinary and extraordinary exams)
The evaluation of the subject will be carried out as follows, being necessary to independently approve bothe the theoretical and the practical part:
Extraordinary call 1 (face-to-face 100%)
Theory
Theory and problems exam (60% of the final grade). The theory part constitutes 40% and the problem part 60%. The two parts must be approved independently.
Practices
It is a requirement to have passed the practices in a previous course to appear at this call.
Ordinary call 1 (face-to-face 100%)
Theory
Theory and problems exam (60% of the final grade). The theory part constitutes 40% and the problem part 60%. The two parts must be approved independently. Passed parts of the exam of the ordinary call 1 for the extraordinary 2 will not be saved. The full exam will be saved in case of having been passed, but not having passed the evaluation of the practices.
Practices
Attendance: Attendance at all practice sessions, both in the field and in the office, is mandatory. Failure to comply with this obligation means not passing the practices and, therefore, the subject.
Memories of practices: It is compulsory to make and deliver the corresponding memories on the dates indicated at the beginning of the course to pass the course. In order to pass the practices, you must pass the reports. Failure to present the reports will mean a score of zero points in this part.
Practice exam. It is mandatory to approve it. Failure to submit to it will result in a score of zero points in this part.
The practice mark (40% of the final grade) consists of three parts:
- Continuous evaluation of field and cabinet work (10%)
- Practice memories (50%)
- Practice exam (40%)
Extraordinary call 2 (face-to-face 100%)
Theory
Theory and problems exam (60% of the final grade). The theory part constitutes 40% and the problem part 60%. The two parts must be approved independently.
Practices
Attendance: To appear at the extraordinary call 2, it is necessary to have previously completed and completed the practices during the first semester. You will not be able to pass the subject in the extraordinary call 2 if you have not previously done the practices.
Memories of practices: If they have not been presented in the ordinary call 1, or have not been passed, they can be presented for the extraordinary call 2 on the indicated dates as long as the practices have been carried out during the first semester. To pass the practices, the reports must be approved.
Practice exam. If it has not been approved in the ordinary call 1, it can be done again in the extraordinary call 2. It is mandatory to approve it.
The practice mark (40% of the final grade) consists of three parts:
