4. COURSE DESCRIPTION AND TEACHING METHODOLOGY

Face-to-face 100% Theory and practices (**). The Center may establish rotating attendance depending on the number of students and capacity of the classroom / laboratory (class in the schedule and classroom / laboratory assigned to one part of the group and broadcast by videoconference to the rest, with periodic rotation of students , as determined by the Center).

Class to all the students of the group in the assigned time and classroom.

Methodology: Participation during regular classes (theoretical or practical lessons, technical visits, and through Ilias Platform (University of Jaén virtual campus-online) will be taken into account. At the beginning of our course, students must incorporate into a team group (3 or 4 persons per group) and  argue with professor the aim of their personal or team work, of course refers to one of the topic of our course. Finally, students will expose their own research and team work. One final exam will be done at the end of the semester about theoretical and practical aspect defined. Besides, during the semester are arranged several technical visits. In order to enroll the students in this course, all students must be register inside PLATEA Platform as soon as possible.

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

  • Student participation will make up to 20% of the final mark. Participation in asynchronous forums through PLATEA platform is considered as well as the development of some collaborative tasks through Google DOCs.

  • Final exam will be about theoretical and practical aspect defined during the course and will make up to 40 % of the final mark. It will be mandatory to get at least 1 point over 4p to add the scores of the continuous evaluation.
  • Two writen works (.docx) and their oral presentations (pptx) will be worth up to 40% of the mark (two different tasks will be proposed: a personal work (20%)  and a team-work (20%) that they must be defended during or at the end of our first semester respectively.

8. VIRTUAL / CLASSROOM TEACHING SCENARIO

METHODOLOGY. The percentages assigned  are the same established in the regular scenario ( face-to-face) .

*The Center may vary the attendance percentage depending on the number of students and the capacity of the classroom / laboratory. In the case of less than 100% attendance, there will be periodic rotation of students as determined by the Center.

Training Activities

  RESOURCES

Since the group has been below 15 students, the theory classes can be taught in a classroom with sufficient capacity where there are means to make videoconferences through GOOGLE MEET for theory classes and guided practical sessions if necessary due to an increase in the number of students or other more severe distancing conditions (in previous courses theory and guided sessions were taught in the D264 laboratory of the A3 -room with a capacity up to 30 people-. The practical sessions called TECHNICAL VISITS will depend on the possibility of conducting them on site and in Your case will be replaced by other guided work and sessions recorded by the teacher on site.

In format non face-to-face it will be offered not only the tools integrated into the UJA platform PLATEA in synchronous or asynchronous way (content, forums, delivery of work and / or practices) will be offered as well as the possibility of using the Google DOCs tool.

The electronic bibliographic resources will be those available in the BUJA and on others web pages of interest for the matter that concerns us.
