4. COURSE DESCRIPTION AND TEACHING METHODOLOGY

  • Theoretical sessions with audiovisual support (presentations, videos, research project websites), including specialized seminars and conferences, and debate sessions. Significant learning will be enhanced through the incorporation of debates that allow for a critical approach to the Prehistory of the Iberian Peninsula.
  • Theoretical sessions will be complemented by practical sessions associated with visits to archaeological sites and museums, as well as attendance at conferences. Within the framework of these practical sessions, an individual assignment will be carried out, consisting of a critical commentary on the visit and/or the conference. These sessions will be completed with group projects on a research topic defined in class. A practical guide for the assignment (structure, editing rules, research objectives, etc.) will be provided in the designated space (Platea).

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

The student must pass the theoretical exam to include the assessment of group and individual work. En the theoretical exam, theoretical/practical contents developed in class and scheduled outings will be assessed, as well as coherence, cohesion, and grammatical correctness.

Research work and visits to archaeological sites will be mandatory. The student will not pass the subject if they have not done both of them, research work and the visit to archaeological site. 

When the research work and/or the visit to archaeological site have not been delivered on the scheduled date, you can proceed as follows to pass the extraordinary exam: 

-Submit research work the day of the exam for the extraordinary session.
