Teaching will combine lectures and seminars. The first part of the class will be based on the lecturer’s explanation. The second part of the class will be dedicated to the preparation, correction and commentary of works and papers presented by the students, as well as to doubts and questions about topics raised by students. 

IMPORTANT: If a student copies, plagiarises or is caught with a prohibited device during an assessment activity, this assessment activity will receive a grade of 0, and the Dean's Office will be notified by submitting a report detailing the circumstances and evidence of the incident. This report will be used to request the initiation of possible disciplinary proceedings against the student. This assessment activity will not be eligible for retake. If further irregularities occur during assessment activities for the same course, the final grade for this subject will be 0.

Continuous assessment system:

Continuous assessment requieres attendance at theory- and seminar-classes. Students who do not attend a minimum of 80% of the classes will not pass the subject. The 20% of theory- and seminar-sessions that students may not attend include ordinary situations that can cause them to be absent from class. Except for reasonable justification, it is not allowed to enter the class once it has started or to leave before its completion.

The final grade for the subject will be obtained from the result of the different individual papers (40%), group-works (10%) and the theoretical and/or practical multiple choice exam (50%). Each item and sub-item that make up the assessment must be passed. Throughout the semester the possibility of reassessing papers and works will be offered. On the published re-evaluation date, those students who have failed the test may be re-examined.

After carrying out and qualifying each assessable activity, teaching staff will set a date so that the students can review it.

Students will be assessable as long as they have completed a set of activities whose weight is equivalent to a minimum of 2/3 of the total grade for the subject. If the value of the activities carried out does not reach this threshold, teaching staff could not assess the student.

During seminar-classes the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies in team work is permitted exclusively for support tasks (such as information research, language tools or translations). The student must clearly identify the parts that have been generated with such technology, specify the tools used and include a critical thinking about how such tools have influenced the process and the final outcome of the activity. Non-transparency in the use of AI in the assessable activities of the subject will be considered a lack of academic honesty and may lead to a partial or total penalty in the grade of the activity, or to more serious penalties in certain cases.

Single assessment system:

Students will be assessed on the basis of a unique evaluation. This evaluation will include three types of activities:

.Theoretical and/or practical exam (50%): The format will be multiple choice. Duration: 60 minutes

.Oral presentation (25%): Two sections or subsections of the programme wil be offered and the student must select one to present it orally.The student will be given a maximum of 10 minutes to prepare the presentation; next, the student will make the oral defense (5 minutes), and, finally, the student will answer the questions arisen by teaching staff.

.Case paper (25%): The question(s) formulated in the case paper will have to be answered. Duration: 60 minutes

To pass the course, the student needs a minimum score of 2,5 points in the exam, 1,25 points in the oral presentation and 1,25 points in the case paper. Only failed activity will be subject to re-evaluation.
