Theory classes:

Systemized explanation of the subject topics, giving relevance to the most important concepts. The student acquires the basic scientific knowledge of the subject attending to theory classes, which will complement by self-study of the topics of the subject program.

Case Seminars:

Presentation of clinical cases related to the subject with learning objectives on which students must work individually or in groups, also in small groups, with personal study.

Laboratory classes:

Practical sessions for the observation of anatomical structures and the practical learning of physiological techniques. Group work and active self-learning are promoted.

Preparation of a written review:

Based on a set of topics proposed for the subject, students must meet in groups of no more than four people, and prepare a revision work that will be evaluated by the teaching team of the subject. The revision work will be presented to the rest of the main class group.

N.B. The proposed teaching and assessment methodologies may experience some modifications as a result of the restrictions on face-to-face learning imposed by the health authorities. The teaching staff will use the Moodle classroom or the usual communication channel to specify whether the different directed and assessment activities are to be carried out on site or online, as instructed by the Faculty”.

Continuous assessment

- The skills of this subject will be assessed through objective tests, portfolio and case solutions, and presentation of work with the instruments detailed in the learning evidence table.

- The subject will be passed when a grade equal to or greater than 5.0 has been achieved as an average of the set of EVs. In order to make the weighted average of the EV grades, it is essential to have obtained a grade equal to or greater than 5.0 in EV1 and EV2 evidence and a grade equal to or greater than 4.0 in the rest of the evidence (EV3 and EV4). In case of not meeting these requirements, and others that may be established by the subject, the maximum grade to be recorded in the academic record will be 4.5 points.

- Final retake exam: Students who have not obtained a grade equal to or greater than 5.0 as an average of the set of EVs may take a retake test for the evidence not passed. In EV1 and EV2 it will consist of a multiple-choice test, in the case of EV3 it will be a written test on the knowledge taught in this evidence, and in the case of EV4, the student may submit a new written work on the day of the retake exam.

- A student who has submitted evidence of learning with a weight of less than 4.0 points (40%) will be recorded as "not assessable".

- Students in second year of enrollment or higher may be exempted from participating in practical activities and submitting the review work if they have passed EV3 and EV4 of the previous year. In this case, the grade obtained for EV3 and EV4 will be kept, although they will have the right to waive it in writing and retake it from the beginning of the course. It is not planned to replace the evaluation with a synthesis test.

The possible translation of the statements of the evaluation tests, all the information will be found on the Faculty's website.

Single evaluation

Students can take advantage of the single evaluation system, according to the Faculty's regulations. The single evaluation is requested electronically (e-form) in the specific period (more information on the Faculty's website). The single evaluation will be based on the same content of the subject program, the acquisition of the same skills and will have the same level of demand as the continuous evaluation. Those students who take advantage of the single evaluation will take EV1, EV2 and EV3 on the same day as EV2 (second evaluation period). They will submit EV4 on the same day.

To evaluate each block, an exam consisting of multiple-choice questions and/or restricted written questions will be carried out to evaluate theoretical knowledge of the subject (EV1 and EV2) and concepts related to laboratory practices and case studies (EV3), each with an approximate weighting of 35% and 15% respectively of the overall grade of each system. To pass the subject, a score equal to or greater than 5.0 in the weighted average of the scores must be obtained. Evidence not submitted has a score of 0 (zero) and evidence submitted is considered passed if it has a rating equal to or greater than 5.0. The subject is considered passed as described for continuous assessment and the same recovery system will be followed as for the single assessment. If the student does not pass these tests, he/she may choose to recover them during the recovery period, under the same conditions as students who follow continuous assessment (see the Recovery section).

The review of grades will follow the same procedure as for continuous assessment.

As for the return of evidence, it will be done according to the following table:

For this subject, the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies is only allowed for EV1 and EV2 exclusively in support tasks, such as bibliographic or information searches, text correction or translations. The student must clearly identify which parts have been generated with this technology, specify the tools used and include a critical reflection on how these have influenced the process and the final result of the activities. The lack of transparency in the use of AI in these assessable activities will be considered a lack of academic honesty and may lead to a partial or total penalty in the grade of the activity, or greater sanctions in serious cases. In the case of EV1 of the single assessment, the use of AI can be done during the preparation of the exercises, not during the oral presentation.
