Lectures: Systematic exhibition of the subject's programme, giving relevance to the most important concepts. The student acquires the basic scientific knowledge of the subject in theory classes, which will complement the personal study of the exposed themes.

Problem based learning (PBL): Students will work in small groups, under the teacher supervision, on specific problems during 3 sessions of 2 hours each one for each case, and a total of 2 cases. At the end of each case, the work will be exposed to the rest of the classmates.

In general, the platform for communication and material transfer used will be Moodle. 

\"Teachers should allocate approximately 15 minutes of some class to allow their students to answer the surveys of evaluation of teaching performance and evaluation of the subject or module\"

The competences of this subject will be evaluated through: exams, group work and public presentations.

The evaluation system is organized in two modules, each of which will have a specific weight assigned in the final qualification:

• Problem Based Learning Module (ABP) (25%). The aspects that will be taken into account for the qualification will be: the interest and the quality of the work demonstrated throughout the development of the case for each one of the students and the group, and the final presentation. In the case of repeating students, if the qualification of this learning evidence in previous courses was equal to or greater than 5, they can renounce to repeat the activity and this qualification will be used to calculate the global grade of the subject. Due to the characteristics of the activity, this learning evidence is not recoverable.
• Written test module (75%). There will be two exams, each one corresponding to a half of the subject taught in lecture sessions. Exams will be test type with four multiple-choice options.

Requirements to calculate the global qualification

The weighted average of the scores will be applied only if a grade equal to or higher than 4 is obtained in each of the partial exams.

In order to calculate an average between the partial exams and the PBLs (Problem-Based Learning activities), and consequently to pass the course, a minimum average grade of 5 in the partial exams must be achieved.

The grade \"Not Assessable\" will be given if the number of assessment activities completed is less than 50% of those scheduled for the course.

Recovery exam / retake process

To participate in the recovery (resit) exam, students must have previously been assessed in a set of activities whose weight is equivalent to at least two-thirds of the total grade for the course. Therefore, students will receive the grade \"Not Assessable\" if the completed assessment activities account for less than 67% of the final grade.

Partial exams in which the exam score was below 4 can be retaken. However, Students who wish to improve the grade of one or both partial exams may do so in theresit exam, but must first waive the previously obtained grade in the corresponding partial exam.

The format of the resit exams may include multiple-choice questions and/or short-answer questions to be developed by the student.

EXAMINATION-BASED (single) ASSESSMENT

The two problem-based learning sessions (APBs) are compulsory for all students, including those enrolling to the single assessment option. The evaluation and weighting of these sessions on the final grade will be the same as those of the continuous evaluation (ABP case 1: 12.5%; APB case 2:12.5%).

Single assessment consists of a single examination (with multiple-choice questions) onthe contents of the entire theory programme.

The mark obtained in this test is 75% of the final grade of the subject.

The single assessment examination will coincide with the same date established in the calendar for the last continuous assessment test and the same recovery system will be applied as for continuous assessment.

To pass the subject, a minimum score of 4 points out of 10 must be obtained in the multiple-choice test in order to be able to average with the marks obtained in the APB sessions.

Students who wish to improve the qualification of one or both partial exams may do it in the recovery exam, previously renouncing to the qualification obtained in the corresponding partial exam.

Copy and plagiarism

Copying or plagiarism, whether in assignments or in exams, constitutes an offense that may result in failing the course.

Any irregularity committed during an assessment activity (academic fraud, plagiarism, or improper use of artificial intelligence, unless such use is expressly authorized in the course syllabus) that could lead to a significant change in the grade will result in that assessment being graded as 0. If the course syllabus stipulates that obtaining a minimum grade on that assessment is an essential requirement for passing the course, or if multiple irregularities occur across the assessment activities of the same course, the final grade for the course will be 0. In addition, disciplinary proceedings may be initiated against any student who commits any of these irregularities.
