The training activities are divided into two sections: theory classes and problem classes. Each of them has its own specific methodology. These activities will be complemented by a series of tutoring sessions that will be programmed additionally.

Theory classes

The teacher will explain the contents of the syllabus with the support of graphic material (class presentations) that will be made available to students through the Virtual Campus of the subject.

These lectures will be the most important part of the theory section.

Problems classes

During the course, 10 hours will be devoted to class sessions of problems.

The group will be divided into two equitable subgroups in number, whose lists will be made public at the beginning of the course. Students will attend the sessions programmed by their group.

At the beginning of the semester, the dossier of statements of subject problems that will be solved during the course will be delivered through the Moodle classroom. The dossier will contain 5 blocks according to the problem agenda and each block will include 3-4 statements. The teacher will solve the problems of the dossier during the face-to-face sessions. If deemed necessary, the teacher will be able to impart supplementary theory material necessary to solve the problems corresponding to one of the blocks. It is advisable that students prepare the resolution of the problems as self-employed before the session, in order to optimize learning.

Tutorials

Individual tutorials will be carried out at the request of the students. In the event that the number of applications was extremely high, especially for partial examinations, up to 3 classroom tutorials that would be announced on a timely basis through the Virtual Campus could be carried out. The objective of these sessions will be to resolve doubts, review basic concepts. These sessions will not be exhibitable nor in them will be advanced matter of the official agenda, but will be sessions ofdebate and discussion.

Teachers will dedicate approximately 15 minutes of a class to allow their students to answer the evaluation surveys of the teaching performance and evaluation of the subject or module.

A/ Continuous assessment

The evaluation of this subject will have the format of continuous evaluation with a final test of recovery. To participate in the recovery, the students must have been previously evaluated in a set of activities whose weight equals to a minimum of two thirds of the total grade of the subject or module. Therefore, students will obtain the \"Non-Valuable\" qualification when the assessment activities carried out have a weighting of less than 67% in the final grade. The objective of the continuous evaluation is to encourage the student's effort throughout the semester, allowing to monitor their degree of follow-up and understanding of the subject. The final test of recovery is used to verify that the student has reached the necessary degree of integration of knowledge of the subject, in case of having suspended the continuous evaluation.

1) Theory

Individual assessment through:

Two partial tests with quiz questions and short answer questions.

A final test for recovering that will have the same format as the partial ones. This exam is aimed at students who have obtained a grade of less than 3.5 in partial tests.

The weight of the theory evaluation will be 75% of the total, 37,5% for each partial.

2) Problems

a) Individual assessment through:

Two partial tests where problems were solved in problem-solving blogs (2-3 problems for a partial test).

A final recovery test with problemscorresponding to the problem agenda. This exam is aimed at students who have not passed with grade of less than 3.5 in partial test.

The weight of the individual evaluation of problems will be 20% of the total.

b) Evaluation of synthesis problems:

Twice during the course, a summary problem will be given through the Moodle classroom that students willhave to solve in teams of 4 students and return to the teacher within the set period. Each of these synthesis problems will be corrected and evaluated. If a group does not deliver the problems or does it outside the set deadline, it will receive a score of 0. If a student delivers the problem individually and / or out of time, he will receive a rating of 0. It is the responsibility of the students checked that the computer file with the problem of synthesis resolved was delivered correctly in time and form. The qualification of this part will be calculated as the average of the qualifications of the two synthesis problems. The mark obtained will be the same for all the team members, as long as all of them have participated in the resolution of the synthesis problem in an equivalent way. The involvement of the different members of the team will be checked by means of a small individual and confidential survey, where each member of the team will evaluate himself and the rest of the members. This note will modulate the note obtained in the synthesis problems. The weight of the evaluation of team problems will be 5% of the total.

To 75% of the theory grade will be added the 20% corresponding to problems grade and the 5% corresponding to the deliveries.

The two sections (Theory and Problems) are inseparable, so that the student must participate, and be evaluated, in both to overcome the matter. To be able to make the average of the marks between partial tests, without going to the final test of recovery, the student will have to obtain in each one of the partials a qualification equal or superior to 3,5. In addition, in the case of the problems, the global note of the problem module (individual evaluation + synthesis problems evaluation) must be equal to or greater than 3.5 to be able to ponder with the blockof theoretical note.

If the global note of the problem module or the theory note is lower than the minimum marks required, it will not be possible to do the weighting and the subject will receive a maximum final grade of 3.5.

In the recovery examinations you must also obtain a qualification of 3.5 or more to be able to do the weighting.

Those students who have passed the partial proofs of theory and / or problems want to improve their qualification may choose to present themselves to the proof of recovery of the whole subject matter or one of the partial ones (theory and / or problems). The student who is present in the note will quit the note obtained above.

- To participate in the recovery, the students must have been previously evaluated in a series of activities whose weight equals to a minimum of two thirds of the total grade of the subject. Therefore, students will obtain the \"Non-Appraising\" qualification when the assessment activities carried out have a weighting of less than 67% in the final grade

It is necessary to obtain a final grade equal to or greater than 5 to pass the subject, either through partial tests or through the final recovery test.

B/ Single assessment

In the single assessment, the student will be examined in the same call in the two main parts of the subject as following:

1. Theory part: It will be a single synthesis exam that includes the contents of the entire theory program and will consist of multiple-choice questions and short-answer questions. The weight of the theory part in the overall grade of the subject will be 75%.
2. Part of classroom practices (problems): It consists of an exam composed of 2 to 3 exercises to be solved by the student and that includes the contents of the entire program of problems. The weight of this part in the overall grade of the subject will be 20%. The remaining 5% corresponds to the grade of the deliveries that the student will have made through the virtual campus on the date agreed with the teacher.

- The single assessment test will be held on the same day, time and place as the last continuous assessment test of the subject.

- The same recovery system will be applied as for continuous assessment. The single assessment can be retaken on the day set for the retake of the continuous assessment.

- The same non-assessable criterion will be applied as for continuous assessment.

To 75% of the theory grade will be added the 20% corresponding to problems grade and the 5% corresponding to the deliveries.

It is necessary to obtain a final grade equal to or greater than 5 to pass the subject.

C/ About the irregularities in the evaluation acts (academic fraud, plagiarism or misuse of AI):

"Any irregularity committed during an assessment activity (academic misconduct, plagiarism, or improper use of AI, unless such use is expressly authorized in the course syllabus) that may lead to a significant alteration of the grade will result in that activity being graded as 0. If the course syllabus stipulates that obtaining a minimum mark in this assessment is an essential requirement to pass the course, or if multiple irregularities occur in the assessment activities of the same course, the final grade for the course will be 0. Furthermore, disciplinary proceedings may be initiated against any student who incurs any of these irregularities."
