The teaching methodology of the subject focuses on project-based learning. To achieve this goal, the subject will be structured in theory classes and supervised projects aimed at consolidating the contents of the subject.
This approach requires a special involvement of students both in the development of face-to-face sessions and in the course's directed activites. Teamwork and collaborative exchange will be encouraged. However, the final learning process must be individual, highlighted by the autonomous activity of each student, who will have to complement and enrich the work initiated in the course's directed sessions. The supervised activity, around regular tutorials and sporadic consultations carried out during the course, is also an indispensable tool in acquiring the knowledge that the subject provides.
Assessment
Continuous assessment activities
| Title | Weight | Hours | ECTS | Learning outcomes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Project 1. HTML, CSS and JS | 35% | 0 | 0 | CM27 |
| Project 2. PHP and MySQL | 45% | 0 | 0 | CM27 |
| Project 3. CMS | 20% | 0 | 0 | CM27 |
\"This subject/module does not offer the option for comprehensive evaluation.\"
The final qualification of the subject will be obtained based on the valuations of the different evidences, taking into account that each one of the parts has a different specific weight:
35% (project1) + 45% (project2) + 20% (project3)
The grade of the subject will be calculated from this weighted sum.
A student who performs at least one of the components of the continuous evaluation can no longer be considered as NOT Evaluable.
Calendar of evaluation activities
The dates of the evaluation activities (exercises, assignments ...) will be announced well in advance during the semester.
Irregularities in evaluation activities
Despite other disciplinary measures deemed appropriate, and in accordance with current academic regulations, \"whenever a student makes any irregularity that could lead to a significant variation in the grade of an evaluation activity, it will be graded with a 0, regardless of the disciplinary process that can be instructed. In case of occurrence of various irregularities in the evaluation of the same subject, the final grade of this subject will be 0\". Section 10 of Article 116. Results of the evaluation. (UAB Academic Regulations).
