This subject has a balance between the theoretical part and the practical part. It is not a totally ABP subject matter since the theoretical concepts are important, and the practical part will be carried out with tutorial sessions, delivery sessions and evaluation of the planetary problems and autonomous work on the part of the student.

• Theory classes: These are master classes where the theoretical concepts of the subject are introduced. Although theory classes, a good part of the session (approximately half) will be used to solve in a group simple problems raised by the teacher.
• Seminars: These are classes where practical cases will be considered that will require the application of the concepts explained in the theory classes. At the end of the class of seminars there will be a problem that the student will have to solve autonomously and that he will deliver voluntarily at the beginning of the next session of seminars.
• Laboratories: These are sessions in which the teacher will conduct tutorials with the students in order to guide their work while developing the solution to practice a real problem of a certain complexity. Before these sessions, the student will have to perform a series of tasks autonomously that will be shown at the beginning of the laboratory session. Teachers will also be able to introduce and work on concepts associated with carrying out the practices, such as explaining computer tools, exercises with these tools, etc.

Annotation: within the schedule set by the centre or degree programme, 15 minutes of one class will be reserved for students to evaluate their lecturers and their courses or modules through questionnaires.

This subject does not have a single assessment system.

The final grade for the subject is given by the formula: Grade = 0.55*NTeo + 0.45*NLab,

NTeo is the Theory grade, and NLab is the laboratory grade. Each of the NTeo and NLab grades must be greater than 5, otherwise the final grade for the subject will be the minimum value of these two. The Grade value will only be calculated if NTeo and NLab are both greater than 5. If this is not the case, the Grade value will be the minimum value of NTeo and NLab.

The NTeo grade is

NTeo = 0.6*NTeo1 + 0.4*NTeo2

where NTeo1 and NTeo2 are two assessment activities that will be carried out throughout the course during theory session times. The NTeo value will only be calculated if NTeo1 and NTeo2 are both greater than 5. If this is not the case, the NTeo value is considered to be the minimum value of NTeo1 and NTeo2. If NTeo is not greater than 5 after taking the two NTeo1 and NTeo2 tests, the student may re-evaluate NTeo1 and/or NTeo2 during the final assessment tests. In the final assessment tests, each of the NTeo1 and NTeo2 grades will be saturated at a value of 6.

A period will be given at the same time as each assessment is published to review the grade. The grade review periods will be scrupulously respected, that is, no grade will be reviewed outside of this grade review period.

The NLab grade will be a weighted average of the different NLab(i) laboratory sessions.

NLab = 0.75*NEntr1 + 0.25* NEntr2

where NEntr(i) is the individual grade for each of the two practical assignments (predictably in laboratory sessions 4 and 6 of the course, respectively). The calculation of these grades is specified in the statement of each practice (which will be published in the Moodle classrooms)

• There is no second call for the NLab grade or for any of the NLab(i) grades. The NLab value will only be calculated if each and every one of NLab(i) is equal to or greater than 0.1. Otherwise, NLab will be the minimum value among all NLab(i) values.
• The order of assignment to the practical groups will be made according to the grade in the academic record.
• NO grades from previous years will be validated.
• A student will obtain a \"Not Assessable\" as the final grade for the subject only if they do not obtain any grade in any of the variables that appear in the previous mathematical formulas. If a student submits any work to be evaluated or carries out any of the evaluation activities that are contemplated in the previous formulas, they will no longer be able to obtain a \"Not Assessable\".
• To obtain an Honors Degree, it is necessary, as a mandatory requirement, to obtain a final grade of Excellent.
• The dates of continuous evaluation and submission of work will be published on the virtual campus (CV) or Moodle classrooms (MO) and may be subject to programming changes for reasons of adaptation to possible incidents. The CV/MO will always be informed of these changes since it is understood that the CV/MO is the usual mechanism for exchanging information between professors and students.

Without prejudice to other disciplinary measures deemed appropriate, and in accordance with current academic regulations, irregularities committed by a student that may lead to a variation in the grade will be graded with a zero (0). For example, plagiarizing, copying, allowing copying, ..., an assessment activity, will imply the suspension of this assessment activity with a zero (0). Assessment activities graded in this way and by this procedure will not be recoverable. If it is necessary to pass any of these assessment activities to pass the subject, this subject will be directly failed with a grade of zero (0), with no opportunity to recover it in the same course. These irregularities include, among others:

• the total or partial copying of a practice, report, or any other assessment activity;
• allowing copying;
• presenting a group work not done in its entirety by the membersof the group (applied to all members, not just those who have not worked);
• present as their own materials prepared by a third party, even if they are translations or adaptations, and in general works with non-original and exclusive elements of the student;
• have communication devices (such as mobile phones, smart watches, camera pens, etc.) accessible during individual theoretical-practical evaluation tests (exams);
• talk to classmates during individual theoretical-practical evaluation tests (exams);
• copy or attempt to copy other students during theoretical-practical evaluation tests (exams);
• use or attempt to use writings related to the subject during the theoretical-practical evaluation tests (exams), when these have not been explicitly permitted;
• use Artificial Intelligence tools (chatbots or LLMs like ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude and similar) to carry out any task.

In this subject, the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies is not allowed in any of its phases. Any work that includes fragments generated with AI 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.

A student who has committed irregularities in an assessment act will not be validated for any of the assessment activities carried out. In summary: copying, allowing copying or plagiarism (or the attempt to do so) in any of the assessment activities is equivalent to a FAIL, non-compensable and without validation of parts of the subject in subsequent years.
