Theory: Theoretical classes will be taught with face-to-face methodology - master classes - although the interaction and participation of the students will be made possible and stimulated to the maximum. The classes will be supported by audiovisual media. The material used in class by the teacher will be available on the Virtual Campus of the subject; students are recommended to print it and take it to class, to use it as a support when it comes to taking notes. The student will be encouraged to deepen into the knowledge acquired in class using the recommended bibliography and simulation software.

specialized seminars: Given the character and orientation of the subject, classes of problems will play a key role in its development and in the learning of the subject. Based on specific practical problems or reading the results of a scientific article, students will be able to apply the knowledge acquired in theory classes and personal study.

Specialized seminars will introduce the dynamic methodology and selected sets of practical cases that the student will have to solve through the statistical software of reference, in order to achieve the objectives pursued by the subject.

Classes of laboratory practices: Practical classes are a fundamental point for the correct fulfillment of the objectives of the subject. During them the student will have to solve practical cases, previously selected and discussed, through statistical software. The practices will be carried out individually or in small groups in computer rooms.

This subject contemplates two types of assessment: a general, valid for all students and second one, only valid for students with a second or later enrollment.

Specifically:

MODALITY 1: available for all students.

The competences of the subject will be assessed with multiple choice exams (Theory: Tests T1 and T2, 60% of the mark; Practices: P1 and P2 tests, 20% of the mark), live resolution of problems during some Workshops (S, 10%) and practical work (TP, 10% of the note), according to the following scheme:

Attendance at practical sessions as well as at workshops is mandatory. The minimum global qualification required to pass the subject is 5 points.

MODALITY 2: only available to students with a second or later enrollment.

The competences of the subject will be evaluated with multiple choice exams with (THEORY: T1 and T2 tests), according to the following scheme:

The minimum global qualification required to pass the subject is 5 points. The student at second time of enrollement can choose either modality 1 or modality 2 of evaluation according to what they deems appropriate.

GENERAL CONSIDERATIONS:

- There will be a final examination for those students who have not approved the subject through modality 1 or 2. In order to participate in this exam 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. The final exam will include the full year subject and the minimum mark required to pass will be 5 points. At the time the student presents for this exam, it will be considered that the final grade of the subject will be the one that he obtains in this test, regardless of whether he has previously followed modalities 1 or 2 of evaluation.

- Single assessment: Students who request it, following the instructions of the University and the Faculty of Medicine, will have the possibility of being evaluated in a single test. The test will be at the end of the academic year and will include all the syllabus taught throughout the course, both theory and practice, and the minimum grade necessary to pass will be 5 points. The moment students request this kind of examination, it will be considered that the final grade of the subject will be the one obtained in this test. Recovery: The same recovery system will be applied as for thecontinuous evaluation

- It will be considered that a student will obtain the \"Non-Appraising\" qualification if it is solely presented at one of the first two partial tests (T1 or P1) and is not presented to the final exam.

IMPORTANT: The commission of any irregularity in an assessment (academic fraud, plagiarism, or improper use of AI, unless such use is expressly authorized in the course syllabus), which could lead to a significant change in the grade, will result in that attempt being graded with a 0. If the course syllabus stipulates that obtaining a minimum score on this assessment is a mandatory requirement to pass the course, or if multiple irregularities occur in the assessments for the same course, the final grade for that course will be 0. In addition, disciplinary proceedings may be initiated against any student who commits any of these irregularities.

GENERAL NOTE REGARDING THE USE OF AI:

In this course, the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies is permitted as an integral part of the work, provided that the final result reflects a significant contribution from the student in the analysis and personal reflection. The student must clearly identify which parts were 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 activity. A lack of transparency regarding the use of AI will be considered academic dishonesty and may result in a penalty to the activity's grade, or more severe sanctions in more serious cases.
