The acquisition of knowledge will be done through various methodological procedures that include different types of activities, grouped mainly in lectures and practices in radio and television laboratories, and also with analysis works.

In the theoretical sessions, the contents of the program will be presented, thus providing the necessary elements to carry out the practical exercises in the laboratories. As for the practices, they will serve to apply to real cases what has been learned in the theoretical sessions. The analysis works will encourage critical reflection on examples and current news programs related to the contents of the course.

This course uses innovative teaching methodologies in theoretical and practical sessions such as ABR, APS and gamification, among others.

A detailed schedule outlining the content of each session will be presented on the first day of the course and will be availableon the course’s Virtual Campus, where students will find the various teaching materials deemed appropriate by the instructors and necessary information for effective course monitoring.Should the teachingmodality change for reasons of force majeureaccording to the competent authorities, the teachingstaff will informstudents of any modifications to the course schedule and teaching methodologies.

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.

The acquisition of skills and knowledges through the course will be assesed through different activities:

- Theoretical exam (35% of the final grade).

- Laboratory practices (50% of the final grade).

- Analytical works (10% of the final grade).

-Assistance and Participation in clas (5% of the final grade).

The final grade will be the sum of the score obtained. It is essential to complete the four parts corresponding to the evaluation tests in order to pass the course.

The weighting of the four evaluable parts will be made, even if one of them is failed. But t the weighting will not be done if two or more parts are failed.

The grading system for this course corresponds to continuous assessment and does not provide for the single assessment system.

In relation to attendance and participation in class, the student must attend a minimum of 80% of their corresponding evaluation activities in order to continue the continuous assessment. Without this requirement, the student will not be able to be evaluated in any of the four parts that make up the evaluation of this course.

Attendance at laboratory practices is mandatory. Unexcused absence from these sessions will result in a zero for the specific activities.

OPTIONAL REVALUATION PROCESS:

Students will be entitled to make up the course if the weight of all the activities has been evaluated and is equivalent to a minimum of 2/3 of the total grade of the course.

Only suspended laboratory practices and the theoretical exam can be made up, provided that the student has obtained a minimum of activities that equals two-thirds of the total grading.

Analytical works are not recoverable and therefore cannot be revaluated.

On the other hand, students who have obtained a minimum grade of 8 in the theoretical exam may reapply for this activity in order to raise their grade.

The grade obtained in the activitiesthat are revaluated will be the final grade for these activities.

The course will obtain the grade of “Not evaluable” when the student has not carried out or completed the different evaluative activities.

This course does not provide for a single-assessment system.

Plagiarism:

In the event that the student performs any irregularity that may lead to a significant variation of an evaluation act, this evaluation act will be graded with 0, regardless of the disciplinary process that could be instructed. In the event, that several irregularities occur in the evaluation acts of the same subject, the final grade for this subject will be 0.

AI:

For this course, the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies is allowed exclusively in the tasks and activities that the faculty will determine in each case and corresponding sessions. Students must clearly identify any parts generated with these technologies, specify the tools used, and include a critical reflection on how AI has influenced the process and final outcome of the assignment. Failure to disclose the use of AI in this assessed activity will be considered a breach of academic integrity and may result in a partial or total penalty to the assignment grade, or more serious sanctions in severe cases.

Irregularities:

The performance of any irregularity in an evaluation act (academic fraud, plagiarism or improper use of AI, unless this use is expressly authorized by the teaching guide), which may lead to a significant variation in the grade, assumes that this act will be graded with a 0. In the event that the teaching guide foresees that in order to pass the subject it is an essential requirement to have obtained a minimum grade in this evaluation act or that there are several irregularities in the evaluation acts of the same subject, the final grade of this subject is 0. Apart from this, a disciplinary process may be instructed to the student that incurs any of these irregularities.
