The center in the teaching-learning process is the student; the methodology is planned from this view:

-Presentation of the main contents by the lecturer. It is done with the whole group class and allows the presentation of the main content through an open participation of students. The active participation of students will be encouraged, as a way of sharing the learnings that are being achieved

-Spaces of work in small groups (25 students) , supervised by teachers. The activities will be a way to practice the contents worked in the large group. The activities will be document analysis, data interpretation and reporting, case resolution and training tools

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.

CONTINUOUS ASSESSMENT

Continuous assessment of the course will take place throughout the academic year through the activities described below. The assessment activities are organized into blocks, which are linked to the learning activities.

BLOCK 1

-Individual case-based assessment. 50% of the final grade.

• Date: 26/10/2026.
• Resit: 16/11/2026.

BLOCK 2

-Practical activity on the pedagogy profession. 25% of the final grade.

• Date: 21/12/2026.
• Resit: To be determined by professors

-Individual theoretical assessment. 25% of the final grade.

• Date: 11/01/2027.
• Resit: 25/01/2027.

The assessment and resit activities will take place on the indicated dates from 9:30 a.m. to 12:30 a.m.

To pass the course, students must obtain a minimum grade of 5 in each of the two assessment blocks.

Students who have participated appropriately throughout the course but do not pass Block 1 may be eligible to take a resit assessment.

The grades for the activities in Block 2 may compensate for one another, provided that no grade is below 4. For example, if a student obtains a 4 and a 6 in the two Block 2 activities, the block may be considered passed. Students will receive feedback on the practical activity in Block 2 and, if the learning outcomes achieved are considered insufficient, the teaching staff will indicate whether it can be improved within a specified period of time.

Group assignments and practical activities will be presented in class, and these presentations will also be assessed.

Students who do not submit all the required assessment evidence (all the assessment activities listed above) will receive a grade of "Not Assessable."

A comprehensive assessment is available for students enrolling in the course for a second time.

SINGLE ASSESSMENT

Individual theoretical and practical assessment, consisting of a written and an oral examination.

• Weighting of the final grade: written examination 50%, oral examination 50%.
• Resit: written examination 50%, oral examination 50%.

The individual assessment will take place on 11 January 2027, from 9:30 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. The resit assessment will be held on 25 January 2027 at the same time.

The review of the final grade and the resit procedure will follow the same process as for continuous assessment.

GENERAL CONSIDERATIONS

Plagiarism is grounds for failing the course.

To successfully complete the course, students are recommended to attend at least 80% of classes and seminars.

Grades will be returned within a maximum period of 20 working days according to the academic calendar.

To pass this course, students must demonstrate an attitude consistent with the teaching profession. They must also demonstrate good general communication skills, both oral and written, as well as a good command of the language(s) of instruction specified in the course guide. Therefore, all activities (individual and group) will be assessed for linguistic accuracy, writing quality, and formal presentation. Students must be able to express themselves fluently and accurately and demonstrate a high level of comprehension of academic texts. An activity may be returned without assessment or failed if the instructor considers that these requirements have not been met.

This course incorporates a gender perspective and promotes inclusion through the use of non-sexist language in teaching materials and communications, as well as a balanced bibliography that highlights the contributions of both female and male authors. Active participation by all students is encouraged in safe learning environments that promote respect, non-discrimination, and diversity of perspectives. Appropriate accommodations will also be provided to support students who require them. In addition, the course develops the UAB's generic competencies related to gender, such as critical thinking and commitment to equality, in order to ensure an inclusive learning environment free from stereotypes.

The use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies is permitted in this course as an integral part of the development of assignments, provided that the final outcome reflects a significant contribution from the student in terms of analysis and personal reflection. Students must clearly identify which parts have been generated using AI, specify the tools used, and include a critical reflection on how these tools have influenced both the process and the final outcome of the activity. Failure to disclose the use of AI will be considered a breach of academic integrity and may result in a penalty in the activity grade or a failing grade in serious cases. Specific verification procedures may be carried out to ensure authorship and the acquisition of competencies in cases of suspected academic misconduct.
