- Theory classes:

Systematic explanation of the subject topics, giving relevance to the most important concepts. The student acquires the basic scientific knowledge of the subject in theory classes, which will be complemented by self-study of the themes of the subject program.

- Laboratory practices:

Practical sessions for the observation and performance of procedures, the practical learning of physiological techniques and their medical application. Group work and active learning are promoted.

- Case-based learning:

Presentation, discussion and exposition of cases and problems of relevance for learning the subject. The knowledge acquired in theory classes, practices and personal study is applied to the resolution of practical cases about real situations and scenarios. Active learning and group work, as well as oral presentation and defense of the results are promoted.

- Supervised teaching:

Availability of supervised teaching, individuals and/or in groups, for helping in the autonomous study of human nutrition concepts and their application for the resolution of cases.

Use of AI: In this subject, the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies is allowed as an integral part of the development of the work, provided that the final result reflects a significant contribution of the student in the analysis and personal reflection. The student must clearly identify which parts have been 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. The lack of transparency in the use of AI will be considered a lack of academic honesty and maylead to a penalty in the grade of the activity, or greater sanctions in serious cases.

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 the competences will be evaluated, including the learning of the nutrition of the human organism, the training to distinguish between the normality and the dysfunction, and the capacity of integration of theoretical and practical concepts.

1. Evaluation model:

- The theoretical and practical (laboratory and case practices) syllabus will be assessed.

- To pass the subject, it is necessary to pass the two Blocks with a minimum mark of 5.0 in each Block in the same academic year:

Bloc 1: A. Basic concepts of nutrition. B. Nutrition in special physiological situations. The theory of these two sections and the case practice-1 are included.

Bloc 2: C. Nutritional aspects of prevalent diseases. D. Nutrition and public health. The theory of these two sections and the case practice-1 and the laboratory practice are included.

2. Continuous evaluation

- The continuous evaluation will comprise:

2.1. Two partial exams (one for each Block) with multiple-choice questions to evaluate the theoretical concepts, as well as multiple-choice questions and/or short written questions of the concepts learned and trained in the corresponding practices, and integrated with the theory. The mark of each partial exam will be 40% of the overall final grade.

2.2. Tests throughout the course on the knowledge obtained in the laboratory (PLAB) and the case-based study (PAUL) practices: on-site tests and/or questionnaires conducted on the Moodle application. The mark of this set of tests will be 20% of the final grade (8% the PLAB and 6% each PAUL)..

TO PASS THE SUBJECT through continuous evaluation, it is necessary to pass the two partial exams with a minimum of 5.0 in each one, and the overall final grade also must be of 5.0 (40% partial exam 1 + 40% partial exam 2 + 20% Teststhroughout thecourse about practices).

If one exam is passed and the other one is suspended, the mean will NOT be taken and the subject will be suspended.

If the two exams are passed but the final mark obtained including the practice grade is lower than 5.0, the subject will be suspended and the entire subject will have to be recovered.

- Final exam of recovery

In case of not passing the continuous evaluation, a final examination for recovery will be carried out, in which the student will have to attend to the Blocks not passed in the partial exams of the same academic year.

The final exam will consist in tests of multiple-choice questions from each Block and about the knowledge of theory and the corresponding practices.

TO PASS THE SUBJECT, it is necessary to pass the two Blocks with a minimum of 5.0 each one. In this case, the overall final grade will be the mean between the marks obtained in each passed Block (50% Blokc 1 and 50% Block 2).

In case of not passing one of the two Blocks, the mean will not be taken, and the maximal mark obtained will be 4.8.

- A student who does not perform any evaluable task will be considered as \"Not Evaluable\".

- Exams and marks reviewing procedure

Students may submit claims to the statement of the exam questions during the 24 hours following the completion of the examination. The revision will be carried out in the schedule that will be properly announced in Moodle application.

A reviewing period for marks will also be scheduled.

- Irregularities in Assessment Activities

Any irregularity committed during an assessment activity (including academic fraud, plagiarism, or the improper use of AI, unless such use is expressly authorized in the course guide) that may lead to a significant alteration of the grade will result in a grade of 0 for that assessment activity.

If the course guide establishes that obtaining a minimum grade in that assessment activity is an essential requirement for passing the course, or if multiple irregularities are committed in the assessment activities of the same course, the final grade for the course will be 0.

In addition, and irrespective of the above, disciplinary proceedings may be initiated against any student who commits any of these irregularities.

3. Single evaluation

This course does not provide for a single assessment system.
