Supervised activities

• Theoretical classes (TE). Each thematic block will begin with one or more face-to-face theory classes where the teacher will explain the key concepts, encourage interaction and discussion of doubts, and give guidelines for monitoring and preparation of complementary autonomous activities.

The support teaching material will contain the essential contents of the theoretical classes, will be available in advance on the Virtual Campus of the subject, and it is recommended that students have it available during the class (computer, tablet or paper format) to facilitate its monitoring.

• Classroom Practices (PAUL). The practical classes will consist of the study of cases in which the concepts introduced in the theoretical classes will be put into practice. Some practical exercises can be individual and others in groups according to the instructions of the teacher. The practices will be evaluated and are mandatory to pass the course.

• Field Practices (PCAMP). There will also be field trips to deepen the knowledge of a topic. These practices will complement the training received, representing an essential aspect of the subject and attendance is mandatory.

Autonomous activities

• Self-study tests with feedback will be provided, using the questionnaire utilities of the Moodle classroom of the virtual campus of the subject, to facilitate the review of the subject synchronized with the teaching of the syllabus.
• Group and individual work . Several practical works will be carried out, some in teams, where it will be tried to apply the knowledge approaching a real situation supervised by the teacher. It will be necessary to solve problems raised in which it will be necessary to consult several sources. The ability to work in groups or individually (as applicable), reasoning and experience of the student in solving problems related to the professional field will be promoted.

• Personal study . An individual effort will be necessary to settle the theoretical classes and the knowledge of the practical part.

Tutorials and personal attention to students

Students are expected to attend classes and consult doubts by actively participating in them. However, you can consult with the professors using the virtual campus and the e-mails indicated in the teaching staff.

The grade will be evaluated taking into account the weights and criteria discussed below in this section, in the event that the criteria for averaging are met. Otherwise, the affected activities will have to be recovered. A minimum of 5 points out of 10 must be obtained to pass the subject.

To evaluate the degree of achievement of the competencies, the following instruments and weights will be used:

Exams

There will be two partial exams of the theoretical part, one for each part of the course. The theory part is worth 40% of the overall mark for the course. The minimum mark for weighting is 3.5 out of 10.

These activities are compulsory. In order to have access to the recovery it is necessary to have done 80% of the evaluable activities, and to have taken the 2 partial exams.

Practical work and field activities

These activities are compulsory, both in terms of attendance and delivery. You must have at least a grade of 3.5 in each of the activities, otherwise it will be necessary to recover the affected activities. Practical activities are worth 40% of the overall mark for the course.

Deliveries after the deadline:

• The late delivery of the activities will imply a penalty of 20% of the obtained mark.

These activities are mandatory. The deliveries of the works are recoverable but not the attendance, which must be at least 75%. Otherwise, these activities may be penalized proportionally to the lack of attendance.

Self-study activities

They will have a weight of 10% provided that at least 80% of these activities have been carried out, otherwise the mark for this part will be a zero. There is no minimum mark for these activities.

Deliveries after the deadline:

• The delivery of these activities late and up to 48 hours after the deadline, will imply a penalty of 20% on the grade obtained.
• The late delivery of activities after this 48-hour margin will mean that they will be counted as not having been completed for the evaluation.

These activities are not mandatory, but they are not recoverable either.

Continuous training and evaluation

It is reminded that the evaluation will be made according to the contents commented by the teacher in class, and that, therefore, attendance in person is highly recommended since not all the information will be accessible on the virtual campus.

In addition, during the course there will be a continuous assessment and it will be necessary to have participated in 80% of these assessment activities for them to be weighted at 10%, otherwise the mark for this part will be a zero. Standard teaching innovation tools will be used to control class participation. There is no minimum mark for these activities.

These activities are not mandatory, but they are not recoverable either.

Summary of criteria and weights for the evaluation of the subject

NA: Not applicable

1: Compulsory participation implies that non-participation will have to be recovered in order to be weighted, and if it is not done, it will not be possible to average, and therefore the subject will not be approved either. Voluntary participation implies that it is not compulsory but that it cannot be recovered later.

2: Value of minimum participation to weight, otherwise the activities will count as 0.

3: Minimum mark of 10 points to be weighted with the rest, if the minimum is not reached, the specific activity will have to be recovered, regardless of the rest of the marks of the same type

4: When the activity is recoverable, it must be recovered if the minimum mark is not obtained. In case of non-recoverable activity, the mark cannot be recovered, and therefore it will be weighted to the final mark, even if it is 0 or less than any threshold.

5: Weight value if the previous criteria are met

*: For participations of less than 75%, practical activities may be penalized in proportion to the lack of attendance

Single assessment

This course does not include a single assessment system.

Use of Artificial Intelligence (AI)

In this course, the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies is permitted as an integral part of coursework, provided that the final submission demonstrates a substantial contribution from the student in terms of analysis and critical reflection. Students must clearly identify which parts of their work have been generated using AI, specify the tools employed, and include a critical reflection on how these tools have influenced both the process and the final outcome of the assignment. Failure to disclose the use of AI will be regarded as a breach of academic integrity and may result in a penalty to the assessment grade or, in serious cases, more severe disciplinary sanctions.

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 authorised in the course guide) that may lead to a significant alteration of the assessment result will result in that assessment being awarded a mark of 0 (Fail). Where the course guide establishes that obtaining a minimum mark in that assessment activity is an essential requirement to pass the course, or where multiple irregularities are committed in the assessment activities of the same course, the final grade for the course will be 0 (Fail). In addition, disciplinary proceedings may be initiated against any student who commits any of these irregularities.
