Teaching will be based on theory lectures with frequent use of the computer, complemented by problem sets with intensive use of the computer and laboratory practices where the contents learned will be applied to the analysis and visualization of data .

Autonomous activities will be carried out that will include the development of simple computer programs.
 

The completion of laboratory practices is mandatory, and it is necessary to pass the labs separately.

To pass the subject, a minimum grade of 4 is required in the synthesis test. This can be obtained either:

a) When the average of the partial synthesis tests reaches 4, and the second of the partial tests does not have a grade lower than 2.

b) When the recovery synthesis test reaches the minimum of 4.

To take the recovery synthesis test, it is necessary to have previously taken at least one of the partial synthesis tests, and have passed the labs.

“Matricula d’honor” will be awarded preferentially according to the results of the partial synthesis tests, over those of the recovery test. It will be possible to go to the recovery synthesis test to improve the grade, but in case of obtaining a grade lower than the average of the partial tests, the final synthesis grade will be the mean between the average of the partials and the final grade of the recovery.

Notwithstanding other disciplinary measures deemed appropriate, and in accordance with the academic regulations in force, assessment activities will receive a zero whenever a student commits academic irregularities that may alter such assessment. Assessment activities graded in this way and by this procedure will not be re-assessable. If passing the assessment activity or activities in question is required to pass the subject, the awarding of a zero for disciplinary measures will also entail a direct fail for the subject, with no opportunity to re-assess this in the same academic year. Irregularities contemplated in this procedure include, among others:

- the total or partial copy of a practical exercise, report, or any other evaluation activity;

- allowing others to copy;

- presenting group work that has not been done entirely by the members of the group;

- presenting any materials prepared by a third party as one's own work, even if these materials are translations or adaptations, including work that is not original or exclusively that of the student;

- having communication devices (such as mobile phones, smart watches, etc.) accessible during theoretical-practical assessment tests (individual exams)

- talking to classmates during individual theoretical and practical assessment tests (exams)

- copying or attempting to copy from other students during theoretical and practical assessment tests (exams)

- using or attempting to use writings related to the subject during the theoretical and practical assessment tests (exams) when they are not explicitly permitted.

In future editions of this subject, the student who has committed irregularities in an assessment activity, any of the assessment activities carried out will not be validated.

In summary: copy, allowing other to copy or plagiarize (or attempt) in any of the assessment activities is equivalent to a fail for the subject, not compensable and without validation of parts of the subject in subsequent courses.

In case of failing the subject due to having committed any of these irregularities in an assessment activity, the final grade will be the lower value between 3.0 and the average of the individual theoretical-practical tests (and therefore it will not be possible to pass the subject by compensation).

In this subject, the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies is not allowed in any of its activities subject to evaluation. Any work that includes fragments generated with AI will be considered a lack of academic honesty and may lead to a partial or total penalty in the grade of the activity, or greater sanctions in serious cases.

To attend any exam it will be necessary to identify yourself with DNI.

This subject does not contemplate the single evaluation system.
