Teacher-students relationship

The general and relevant information about the subject that details the contents of the teaching guide, such as the dates of continuous assessment and dates and conditions of the work assignments, will be published on the virtual campus (or equivalent site) and may be subject to changes of programming for reasons of adaptation to possible incidents; the virtual campus will always be informed about these changes as it is understood that the virtual campus is the usual mechanism for exchanging information between teacher and student.

Languages

The classes will be done mostly in Catalan or Spanish, although the appearance of terms in English is very common. The written material or support for the subject (notes, bibliography, references, or even statements of practices, exercises, or cases) can be provided either in Catalan or Spanish or in English, and in this case the use of the English language It can be not exceptional but usual. All tests and exams will be written in Catalan or Spanish. The answers to the tests and the exercises can be delivered (and if applicable) indistinctly in Catalan, Spanish, or English.

Lectures, cases, seminars, and sessions for solving exercises

It is these sessions that present the basic contents that students need to enter into the topics that make up the program. At the same time, they will indicate the possible ways to complete or deepen the information received in these sessions.

During the sessions, the case method can also be used as a teaching tool, depending on the degree of participation of the students. These sessions can be complemented by seminars, workshops, and conferences conducted or supervised by the teaching team.

During the course, teamwork and the collaborative exchange of information and tools for solving problems will be encouraged. However, the final learning process must be individual, highlighted by the autonomous activity of each student, who will have to complement and enrich the work initiated in the course's directed sessions. The supervised activity, around regular tutorials and sporadic consultations, carried out during the course, is also an indispensable tool in the acquisition of the knowledge that the subject provides.

Use of Artificial Intelligence (AI)

Restricted use: For this subject, the use of AI is permitted exclusively in support tasks, such as bibliographic or information searches, text correction or translations, and similar. The student must 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 in this assessable activity 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. The use of AI is not permitted in exams.

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.

This subject does not foresee a single evaluation system.

The evaluation of the subject takes into account the following elements:

• Participation, Exercises, and Assignments (35%): Problem-based learning exercises, case discussions, individual or team work, class presentations of results, and other tests that may be determined. Class participation will also be valued.
• Exam (55%)
• Seminars (10%)
