Learning activities and methodology
The methodology to be developed during the development of the course is fundamentally based on the teacher's explanation of the subject corresponding to the program. However, the teacher will encourage student participation, recommending the reading of certain materials that serve for a better understanding of the explanation or the preparation of a next topic. In relation to the possible training activities, it is considered essential that the student can develop arguments and take a position on certain problems that the subject presents. Hence, the development of the tests that will define the continuous evaluation. At same given that the coordinator of the subject is always available to the students, it does not seem necessary to establish a fixed regime of tutorials.Use of Artificial Intelligence tools selectively allowed in this subject. The faculty may indicate a list of works and exercises that the student can perform using AI tools, specifying how they should be used, and how the student should describe the use made of them. If the use of AI by the student gives rise to academic fraud by falsifying the results of an exam or work required to accredit academic performance, the provisions of the Regulation of the University Carlos III of Madrid of partial development of the Law 3/2022, of February 24th, of University Coexistence will be applied.
