Learning activities and methodology

Throughout the fourteen weeks of class, six evaluable exercises will be proposed that students must solve to delve into the content taught during the face-to-face sessions. Students will have 7 days to solve the exercises. These will be published in Aula Global immediately after the delivery of the following face-to-face sessions: - Exercise 1: session 2 - Exercise 2: session 4 - Exercise 3: session 7 - Exercise 4: session 9 - Exercise 5: session 10 - Exercise 6: session 13 Students must attend two laboratory sessions, obtain the experimental data and complete the corresponding scripts in small groups. The laboratory sessions will have to arrive within the class schedule and on the following dates - Session 11 ¿ April 18 - Session 12 - April 25 There will be three multiple choice questionnaires during the classes. The questionnaires will be face-to-face, in the classroom, at the beginning of the session: The dates and contents of the questionnaires will be: - Test 1: session 6, March 7 (items 1-5) - Test 2: April 10 (issues 6-9) - Test 3: May 16 (items 10-16) Students may request by email all those tutorials (individual or in small groups) that they believe are necessary to properly assimilate the concepts taught in class.

Assessment System

-10% laboratory practices (with resolution in small groups of the questions raised in the scripts).
- 20% 6 evaluable exercises (to be solved individually or in pairs). There will be 2 exercises per thematic block.
- 30% 3 multiple choice questionnaires carried out during the course and referring to three different thematic blocks.
- 40% final exam
Those students with more than 6.5  in one of the three blocks (60% mark of the questionnaire + 40% mark of the 2 exercises of the block) may choose to release that part of the final exam, keeping that grade for also 1/3 of the final evaluation.

Those students who, with the continuous assessment grade and two RELEASE parts of the final exam with a good grade and counting the other as 0 in the corresponding third of the final exam, achieve a pass can also release the subject.

% end-of-term-examination 40
% of continuous assessment (assigments, laboratory, practicals...) 60
