The academic activities are divided into Lectures (large group) and Practice Sessions (small groups). 1. Master Lessons (Large Groups), in which the general outlines of the subject matter of the corresponding topic will be presented. 2. Practical Sessions (Small Groups), in which specific activities will be developed in order to offer a practical vision of the content of the topics. The activities to be developed will consist of the resolution of practical exercises, as well as, if necessary, other control activities such as the reading of bibliography or relevant sentences and test or surprise questions to check the level of knowledge on the topics. These activities will be duly announced in Aula Global. Tutorials will be held at the time and under the conditions determined by the professor in Aula Global. Indications on the use of Artificial Intelligence tools In this course, students should not use artificial intelligence tools to carry out the work or exercises proposed by the faculty.
