in which previously elaborated practical cases are analysed and resolved with the teachers' direction. On specific occasions, the cases will be elaborated in class.

2.1. The preparation of documents: those required for seminars. They can be in relation to practical cases proposed in advanceor that have to be created by the students. A partial exam is part of the autonomous activity, whose specific form is determined by the teachers of each group.
2.2. Search of bibliography and instrumental jurisprudence for the resolution of the practical cases and the preparation of the exam.
2.3. Comprehensive reading of legal texts: The texts can be sentences, journal articles, monographs. The faculty of each group will determine the type of text.
