Teaching will be offered on campus or in an on-campus and remote hybrid format depending on the number of students per group and the size of the rooms at 50% capacity.
The subject consists of a theoretical part, practical part, and part of personal work of the student.
The subject consists of 6 ECTS credits. It is taught in a total of 50 classroom-based hours per student that are distributed according to the table below. Classroom hours are indicated per student.
The total dedication of the student is 150 hours total, having a non-attendance of 100 hours.
Supervised Practices and Activities (seminars) will be carried out online and synchronously way (in the interaction space to be communicated). Therefore, there will be no face-to-face in the hours of supervised Practices and Activities. If any of the sessions are changed to synchronous way, it will be communicated within the Virtual Campus.
TE | Theory | 26 h | Theoretical classes |
PE | Problems | 12 h | Problem solving and discussion by students on issues and cases |
PL | Practices | 8 h | Resolution of group cases, preparation, presentation and discussion of the practices |
AS | Supervised activities | 4 h | Presentation and discussion of final works. |
Theory
Inthe theory sessions, the teaching staff will provide information on the basic concepts and techniques of the subject, with indications of how to expand and organize their learning.
During these sessions, theactive participation of the students will be encouraged by proposing examples or alternatives to the solutions presented, as well as gathering evidence in relation to the practical cases exposed during the session to monitor the student's learning. Among the transversal competences will be those related to personal work habits and thinking habits.
Problems
Problem sessions will be raised and discussed specific questions related to the theoretical part. The session will be resolved, put into common, and discussion of questions or exercises.
In this session, a very active participation of the students is expected. Generally, each session will be initiated by a student presenting their vision on the issues, which will be discussed later by the rest of the students with the help of the teacher. This presentation on the part of the student will constitute the evidence of main evaluation on the part of problems.
In the sessions of problems, in addition to the specific competences of the subject, the transversal competences related to personal work habits and thinking habits will be worked on.
Practices
The practical sessions will be devoted to the resolution of cases in group: during the session, cases and practical problems that students will have to consider and solve in a group will be considered. At the beginning of the course, the calendar of the sessions will be made public. The student will put into practice the knowledge that he is acquiring in the subject, and the transversal competences related to the team work.
Supervised activities
During the course the students will do a work in groups of 3 or 4 students. The work will be on extensions of the syllabus, each group will choose a topic of those proposed by theteaching team.
The work will be the preparation of a small memory following a script agreed and approved by the teaching team.
At the end of the course, each group will present a presentation of theirwork where there will bea debate with all the students.
At the beginning of the course, the calendar of thesessions will be made public. The student will put into practice the knowledge that is being acquired in the subject,
and the transversal competences related to communication and teamwork.

The proposed evaluation activities may undergo some changes according to the restrictions imposed by the health authorities on on-campus courses.
Continuous-assessment dates, delivery of problems, practices or work will be published on Campus Virtual (https://cv.uab.cat) and on the presentation slides, specific programming may change when necessary. Any such modification will always be communicated to students through Campus Virtual, which is the usual communication platform between lecturers and students.
a) Process and evaluation activities programmed
The assessment will be continuous and formative based on the development of the following evaluation activities:
The PPV will contain questions of the theory classes and a problem or exercise related to the part of problems that will be taken into account for the qualification of the part of problems.
Each evaluation activity will have a final grade that will be obtained if the following requirements are met:
Test | Participation | Minimum rating | Weighting |
Partial tests / Recovery tests
|
Individual | 4 | 40% |
Problems | Individual | 4 | 30% |
Practices | Group | 4 | 20% |
Seminar (Final work) | Group | 5 | 10% |
b) Programming of evaluation activities
The scheduling of the assessment activities will be given on the first day of the subject and will be made public through the Virtual Campusand on the website of the School of Engineering, in the exam section.
c) Recovery process
Each part of the partial tests, problems and practices will have to be exceeded with a score of 4 or more and the final work with a score of 5 to be able to calculate the final mark of the subject. Otherwise, the student will have to perform the corresponding recovery tests:
- Proof of recovery of partial exams: of individual knowledge. Only students that have not obtained the minimum mark in one of the partial exams or in the two partial examinations will be presented to this test. The partial will be recovered that does not reach the minimum mark; If both are partial will be presented to the examination of recovery of both partial.
- Problem recovery test: of individual knowledge. The students who do not obtain the minimum mark in the final note of problems will be presented to the examination of recovery of this part.
- Test of recovery of the final work: of individual knowledge. The students who do not obtain the minimum mark of the final work will do an individual work of the subject proposed by the teaching staff, as a recovery of this part.
The practical part of the subject is not recoverable. Students who do not obtain the minimum mark in this part will besuspended the subject.
The recovery test will also apply the minimum required for each of the parts to which the student must present. Also, within this test, each part must be exceeded with a mark greater than or equal to 4 to be able to ponder the final grade of the subject.
To pass the subject it is necessary that the evaluation of each one of the parts exceeds the minimum required and that the total evaluation exceeds the 5 points.
Ifyou do not pass the subject for some of the two previous conditions, the numerical note of the file will be the lowest value between 4,5 and the weighted average of the notes.
Therefore, aftercompleting the recovery test, if the calculation of the final mark of the subject is equal to or greater than 5, but the minimum required in one of the assessment activities has not been
obtained, the numerical note of The file will be the lowest value between 4,5 and the weighted average of the notes.
d) Procedure for the review of qualifications
For each assessment activity, a place, date and time of review will be indicated allowing students to review the activity with the lecturer. In this context, students may discuss the activity grade awarded by the lecturers responsible for the subject.
If students do not take part in this review, no further opportunity will be made available.
e) Special qualifications
Students who have to submit to the recovery test (to suspend one of the two partial tests or both or problems), do not submit to the recovery, they will have a "Non-Valuable" ratingon their file.
In order to pass the course with honours, the final grade must be a 9.0 or higher. Because the numberof students with this distinction cannot exceed 5% of the number of students enrolled in the course, this distinction will be awarded to whoever has the highest final grade.
f) Irregularities by the student, copy and plagiarism
Without prejudice to other disciplinary measures deemed appropriate, and in accordance with current academic regulations, irregularities committed by a student that may lead to a grade variation in an evaluable activity will be graded zero (0).
Evaluation activities qualified in this way and by this procedure willnot be recoverable. If it is necessary to pass any of these evaluation activities to pass the subject, this subject will be suspended directly, with no opportunity to recover it in the same course.
These irregularities include, among others:
- the total or partial copy of a practice, report, or any other evaluation activity;
- let copy;
- present a group work not done entirely by the members of the group (applied to all members, not only to those who have not worked);
- unauthorized use of AI (eg Copilot, ChatGPT or equivalent) to solve exercises, practices and/or any other evaluable activity;
- Submit as your own materials prepared by a third party, even if they are translations or adaptations, and in general works with non-original and exclusive elements of the student;
- have communication devices (such as mobile phones, smartwatches, camera pens, etc.) accessible during individual theoretical-practical assessment tests (exams);
- talk with classmates during the individual theoretical-practical evaluation tests (exams);
- copy or try to copy other students during the theoretical and practical evaluation tests (exams);
- Use or attempt to use writings related to the subject during the theoretical-practical evaluation tests (exams), when these have not been explicitly allowed.
In future editions of this subject, students who have committed irregularities in an evaluation act will not have any of the evaluation activities carried out validated.
In summary: copying, allowing copying or plagiarism (or the attempt to) in any of the evaluation activities is equivalent to a FAIL, not compensable and without validation of these parts of the subject in subsequent courses.
g) Evaluation of repeating students
Regarding the repeating students, in the case of having passed the practices, the final work or the problems, will save the qualification obtained from the previous course in these parts.
The repeating students will not have differential treatment in the parts that they must take.
h) Single assessment
This coursedoes not provide for the single assessment system.
