Methodology

Our teaching approach and assessment procedures may be altered if public health authorities impose new restrictions on public gatherings for COVID-19.

SUPERVISED

  • Tutored tutoring and other activities.

AUTONOMUS

  • Making proposals: theory and practice of art education: music and visual and plastic.

DIRECTED

Classes in group:

  • Exhibitions by teachers of content and basic issues on the agenda. It is done with the whole group class and allows exposure of the main content through an open and active participation by students.
  • Planning and organization of exercises and activities that are subsequently carried out in seminars.
  • Coordination and interdisciplinary approach between plastic and musical activities.
  • Making collective musical activities.

Seminars:

  • Workspaces in small groups (1/2 or 1/3 of the large group) supervised by faculty where analysis documents, case resolution or various activities delved into the contents and themes, worked in the large group.
  • Conducting exercises and activities designed in large group sessions.
  • Completion of exercises and activities specific to seminar work.
  • Oral activities, individual or group exhibitions. Comments and reviews of the results.

TRIPS: Trips to museums or other art centres and musical workshops. The trip to the Musical Museum and Gamelan workshop will cost 5 euros approximately per student. If the student is unable to make the trip, the following alternatives will be proposed: go on the trip on another day, with another group, or look for an alternative to the trip in a complementary work format.


MATERIAL: The teacher can ask for the purchase of some materials for the development of the different activities that will cost approximately 10-15 euros. 

Due to the current "climate alarm", "lack of natural resources" and "economic imbalance" that we are experiencing on the planet, the team of teachers at the Didactic Unit of Plastic Expression will promote artistic skills from an eco-social and eco-feminist point of view. Priority will be given to natural and recycled materials during the workshop sessions and individual and/or group artistic creations. With the use of natural materials and the elaboration of others from them, the aim is to generate environmental awareness among the students, which implies developing sensitivity and critical ability to perceive the natural and material environment that surrounds us and to know and react to attitudes, situations and events that contribute to improving the care of the planet.

If other materials are needed, teachers will recommend what is appropriate for the planned activities, which will have a sustainable cost and can be shared among the students. Mechanisms will be sought to ensure that everyone has them.

Annotation: Within the schedule set by the centre or degree programme, 15 minutes of one class will be reserved for students to evaluate their lecturers and their courses or modules through questionnaires.

Assessment

  • Given the active and participatory methodology used in class, attendance is important to achieving the competencies of the subject.
  • In order to pass the subject, each of the two parts must be passed: the visual and plastic education, and the music education. The final grade will be the arithmetic mean between the two parts.
  • It is necessary to show an attitude compatible with the educational profession, developing basic skills such as participation, cooperation, empathy, argumentation and respect for others. The student has to be responsible and rigorous in self-employed work and show critical thinking and behaviours that promote a friendly and positive, democratic environment where differences are respected. This attitude will be indispensable to pass the subject.
  • It is also necessary that the student shows good general communicative competence, both orally and in writing, and a good command of the language or languages that appear in the teaching guide. In all the activities (individual and group), linguistic correction, writing and formal aspects of presentation will therefore be taken into account. Students must be able to express themselves fluently and correctly and must show a high degree of understanding of academic texts. An activity can be returned (not evaluated) or failed if the teacher considers that it does not meet these requirements.
  • The assessment will also focus on skills for cooperation and teamwork and will be gender sensitive.
  • The use of electronic devices in class will only be accepted for academic use.
  • The total or partial plagiarism of one of the evaluation activities and/or the copy in an evaluation test is a direct reason for suspending the subject.
  • The delivery of the different evaluation tasks must be done on the marked day or before, in no case will subsequent deliveries be accepted.
  • In the case of music, the student must have passed the written exam to pass.
  • People with vocal problems that prevent them from singing should bring a medical report explaining the situation and adaptations to the oral exam. If you don't have a diagnosis, despite having vocal problems, you will need to take the exam and if you fail, you will be averaged with the other grades.
  • The retake can only be passed if a score of at least 5 is achieved (without rounding). At the same time, the maximum score that can be obtained in the retake will be 5. In the case of music, only the exams (oral and written) will be eligible for the retake, the rest will average. In the case of visual education, the tasks to be developed to pass the subject will be agreed upon with the teacher in an individual tutoring session.
