Methodology
The course combines theory and practice. Teacher-centred lessons will introduce the contents necessary to take part in practical activities to be carried in groups in the classroom. Outside the classroom, participants will be expected to read the compulsory course readings and to elaborate individual assignments.
Assignments will include the analysis, selection and assessment of works from different parameters.
Online and face-to-face assignments must be elaborated using some sort of ICT tool.
Our teaching approach and assessment procedures may be altered if public health authorities impose new restrictions on public gatherings for COVID-19.
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
Course Assignments
Class attendance is mandatory. In order to obtain a positive final evaluation, the student must attend a minimum of 80% of all the classes.
Activities will be carried out:
1. Analysis of the traits found in current literary works targeted at children and adolescents.
2. Assessment of literary works according to their function for school literary learning.
3. Selection of books for use at school or in other instances of reading promotion of children's and youth books.
4. Participation in classroom activities and virtual forums according to the guidelines established in the program.
The evaluation will be carried out from the delivered activities, which will be valued by the teaching staff.
Participation in the classroom will also be considered. In the activities, the readings of each topic should be used.
To benefit from the continuous evaluation, the student must present all the activities and pass them by 80%. Otherwise, it will be considered "Not Presented" (NP).
The review and reassessment procedure of the tests will be carried out individually.
Single Assessment
In the case of opting for the single assessment, the same evaluation and reassessment system will be applied as for the continuous evaluation, but the written submissions and oral presentations will be made in a single day (October 25). None of these deliveries will receive formative evaluation because opting for the single assessment implies giving up continuous evaluation. In the case of the single evaluation, an evaluation interview is added to the set of activities that are evaluated. Therefore, in the case of opting for the single evaluation, the tests that will beevaluated willbe the following:
Attendance and quality of class participation: 5%
Written and/or oral presentation of the analysis and assessment of works of children's and youth literature: 25%
Written and/or oral delivery of the analysis of articles and literary projects: 25%
Memory/individual module work: 25%
Evaluation interview: 20%
Reassessment
The same reassessment system will be applied as for the continuous evaluation.
The reassessment will take place on November 3 and the re-evaluation will consist of an oral presentation and/or a written exam, depending on whether the suspended part is the theoretical part or practice.
