The methodology used in the directed activities combines master classes (for the presentation of the theoretical and descriptive contents of the course) with practical activities, which require the active participation of the students individually and in groups.
In the supervised activities, students must read, analyze and synthesize texts and mandatory reading documents, as well as prepare and carry out the activities assigned by the teacher.
The students will have support materials in the Moodle of the subject and with face-to-face tutorials.
The calendar will be available on the first day of class. Students will find all information on the Virtual Campus: the description of the activities, teaching materials, and any necessary information for the proper follow-up of the subject.
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.

CONTINUOUS ASSESSMENT:
Students must complete the following tests and contributions throughout the course:
The characteristics of each one of the practices will be specified during the course and can be consulted in the Moodle.
In order to pass the subject the student must achieve a minimum grade average equal to or greater than 3.5 points out of 10 in the tests, provided that the sum of all evaluation activities is at least 5. Students who have failed some of the activities may apply for re-evaluation of a maximum of two of the tests.
Students will be entitled to the revaluation of the subject. They should present a minimum of activities that equals two-thirds of the total grading.
In order to pass the course, all tests must be completed and handed in by the established deadline. A final grade of 5 or higher must be obtained. To calculate the final grade, the percentages indicated above will be applied. In order to pass the course, it is necessary that the weighted sum of all the evaluation activities is at least a 5.
Students who have not obtained a 5 in the weighted sum of all the activities must compulsorily take a make-up test. All the tests are recoverable, except for the follow-up folder. The maximum score that can be obtained in the recovery of each part is 5, but the final grade will include the average obtained after applying the percentages. The teacher will indicate which evaluation activities must be recovered.
Students will be considered "not evaluated" if they have submitted only one of the practices/tests. The elaboration of more than one practice/test will mean, then, the will of the student to be evaluated in the subject and, therefore, his presentation to the evaluation.
In order to be entitled to the extraordinary review, the ordinary revision must have been made.
In case of a second enrolment, students will have to follow the ordinary evaluation of the subject.
SINGLE ASSESSMENT:
Students must complete the following tests throughout the course:
The date of the theoretical exams and practice submissions will be indicated on Moodle at the beginning of the course.
The conditions to pass and re-evaluate the subject are the same as those for students following continuous assessment.
WARNING
The completion of punctuation, morphosyntax, lexicon errors will have a penalty of 0.2 each. A test with more than 15 grammatical errors will be directly suspendedwith a 0 and must be repeated in the re-evaluation.
The student who performs any irregularity (copy, plagiarism, identitytheft, use of AI...) will be qualified with 0 in this assignment or exam. In case there are several irregularities, the final grade of the subject will be 0.
Whenever the URKUND anti-plagiarism tool indicates more than 85% plagiarism, the final grade for that assessment activity will be 0 and there will be no possibility of retaking the assignment. This will apply to all students involved in plagiarism.
