Activities and Methodology
| Title | Hours | ECTS | Learning Outcomes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Type: Directed | |||
| Seminars | 75 | 3 | 1, 2, 5, 7, 11 |
| Type: Supervised | |||
| Personal study | 50 | 2 | 1, 3, 4, 6, 7, 13 |
| Type: Autonomous | |||
| Lectures | 150 | 6 | 4, 5, 6, 7, 9, 12, 13 |
The methodology is a combination of lectures and seminars, in which it introduces case resolution. The interaction with the student from the reading of articles and / or industry reports, watching and auditions is the key to the development of the module.
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
Continous Assessment Activities
| Title | Weighting | Hours | ECTS | Learning Outcomes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Seminars | 10% | 2.5 | 0.1 | 1, 3, 6, 8, 10, 11, 12 |
| Test/Written work | 90% | 22.5 | 0.9 | 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13 |
Students should carry out an individual exploratory work on a trend in the field of audiovisual and advertising content based on a practical case study. This must be contextualized in relation to the ecosystem and the programmatic genre to which it is ascribed. It is essential to define the variables that show a tendency.
In the event that the student performs any irregularity that may lead to a significant variation of an evaluation act, this evaluation act will be graded with 0, regardless of the disciplinary process that could be instructed. In the event, that several irregularities occur in the evaluation acts of the same subject, the final grade for this subject will be 0.
This subject doesn't provide for the single assessment system.
