Teaching organization and methodology

In general, the subjects are organized into face-to-face activities, guided work activities and independent work activities. The face-to-face sessions, which take up a third of the total hours dedicated to the subject, can be dedicated to the presentation by the teacher and the debate with the students on the contents of the subject and the problems it raises theoretical conception and its practical application. Directed activities can also be used for the development of tasks carried out by students and for their review.

The Teaching Plan for the subjects is the instrument that determines the fundamental contents of the subjects, as well as the methodology and assessment systems. However, students must consult the subject programs, posted on the virtual campus of each of them, which specify both the content, the methodology and the assessment. The description that is now made of the teaching methodologies that are developed in the degree, will be found in more detail in the Teaching Plan and in the corresponding program of each subject:
