Specific competence in the field (ORDER CIN/2134/2008)*
1. To know and identify the structure and function of the human body. To understand the molecular and physiological bases of cells and tissues.
2. To identify and position the different anatomical structures properly, as well as the different parts of the apparatus and systems of the human body.
3. To identify the anatomical elements that make up the apparatus and systems using different imaging techniques.
4. To acquire some ability to graphically represent the morphology and anatomical arrangement of the different microscopic and macroscopic elements of the human body.
5. To use the terminology of the macroscopic structures that composes the human body correctly.
6. To be able to perform the adequate search that allows to access the didactic resources of the department, the school and the university. Practical activities.
Results acquired by the student
1. The student acquires the basic morphological knowledge to recognize and interpret normal or changing signs of health/illness, pain, disability of the person (assessment and diagnosis).
2. The student acquires relevant knowledge of human morphology and the ability to apply basic and life sciences.
Expository teaching
The exposition of the theoretical contents of the program by the teachers will be carried out in the classroom with the help of the blackboard and audio-visual means, in addition a bibliographic orientation of each topic will be made emphasizing the basic concepts of the subject, and at the same time, those aspects of greater difficulty to be understood. Students' participation in the classes will be encouraged.
Interactive teaching
In the interactive sessions the student will perform activities in an autonomous way and within a team, under the supervision of the teachers.
* In the seminars, the students will develop skills and abilities to use the anatomical terminology (anatomical nomina), for the interpretation of anatomical images and the use of the literature related to the subject.
* In the practical part of the course it will acquire competences, skills and abilities to identify and recognize anatomical structures in models, pieces and corpse. Other skills developed by the student will be related to perform anatomical drawings and team working.
For the practical classes each student must bring the corresponding notes, an anatomy atlas, drawing material, and white lab coat. The student is requested to be careful with the practice material.
The participation of the students in both the seminars and the practical classes is compulsory, therefore it is necessary to prepare the contents of the program that will be developed in them beforehand.
Through the Aula virtual the student will have access to the information and material necessary for the development of the subject.
Tutorials
Tutorials will be carried out and a public tutorial foro will be available to the students to guide their learning and to solve their doubts about the subject.
Attendance to practical classes is mandatory to be evaluated.
1) Evaluation of the theoretical contents acquired in the expository classes and seminars
It will be done with a multiple choice test of single answer. It is necessary to have a 60% of correct answers to pass the exam. In order to pass the course, the theoretical exam must be passed.
2) Evaluation of the skills and abilities acquired in the practical classes:
A practical exam will be held. It is necessary to have a 60% of correct answers to pass the exam. To pass the course it is mandatory to pass the practical exam.
The final tests (both for theory and practical contents) will be held in person.
The test and the practical exam will make up 70% of the final mark.
3) Continuous evaluation: The following will be valued: 1) Attendance at the expository classes and seminars. 2) team work that will be presented in class. At the beginning of the course, the topics to be dealt with in these works will be proposed and distributed. 3) The completion of questionnaires that will be proposed throughout the course.
The continuous evaluation will be carried out by means of face-to-face and remote activities using the resources of the institutional platforms (Virtual Classroom-Moodle and Microsoft Teams).
Continuous evaluation will account for 30% of the final mark.
36 hours of individual study.
36 hours for work, reading and bibliographic search
18 hours of personal work for the preparation of the papers and reports
Total self-employment: 90 hours
Use of the recommended anatomy notes and atlas in class.
Drawing of structures and their anatomical relations.
Visualization of the videos recommended in the expository classes.
Use of specific computer anatomy programs.
Everything stated in previous sections is foreseen for the conditions corresponding to scenario 1 (adapted normality (with no restrictions and physical presence).
The contents will be the same in scenarios 1, 2 and 3, although they may be reorganized, especially in scenario 3 (closure of the facilities; impossibility of teaching with physical presence), to adapt them to a completely remote teaching.
"In the case of performing exercises or tests in a fraudulent way, Regulations for the Evaluation of Students' Academic Performance and the Revision of Grades will apply.
CONTINGENCY PLAN
ADAPTED TEACHING METHODOLOGY
Scenario 2 (distance; partial restrictions to physical attendance):
Face-to-face and remote teaching will be combined in order to promote the social distancing measures in force at that time.
Tutorials will preferably be virtual.
Institutional tools and platforms will be used (Virtual Classroom-Moodle and Microsoft Teams).
Scenario 3 (closure of the facilities; impossibility of teaching with physical attendance):
Teaching will be exclusively virtual.
Tutorials will be virtual, using the tutorial foro of the Aula virtual or remote meetings.
For telematic teaching, institutional tools and platforms will be used (Virtual Classroom-Moodle and Microsoft Teams)".
ADAPTED EVALUATION SYSTEM
Scenario 2
The final test will be held in person.
The continuous evaluation will be carried out by means of face-to-face and remote activities using the resources of the institutional platforms (Virtual Classroom-Moodle and Microsoft Teams).
Scenario 3
The final tests will be carried out using resources that guarantee the identification of the student, as well as the personal performing of the test. In the event that the technical means are not available to guarantee the fulfilment of these premises, an oral final test will be used for evaluation.
