General Competition
- Perform autonomous learning and develop analytical skills and critical attitude.
- Understand, know and use specific language.
- Communicate and share information, as well as practice teamwork.
- Use information sources fluently and understand the peculiarities of organ recognition through medical imaging.
- Encourage reflective and rational attitudes in the use of imaging techniques.
Specific skills
- To know and use the main sources of scientific information on organ recognition through medical imaging.
- Know the physical bases of the imaging techniques usually used in medical practice.
- Know the topographic anatomy of the living and healthy human being.
- Know the medical imaging techniques capable of obtaining information about the body anatomy of healthy people.
- Recognize organs with the various imaging techniques and describe the reasons why they behave in a particular way with each imaging technique.
- Distinguish, through imaging, healthy organs from gross alterations that substantially affect normal anatomy.
- Be able to select the appropriate imaging technique(s) to study each organ.
The subject consists of 30 hours of attendance: 16 expository, 13 interactive and one for examinations.
The interactive classes are broken down into 8 laboratory practices, 4 seminars and 1 tutorial.
Thus, each of the four thematic modules will be taught through 4 expository classes, 2 laboratory practices and 1 seminar.
Scenario 1 (adapted normality):
The teaching of the expository and interactive classes will be preferably in person. Tutorials may be face-to-face or virtual, and a tutorial forum will be set up in the virtual classroom for specific questions on the subject. In order to carry out remote activities, a virtual classroom will be opened beforehand and the institutional tools and platforms will be used (Virtual Classroom-Moodle and Microsoft Teams).
Scenario 2 (distance; partial restrictions to physical presence):
"Face-to-face and remote teaching will be combined in order to promote the social distancing measures in force at that time. Institutional tools and platforms (Virtual Classroom-Moodle and Microsoft Teams) will be used for this purpose".
The teaching of the expository and interactive classes will be able to be in a 50% presential and also will be made in remote enabling a virtual classroom in the matter, using the tools and institutional platforms (Virtual Classroom-Moodle and Microsoft Teams, Microsoft forms). Tutorials will preferably be virtual.
Scenario 3 (closure of the facilities; impossibility of teaching with physical presence):
"Teaching will be exclusively virtual, using institutional tools and platforms (Virtual-Moodle Classroom and Microsoft Teams). A tutorial forum will also be set up in the virtual classroom to resolve doubts.
Scenarios 1 and 2
The final tests will have PRESENTIAL CHARACTERISTICS
"The resources of the institutional platforms (Virtual-Moodle Classroom and Microsoft Teams) may also be used for continuous evaluation".
A final exam will be conducted on short questions about the identification of structures in images referred to the thematic modules mentioned above, exploring the application that the student makes of the conceptual aspects poured into the subject
The final exam will consist of four blocks of questions, each of which will be scored from 0 to 10 points.
The student will pass the final exam when he or she obtains 50% of the score, taking into account that at least a score of 3 points is required in each of the blocks.
It will be valued (at the teacher's discretion) the participation and attitude in the work developed by the student in the different presential or telematic activities of continuous evaluation of the subject.
Scenario 3
"The final tests will be carried out using resources that guarantee the identification of the student, as well as the personal nature 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".
Continuous assessment will be taken into account if it has been carried out at the discretion of each teacher and could account for up to 100% of the final mark (release examination as soon as possible, once the subject has been completed).
"In cases of fraudulent exercises or tests, the provisions of the Regulations on the Evaluation of Students' Academic Performance and the Review of Grades shall apply".
The subject consists of 30 hours of attendance: 16 expository, 13 interactive and one for examinations.
The interactive classes are broken down into 8 laboratory practices, 4 seminars and 1 tutorial.
The student will have to review the knowledge acquired in anatomy and physiology, for a correct assimilation of the concepts, aptitudes and attitudes that through the subject are offered. Likewise, learning will be facilitated by previous knowledge of the fundamental physical laws involved in the functioning of biological systems.
Scenarios 1, 2 and 3:
The recommendations for the study will be the same in all three scenarios (already specified in the programming of each subject). The tutorials will be face-to-face and/or telematic and the bibliographic resources may be used in paper (scenario 1) and/or digital (2 and 3).
Contingency plan
Teaching methodology scenarios 2 and 3
Scenario 2 (distancing; partial restrictions on physical attendance):
"Face-to-face and remote teaching will be combined in order to promote the social distancing measures in force at that time. Institutional tools and platforms (Virtual Classroom-Moodle and Microsoft Teams) will be used for this purpose".
The teaching of the expository and interactive classes will be able to be in a 50% presential and also will be made in remote enabling a virtual classroom in the matter, using the tools and institutional platforms (Virtual Classroom-Moodle and Microsoft Teams, Microsoft forms). Tutorials will preferably be virtual
Scenario 3 (closure of the facilities; impossibility of teaching with physical presence):
"Teaching will be exclusively virtual, using institutional tools and platforms (Virtual Classroom-Moodle and Microsoft Teams)". A tutorial forum will also be set up in the virtual classroom to resolve doubts.
Evaluation system in scenarios 2 and 3
Scenario 2.
The final test will be PRESENTIAL.
The resources of the institutional platforms (Virtual Classroom-Moodle and Microsoft Teams) may also be used for continuous evaluation".
Scenario 3.
"The final tests will be carried out using resources that guarantee the identification of the student, as well as the personal nature of the test. If the technical means to guarantee the fulfilment of these premises are not available, an oral final test will be used".
Continuous assessment will be taken into account if it has been carried out at the discretion of each teacher and could account for up to 100% of the final mark (release examination as soon as possible, once the subject has been completed).
