BASIC AND GENERAL
CG2 - Identify, gather, analyze and interpret relevant data on issues related to the business and technological field
CB1 - That students have demonstrated to possess and understand knowledge in an area of study that starts from the base of general secondary education, and is usually found at a level that, although it is supported by advanced textbooks, also includes some aspects that involve knowledge from the cutting edge of your field of study
CB2 - That students know how to apply their knowledge to their work or vocation in a professional way and possess the competencies that are usually demonstrated through the development and defense of arguments and problem solving within their area of study
CB3 - That students have the ability to gather and interpret relevant data (usually within their study area) to make judgments that include a reflection on relevant issues of a social, scientific or ethical nature
CB4 - That students can transmit information, ideas, problems and solutions to both specialized and non-specialized audiences
CB5 - That students have developed those learning skills necessary to undertake further studies with a high degree of autonomy
TRANSVERSAL
CT5 - Ability to solve problems and make decisions by applying theoretical knowledge to practice
CT9 - Capacity for autonomous learning and self-assessment
SPECIFIC
CE13 - Identify sources of reliable information, prepare and interpret said information using analysis techniques and appropriate mathematical, statistical and technological tools to support decision-making
Teaching will be taught in a blended way using as support the corporate platforms of the USC: Moodle (Virtual Campus) and MS Teams. The study and learning of this subject will be supported by the following activities:
(la) Autonomous study by the students of the teaching materials corresponding to each thematic unit, which the teaching staff will make available to the students on the Virtual Campus.
(b) Performance by students of practical activities preferably of an individual nature. In this sense, exercises and multiple choice tests will be proposed. * These must be delivered on the corresponding dates according to the established schedule. The information and delivery of these activities will be articulated through the Virtual Campus.
(c) Active participation of the forums of each thematic unit.
(d) Face-to-face sessions: These sessions, which will take place in accordance with the schedules established by the Faculty, will be taught in the corresponding classroom and will be broadcast synchronously via streaming. Consequently, students will be able to attend them either physically or by connecting through MS Teams. In these sessions you will carry out a brief review of the general contents of each thematic unit and exercises will be done.
The evaluation will take into account all the activities developed by the students.
In cases of fraudulent completion of exercises or tests, the one set out in the "Regulations for the evaluation of the academic performance of students and for the review of qualifications" will apply.
To pass the subject there are two opportunities. Students who do not pass the subject at the first opportunity will have the right to a second, which will be the one that appears in their academic record in case the qualification obtained is higher.
The evaluation system for these two opportunities will be as follows:
Common first chance. Continuous assessment is contemplated, combined with a final test.
1. Continuous assessment: carrying out individual practical activities. Weight in final qualification: 40%. The assessable activities will be collected in the virtual classroom as well as their weighting. In this part the following competences will be evaluated: CG2, CB1, CB2, CB3, CB4, CB5, CG5, CT5, CT9, CE13 2.
Final content exam: compulsory test in which the learning results will be assessed. There will be 20 multiple choice questions. The qualification will be a question correctly answered 0.5 points, incorrectly answered -0.15, blank does not add or subtract. Weight in final qualification: 60%. In this part the following competences will be evaluated: CG2, CB1, CB2, CB3, CB4, CB5, CG5, CT5, CT9, CE13 The final content test will be face-to-face.
In order to be able to add to the mark of the exam / content test the score achieved in the continuous assessment, students must achieve a minimum grade of 5 points out of 10 in the final content exam and participate in at least 40% of the proposed activities
The added mark must be equal to or greater than 5 points out of 10 to pass the subject.
Second extraordinary chance of recovery.
In the second extraordinary recovery opportunity, the same evaluation system will be applied as in the first opportunity. That is, there will be a new final content exam with the weighting established for the first opportunity, which will be added to the score achieved in the continuous assessment.
In accordance with the Permanence Regulations in force at USC for Bachelor and Master studies (art. 5.2), mere attendance and / or participation in any of the activities subject to evaluation will mean that the student's final grade is different from NO PRESENTED.
Students who were granted attendance exemption following Instruction No. 1/2017 of the General Secretariat on class attendance exemption in certain circumstances, will be evaluated with a specific final exam that will account for 100% of the grade. This exam will be face-to-face or remotely (virtual) depending on the scenario determined by the evolution of sanitary conditions.
The subject is 6 credits. The 150 total working hours are distributed as follows:
la) Face-to-face sessions to present basic content, practical activities, etc: 12 hours
b) Tutorials in small groups (physical assistance or by MS Teams): 6 hours
b) Face-to-face exam: 3 hours
c) Autonomous work of the student: 129 hours.
To maximize learning, it is recommended that students, before each face-to-face session, previously review the didactic materials of the corresponding topic according to the subject schedule. On the other hand, it is important that you participate actively in all the activities proposed by the teaching staff and consult the bibliography and other recommended material.
Tutorials are a useful resource that students should use as often as necessary. Frequent access to the virtual campus and institutional mail is essential to find out about different issues that arise throughout the course.
Classes will be taught in Spanish.
CONTINGENCY PLAN
The following adaptations will be applied in the sections of TEACHING METHODOLOGY and LEARNING ASSESSMENT SYSTEM in each alternative scenario that is applicable according to the indications of the competent administration and the USC.
TEACHING METHODOLOGY
The development of the sessions will take place in class schedules established as follows in each of the alternative scenarios:
SCENARIO 2 (DISTANCING):
- Face-to-face sessions: they will be taught in the assigned classroom synchronously. Students will be able to attend physically or electronically through the USC MS ’Teams corporate platform.
- Tutorials: preferably electronically (through the corporate platform of USC MS ’Teams) second it is established at that time.
SCENARIO 3 (CLOSING OF THE FACILITIES):
- Face-to-face sessions: they will be taught synchronously electronically through the USC MS ’Teams corporate platform.
- Tutorials: electronically (through the corporate platform of USC MS ’Teams) second it is established at that time.
LEARNING ASSESSMENT SYSTEM
The development of the evaluation through the instruments established in this section will be carried out on the dates set in the final test calendar and the class schedules established as follows in each of the alternative scenarios:
SCENARIO 2 (DISTANCING):
- Final test: face-to-face or not face-to-face by telematic means (through the virtual campus of the USC and / or the corporate platform of the USC MS ’Teams) second is established at that time from the competent body.
- Continuous assessment: delivery electronically (through the virtual campus of the USC) and resolution in person (physically or electronically through the corporate platform of the USC MS ’Teams).
SCENARIO 3 (CLOSING OF THE FACILITIES):
- Final test: not in person by telematic means (through the virtual campus of the USC and / or the corporate platform of the USC MS ’Teams).
- Continuous evaluation: remote delivery by telematic means (through the virtual campus of the USC) and remote resolution by telematic means (through the corporate platform of the USC MS ’Teams).
