Students will find relevant information about music and nature in the Internet. Examples:

Basic
1.- That students know how to apply the knowledge acquired and their problem solving capacity in new or less known surroundings in larger contexts (or multidiscipline) related to their field of study.
Specific
8.- That students develop the capacity to assess the educational richness of the natural environment and build resources to undertake activities.
9.- That students show positive attitudes and behaviour in relation to landscape and natural original elements.
Theoretical clases will develop the historical proposals about soundscape and other forms of music related to nature that exist nowdays as well as listening to sound proposals in this sense. Students will read previously, when necessary, the written materials part of the course. Sound walks will be undertaken with the aim of getting to know the educational possibilities and resources that are available to develop the sound aspects of the environment. Exercises from the Alexander Tecnique, Eutony and the Feldenkrais Method will be undertaken to improve the listening capacity and personal and environmental perception.
Given the uncertainty arising from the pandemic, the specifications detailed in the Guidelines for the development of safe face-to-face teaching in the USC will be taken into account.
Scenario 1: adapted normality
- Explanatory and interactive teaching will be fundamentally of face-to-face nature. Tutoring can be done partially in a virtual way.
- Students will have guaranteed accessibility of the materials that appear in the basic bibliography in agreement with the conditions of the scenario.
Scenario: distance
-Explanatory and interactive teaching will coexist with virtual teaching, in accordance with the provisions of the Faculty. Tutoring will preferably take place virtually.
- Students will be guaranteed the accessibility of the materials that appear in the basic bibliography according to the conditions of the scenario.
Scenario 3: closure of facilities
- Teaching (explanatory, interactive and tutoring) will be completely virtual, using synchronous and asynchronous mechanisms.
- Students will be guaranteed the accessibility of the materials that appear in the basic bibliography according to the conditions of the scenario.
The virtual classroom and Microsoft Teams will be used.
Following the card of the subject in the Report of the Degree and the Guidelines for the development of safe face-to-face teaching in the USC, the assessment of the subject will take into account the following:
1.- Written papers and /or other productions (text comentary, experiences and listenings): 30%
2.- Tasks (presentation of a soundscape): 70%. This work will be shared with the other subjects of module 2.
Students with exemption from teaching will have to deliver the same tasks as the students who attend face-to-face teaching, take the theoretical-practical exam and a written exam on the contents worked on in the explanatory classes. The qualification of this group of students will be 90% of the final grade.
In cases of fraudulent perfomance of exercises or tests, the provisions of the Regulations for evaluating student academic performance and reviewing grades will apply.
Scenario 1: adapted normality
- The continuous formative evaluation will be combined with the delivery of the final tasks.
Scenario 2: distance
- The continuous formative assessment will be combined with the delivery of the final tasks electronically.
Scenario 3: closure of facilities
- The continuous formative assessment will be combined with the delivery of the final tasks electronically.
For cases of fraudulent performance of exercises or tests, the provisions of the Regulations for the evaluation of students' academic performance and the review of qualifications will apply.
FACE-TO-FACE WORK (hours)
Face-to-face in big groups: 8
Interactive sessions: 8
Tutorship: 2
Face-to-face work (other tasks): 9
TOTAL hours of face-to-face: 27
PERSONAL WORK (hours)
Individual autonomous study: 11
Recomended readings and listenings: 11
Making of the soundscape: 16
Attendance to recomended activities: 10
TOTAL hours of personal work of the student: 48
This subject will allow students to become conscious of the soundscape, learning how to manage sound as an essential element in our relationship with other fields, understanding that sound is also heritage that must be preserved and lived with, being conscious of it. Soundscapes are not only found in nature, but we understand that privileged soundscapes are found in cities. A positive attitude towards the subject will be taken into account.
CONTINGENCY PLAN
Scenario 1: adapted normality
- Explanatory and interactive teaching will be fundamentally of face-to-face nature. Tutoring can be carried out partially in a virtual manner.
- The continuous formative evaluation will be combined with the delivery of the final tasks.
- Students will have guaranteed the accessibility of the materials that appear in the basic bibliography in accordance with the conditions of the scenario.
Scenario 2: distance
- Explanatory and interactive teaching of face-to-face character will coexist with the virtual one, in agreement with what the Faculty decides. Tutoring will preferably be conducted in a virtual way.
- The continuous formative evaluation will be combined with the delivery of the final tasks in a telematic way.
- Students will have guaranteed the accessibility of the materials that appear in the basic bibliography in accordance with the conditions of the scenario.
Scenario 3: closure of facilities
- Teaching (explanatory, interactive and tutoring) will be completely virtual, using synchronous or asynchronous mechanisms.
- The continuous formative evaluation will be combined with the delivery of the final tasks in a telematic way.
- Students will have guaranteed the accessibility of the materials that appear in the basic bibliography in accordance with the conditions of the scenario
