Students will be able to:
- Know and analyse the diachronic structure of medieval art history.
- Use, order and interpret artistic sources.
- Know and be able to use information gathering tools, such as bibliographic catalogues, archive inventories and electronic references.
- Know, analyse and transmit the history of general medieval art and the history of medieval art specific to the territory.
- Know and interpret the history of medieval art as a discipline under construction.
- Know and analyse the themes and problems of medieval art that are the subject of historiographical debate.
- Explain the characteristics, functions and basic lines of art in its different manifestations throughout history, as well as the causes of these characteristics, placing the work of art in the appropriate contexts in which it was created and connecting it with other forms of cultural expression.
- Understand the different formal and visual languages, know the different artistic techniques used throughout the history of art and assimilate the fundamentals and basic knowledge of the History of Universal Art.
- Work independently with responsibility and initiative.
- Work collaboratively in a team and share responsibility.
- Communicate information and ideas clearly and effectively in public.
In order to facilitate and rationalise the teaching of the subject, the following techniques will be used:
- Lectures in which the theoretical contents will be explained. This is a face-to-face activity in the classroom.
- Interactive classes in which the activities will be practical and related to the theoretical contents of the subject. For the field practices, a scheduled visit to a centre of interest is foreseen (Alcobaça, Batalha, Tomar, Coimbra); if this is not possible, it will take place in the classroom.
- Personalised tutoring.
The following face-to-face training activities will be carried out:
1) Theoretical classes dedicated to the explanation and understanding of the contents under study. These classes will be given by the lecturer, but in some cases the collaboration of a student or group of students will be requested for the presentations. The appropriate technological support resources (audiovisual and computer) will be used for the explanations.
2) Practical classes dedicated to the reading of bibliography and the analysis of medieval works of art that serve as a model for the theoretical contents studied, and practical classes dedicated to working with the instruments necessary for academic and research activity in the field of medieval architecture and iconography studies. These practical classes will be directed by the teacher, but will seek the active participation of the student, both in the development and resolution of exercises carried out collectively in the classroom, and in the personal preparation outside the classroom of some exercise, for subsequent sharing in the classroom. Also for the practical classes, technological resources that may be useful will be used.
3) Practical classes dedicated to the presentation, analysis and discussion of a small piece of work carried out individually or in groups.
4) Also outside the classroom, a field practice activity will be carried out (if possible) in collaboration with other subjects of the Degree (Alcobaça, Batalha, Tomar, Coimbra), while this activity will be subject to the possibility of subsidy by the Faculty, and will be compulsory for all students enrolled in the subject, while evaluable (with a sustitutive exercise however). The aim is for students to understand the interdisciplinary nature of medieval art and at the same time for them to be able to understand and analyse its different realities in situ.
4) Individual or small group tutorials to monitor the learning process and to follow up, in due course, the preparation of the work.
Non-face-to-face training activities will include:
1) Mainly the autonomous work of the student, which he/she organises personally and freely for the correct learning of the knowledge and competences objective of the subject. This work must necessarily include synthesis, study and assimilation of the information received, complementary reading and search for new information, drawing up conclusions, etc.
2) Preparation of a theoretical presentation or a practical exercise assigned by the lecturer, and reading of a recommended bibliographical title.
3) Preparation and writing of a small work of practical application of some aspect dealt with in the subject.
Continuous Assessment is a necessary and compulsory part of the degree programme.
The final assessment will consist of three parts: written test (exam), participation in discussion seminars (debates, comments on images and texts) and personal work (with its possible oral presentation). The written test will account for 60% of the final grade. As for the discussion seminars and assignments, 40% of the final grade. In any case, students must obtain a minimum mark of 5/10 for each of the evaluation parameters in order to be eligible for the final sum. Given that the evaluation is continuous, attendance to the classrooms is compulsory, so that a repeated absence of more than 20% would make it impossible for the student to be evaluated.
DISPENSATION: Students who are granted dispensation from class attendance (following the Instruction No. 1/2017 of the General Secretariat on the dispensation of class attendance in certain circumstances), will be evaluated with a specific final test that will account for 100% of the grade.
FRAUDULENT PERFORMANCE: For cases of fraudulent performance of exercises or tests, the provisions of the Regulations on the assessment of the academic performance of students and the review of qualifications shall apply.
Taking into account the above:
FIRST OPPORTUNITY OF THE CALL :
- Students will take the written test (exam, with a maximum validity of 6 points) on the official date set by the Faculty of Geography and History. The mark obtained in this exam -as long as it exceeds the stipulated minimum- will be added to the marks obtained during the continuous assessment, from which the final mark of each student will be derived.
SECOND OPPORTUNITY OF THE CALL :
- Students who have not passed or taken the written test (exam) at the first opportunity may take the written test (with a maximum validity of 6 points) on the official date of the second opportunity. The mark obtained in the written test -as long as it exceeds the stipulated minimum- will be added to the marks obtained in the practicals and assignments during the continuous assessment, from which the final mark of each student will be derived.
- Students who have not completed or passed the seminars, practicals and assignments corresponding to the continuous assessment during the course must hand them in to the teacher before the start time of the written test (exam) scheduled for the present exam session (all seminars, practicals and assignments must be handed in by those who have not completed them; or only those seminars, practicals or specific assignments that are missing or failed must be handed in by those who have not completed or passed them during the continuous assessment during the course). These seminars, practicals and assignments will maintain the maximum validity of 4 points in their entirety.
The workload for the student will be 7 hours per week on a regular basis (including tutorials in a very small group). In addition, 2 hours of theory in a full group and 1 hour of interactive practice in a small group. The distribution of all the activities in hours of student work is as follows (150 hours in total):
PRESENT WORK HOURS OF STUDENT WORK (51 hours):
Theoretical classes: 32 hours.
Interactive classes and seminars in the classroom: 12 hours.
Interactive practical classes in field practices: 7 h.
Personalised tutorials: 3 h.
NON-PERSONAL HOURS OF STUDENT PERSONAL WORK (99 hours):
Individual or group self-study: 60 hours.
Recommended reading, library activities and similar: 25 hours.
Preparation of oral presentations, debates and similar: 7 hours.
Other tasks proposed by the teacher: 7 hours.
- Although no specific prior training is required, for admission to the degree in History in general and enrolment in this subject in particular, it is recommended that students have a humanistic background (R.D. 1467/2007, BOE of 6 November, which establishes the structure of the baccalaureate and sets the minimum teaching requirements).
- Ability to read in a foreign language commonly used in scientific production in the field of medieval studies.
