Basics:
CB7 - That the students can apply their knowledge and their ability to solve problems in new or unfamiliar environments within broader (or multidisciplinary) contexts related to their field of study
CB10 - Students must possess the learning skills that enable them to continue studying in a way that will be largely self-directed or autonomous.
General:
CG7 - Ability to develop the skills to continue learning autonomously or directed, incorporating to their work new concepts, processes or methods derived from research, development and innovation skills.
Transversals:
CT1 - Capacity for analysis and synthesis.
CT3 - Ability to work individually with self-criticism.
CT5 - Ability to obtain adequate, diverse and updated information.
CT9 - Skill in managing information technology and communication (ICT).
CT10 - Use of bibliographic information and the Internet.
CT11 - Use information in a foreign language.
Specifics:
Appropriate knowledge and ability to develop and implement its own technology in renewable energy.
All teachers to be performed by the students activities are classified as follows:
1. Exhibition classes: classes of theory in which teacher present, with help of audiovisual media the contents of the program General online. The aim of these classes is to provide the student with the basic knowledge that will enable it to address the matter of mode using autonomous da bibliography and recommended exercises and works made during the course. The student will have the teaching materials in the Virtual Classroom of the matter. CB7. CB10. CG7. CT1. CE23
2. Interactive classes: classes where the teacher will perform exercises. The student will have the teaching materials in the Virtual Classroom of the matter: is intended to the teacher and the students in the resolution of the exercises to interact. CB7. CB10. CG7. CT1. CT3. CT5. CT9. CT10. CE23
This work will complement with personal work in the resolution of exercises independently. CB7. CB10. CG7. CT1. CT3. CT5. CT11. CT9. CT10. CE23.
3 Tutorials: aimed to discuss, comment, clarify or resolve doubts or issues related to the development of the matter.
4 Works: there will be works of each of the parts of matter with the help of the teacher
4 Testing: the student will perform a written test consisting of issues resolved throughout the course. These tests will assess both the theoretical knowledge and problem solving.
In the case of considering other scenarios, the exhibition classes will be kept at the official time, taught through the Ms Teams platform or the Virtual Campus synchronously or asynchronously.
In the case of practical classes in which the use of the school's computer rooms is necessary and cannot be used, free version calculation programs will be sought, so that students can carry out the practical cases requested from their own teams.
To carry out tutorials, as well as to maintain direct communication both between the students themselves and between them and the teacher, they can be done through the Virtual Campus forum, through Ms. Teams or by email.
Completion of work: 20% of the final grade
Completion of exercises: 50% of the final grade.
Final written exam: 30% of the final grade.
Written probas: CB7, CT5, CT9.
Work and exercises delivered: CT1, CG7, CT3, CT5, CT9, CT10, CT11, CB10, CB7
Participation in the classroom: CT1, CB7
Work and other activities must be delivered within the time limits and are only valid during the academic year.
To pass the subject is necessary that both of the following conditions are met:
- Obtain a minimum mark of 3 over 10 in the exam
- A global mark obtained as weighted examinations, assignments and exercises will be at least 5 out of 10.
If the student does not exceed the matter in the first evaluation period shall be submitted at the end of the second period and test scores on the exercises and the work will be preserved. Maintaining the same proportion of each test.
In cases of fraudulent performance of exercises or tests, the provisions of the Regulations for evaluating student academic performance and reviewing grades will apply.
The students who have been granted the attendance dispensation, according to Instruction 1/2017 of the General Secretariat, will be able to deliver all the activities that are carried out throughout the course, since they will be available to them in the Virtual Campus, so their evaluation It will be under the same conditions as the rest of the students.
2nd chance evaluation
In the event that the student has not passed the subject on the first opportunity, they must take the final exam the second time. The student will take the exam for this opportunity under the same conditions as the first-chance exam, which implies that she will not be able to submit work or pending tasks.
The evaluation of repeating students will be exactly the same as non-repeating students
Face-to-face classroom work:
Exhibition classes: 12 h
Interactive classes: 12 h
Evaluation activities: 2 h
Personal student work:
Reading and preparation of items: 20 h
Exercises: 10 h
Elaboration of works of course: 10 h
Preparation of evaluation tests: 9 h
Total: 75 hours
Regular attendance at both theoretical and practical classes and use of the virtual campus.
-Attendance and participation in class.
-Regular dedication to the theoretical study and realization of exercises and questions proposed.
-Use of the virtual campus for performing the test and for the resolution of doubts and study of the subject.
-Use of the tutorials for the consultation of doubts arising from the study of matter as needed.
In cases of fraudulent performance of exercises or tests, the provisions of the Regulations for evaluating student academic performance and reviewing grades will apply.
