Teaching method

The working method to be adopted for the implementation of the syllabus, will be the subject of oral explanation, supported with the projection of images and representation in connection with construction of examples. This method will lead to the achievement by the student of many practical exercises to apply the knowledge imparted.

Evaluation method

The course evaluation is done by the method of continuous assessment.

The frequence is mandatory with compulsory presence in 3/4 of the classes in thesemester. In the case of E-Learning, attendance is ensured by the delivery, within the stipulated period, of each practical assignment.

The evaluation consists of achievement throughout the semester three individual practical work and a test. At the end of each class, a questionnaire about the class will be sent, the evaluation of which is part of the evaluation.

Practical Work Individual 1 (TPI1) 25% of final grade; Practical Work individual 2 (TPI2) 20% of final grade; Practical Work Individual 3 (TPI3) 25% of final grade. Test with the ponderation of 20% of final grade (T). Class Questions 10% of the final grade

AC = ∑ [TPI1 (25%) + TPI2 (20%) + TPI3 (25%) + T (20%) + CQ (10%)]

In E-learning classes, computer cameras should always be on.
