Assesssment methods and criteria:

Classification Type: Quantitativa (0-20)

Evaluation Methodology:
Expositive methodology for theoretical classes complemented with the use of video projections. Theoretical and practical classes in the classroom and / or laboratory using models and mannequins. Presentation of cases-situations demonstrated in the laboratory. Guidance for research and study in the hours attached to the student's autonomous work. Clarification of doubts. Assessment Methodology: Model B of the AAAUMa Regulation - two tests each, with a 50% weighting for the final classification of the Course. Minimum grade in each element of assessment 9.5 values. Both evaluation elements are recoverable at resort / improvement time or in special season according to student status.
