This subject has methodological and digital resources to make possible its continuity in non-contact mode in the case of being necessary for reasons related to the Covid-19. In this way, the achievement of the same knowledge and skills that are specified in this teaching plan will be ensured.
This is a part-time subject. This means that there is a% part of the subject that is done in person, in the classroom, with different activities individually or in groups of students and a% of the subject that is worked autonomously, outside of the classroom.
The methodology in part-time subjects requires the responsibility of the student, and their good time management.

|
Activities |
ECTS |
Face-to-face sessions in the classroom (theory presentation, seminars, personalized tutorials) |
Theoretical presentations with audiovisual support, simulations, role-playing games, group work, application of practice to theory, problem-based learning (ABP), presentations by students |
1.2 |
Self-employment
|
Personal study, problem solving, information search (bibliography, webography), guided works (questionnaires, wikis, debates, forums ...), model reproduction, video capsules |
4.8 |
Both in the face-to-face sessions and in the autonomous work, the student will work individually and in work groups.
Each ECTS is equivalent to 25 hours of student dedication, considering the time invested in the total of the activities related to the face-to-face time and the time of autonomous work, that the professor of the subject guides, as well as the reading times, information search, connection to the Virtual Classroom, elaboration of works.
