La Nit proposes frameworks of meaning within which works circulate, which we interpret, and from which we launch new creations. These frameworks of meaning are very diverse and refer from the characteristic discourses of mystery and negativity, to a certain physical and psychological exploration, to the relationship with nature and the stars or to generic conventions such as terror, among others. The purpose of this subject is to access an understanding of the nocturnal through the creation of images according to different approaches, especially cultural ones, where the end result is the consolidation of one's own vision and a creative use of the night and the night light.
The classroom (physical or virtual) is a safe space, free of sexist, racist, homophobic, transphobic and discriminatory attitudes, either towards students or towards teachers. We trust that together we can create a safe space where we can make mistakes and learn without having to suffer prejudice from others.
The subject covers topics such as the following:
Continuous assessment (70%):
Laboratory practices (mandatory) 20%
Final work 15%
20% film analysis
Photographic story 15%
Final exam (30%):
30% exam
To access this weighting, it is essential to have achieved an average of 5 in both the continuous assessment and the final exam. If the student has a lower average in one of the parts, he/she does not access this weighting and fails with the grade of the suspended part.
The continuing assessment portion is non-refundable. The exam part is retrievable in the make-up exam. To access the weighted calculation of the grade, it is necessary to achieve a grade of 5 in the recovery.
Failure to complete an exercise or non-compliance with the deadlines or forms established by the teachers for its completion means a grade of zero.
Identification of plagiarism is considered a serious circumstance that may result in a failing grade for an activity. In case of detection of plagiarism, the coordination of the degree will be informed so that the corresponding disciplinary measures can be taken.
