6. Methodology
This subject will take place both in guided and non-guided sessions.
Theory and lab sessions will be both guided (at least partly). Here are the basic
features of each type:
Theory Sessions: They will last between half an hour and two hours.
The professor will present during these sessions the concepts,
processes and procedures relevant to each thematic. Although it will
be mainly expository, students will be encouraged to interact with
professor, answer questions, raise questions, etc.
Lab Sessions: They will last two hours. During the lab sessions, there will
be one or several exercises that students must solve. Students will
have the support of the lab professor to answer any questions that
may arise.
In lab sessions each student must use a computer. No computer
should be shared during these sessions. Students are allowed to talk
with students in their group (please sit nearby). Only one report
should be delivered per group. Report should include a video tutorial
(maximum 4 minutes) where it is shown how you perform the lab as
well as the results. All members of the group should perform at least
two video tutorials (from the whole set of labs).
In some lab sessions (3-4), a short validation test will be proposed. It
will consist of a 5 - 10 minutes test, where contents of previous labs will
be evaluated individually. Whenever the result of the validation test
is in the range 5 7, the grade of the corresponding lab will be
weighted 0.7. If the grade of the test is lower than 5, then the lab will
be weighted 0.5.
