conjunto
LG: large group (100 students).
SL: seminar/Laboratory (clinical practice = 7 students; field or laboratory training = 15;
computer-aided lessons = 30, problem-based lessons or seminars or case studies = 40).
PT: programmed tutoring sessions (teacher monitoring, ECTS tutorial activities).
PS: personal study, individual or group work, reading of bibliography.
Metodologías docentes*
1. Lectures and participatory classes. Classroom training activities for the entire group.
The teacher will present concepts, procedures and applications relating to various
topics. The concepts and procedures will be presented in the classroom, using video
projector presentations.
2. Lab. Classroom activities carried out in the laboratories.
3. Directed work. Professor performs activities of direction and guidance of the
students.
4. Non-contact work. Activities of the student without the presence of the teacher.
Resultados de aprendizaje*
The student should be able to use properly the specific terminology of Nosology and
to identify the main syndromes of the Physiopathology.
Sistemas de evaluación*
Type of examination:
Evaluation of the practical training
After the practical training period all students must submit a written work (practice
report). This work will require the interpretation and discussion of the results of the
practices, chosen by the student, accompanied by the appropriate literature review,
according to the script that will be provided through the virtual campus. The works will
be delivered through the virtual campus, on dates to be announced, and before the
completion of the theoretical examination of the subject. Non-delivery of these jobs or
presentation outside the deadlines will score zero points in the practical test. Nonattendance to two practice sessions is allowed.
Theoretical final examination
The exam will be written, performed individually and in limited time (depending on the
number of items, but is estimated at about three hours). The questions will be short,
may or may not be alternated with single or multiple choice questions. The teacher
responsible for delivering the theoretical part is also in charge of the planning of
questions, correction and subsequent revision.
Evaluation criteria:
The assessment test is global, by the sum of the partial scores on each of the
questions. Each question is scored from zero (lowest score) to one point (if the
answer is right), with intermediate scores of 0.25, 0.50 and 0.75 points, depending on
the degree of success. In the multiple choice questions, a wrong answer will invalidate
5
a correct answer; although the final grade for each question can not be less than zero
(no negative scores).
In the final note, the result obtained in the practice report will have a weighting of
25% and the theoretical test, a 75%, although it must obtained a minimum score of 5
points on each.
