III. Methodology
This Teaching Plan adopts different teaching methods. The professor will offer lectures and supervision to achieve the aforementioned objectives. Each presentation presumes student participation, hence the need to carry out mandatory readings and prepare questions to clear up doubts. Following the method of independent work, students must develop supervised tasks.
The professor might resort to recorded video lessons when needed. These videos must not be shared in any way or by any means without the author’s authorization.
Among other information technologies, this course resorts to GSuite (including Google Classroom, Google forms etc.) and SIGAA.
In the written activities, in addition to the conceptual foundation, the following items will be evaluated: argumentative consistency, thematic progression, coherence, objectivity, clarity, conciseness, cohesion and grammatical correction. Content defects (decontextualization, generalization, simplism, obviousness, copying, tautology and contradiction), as well as language and style vices (colloquialism, barbarism, redundancy and stereotyped language) may be penalized.
Participation is part of the educational process. Thus, the academic-professional attitude – punctuality, attendance, discipline, respect for colleagues and the teacher – is a fundamental requirement for every student. Pedagogical activities can be used so that students with a grade below average can increase their performance. In this sense, extra activities may be required. Students are responsible for attending classes and monitoring their own absences and grades.
