Methodology

The course consists of 6 credits, distributed in 4.5 theoretical and 1.5 practical credits. The whole-class theoretical lessons include the description of basic concepts and methods. The small-group practical sessions are devoted to the solution of problems and applications. Finally, teacher-assisted tutoring is available for students all along the semester in order to solve possible queries and questions arising in the study of the subject. The following table shows the distribution of the activities in the course:
 

Methodology - Activity  On-site hours  Off-site hours
A-1: Theoretical lessons 41  
A-2: Practical lessons 15  
A-3: Discussion 4  
A-6: Individual study    80
A-7: Exams and assessment 4  
A-8: Individual tutoring  10  
     
 TOTAL 70 80

Evaluation

 

Learning outcome Assessment Weight(%) Resit assessment
R1, R2, R3, R4, R5. ENAEE-1 Long-answer exam questions 85%  Yes
R1, R2, R3, R4, R5. ENAEE-1 Individual work 15%  Yes

 

For assessment purposes, the course is divided into three parts:

  • Part A (related to lessons 1, 2 and 3) is worth 45%.
  • Part B (related to lessons 4 and 5) is worth 40%.
  • Individual coursework 15%.

In order to pass the subject the weighted mark of all three parts is not less than 5.
