Methodology and grading

Methodology

Case studies: Learning through the analysis of actual or simulated cases in order to interpret and resolve them by employing various alternative solution procedures.
Cooperative learning: Develop active learning through cooperative working strategies among students and promote shared responsibility to reach group goals.
Lecture: Pass on knowledge and activate cognitive processes in students, encouraging their participation.
Problem-based learning: Develop active learning strategies through problem solving that promote thinking, experimentation, and decision making in the student.
Solving exercises and problems: Exercise, test, and apply previous knowledge through routine repetition.

Grading

- EL EXAMEN ESTARÁ COMPUESTO POR DOS PARTES INDEPENDIENTES, UNA CORRESPONDIENTE A LA PARTE DE ELASTICIDAD Y OTRA PARA LA PARTE DE TEORÍA DE ESTRUCTURAS.
- PARA APROBAR SE DEBERÁ APROBAR CADA UNA DE LAS DOS PARTES Y OBTENER MÁS DE UN 4,5 EN EL TRABAJO DE PRÁCTICAS.
