It works through different active teaching methodologies and project-based learning. Although there are Master
Classes, the demonstrative and practical ones predominate. These are carried out by the students individually with the
continuous supervision of the teacher.
At certain moments of the syllabus, learning based on problems and exercises is applied, so that the student has to
face situations that make him leave his comfort zone. In this process, the student has to think about solving more
complex situations by merging various techniques and applying the theory.
At the beginning of each session, any doubts that resulted from the previous practice or session are resolved.
Afterwards, the theoretical-practical part is discussed so that students have the knowledge and tools necessary to
develop the approaches and achieve the new goals.
Didactic activities are offered with specific audiovisual material to become familiar with the technical vocabulary and
develop their professional growth through practice and experience.
At the beginning of the course, the exercises that make up the continuous assessment of the entire semester and the
route to follow to achieve the purpose of the subject are presented.

of the different activities and the average mark exceeds 5.
In the event that the student does not pass the ordinary call, he / she will be entitled to an Extraordinary Call in July
and must submit those internships with a grade below 4.
The categorization of the evaluation activities of the subject is as follows: -
