The methodology used in this course is mainly based on master theoretical classes. In the lectures the theoretical contents are taught during the course. In these classes, discussions are promoted about specific themes and the problems proposed during the course are solved. Also new exercises are suggested to the students and they can solve them out of the class time. The main goal of these exercises is to reinforce the theoretical concepts in order to apply them in practice. These exercises are partially or totally solved in posterior classes, so the students can check their improvement. There are also some classes dedicated only to work and find the correct answers to proposed exercises where the students are actively involved in the problems resolution.
Different labs are performed during the course, where the students apply the knowledge acquired in the lectures. During the classes the teachers promote the teamwork, the critical spirit and the troubleshooting capacity in a methodological way.
The resolution of the student questions is performed by different ways: during the class time, during the tuition time, by email or by forums in eStudy.
The course evaluation is performed with the following methods:
A. Exams
C. Quizzes
J. Classroom participation
L. Laboratory participation
The subject is divided in two semesters and there is an exam for each semester. The final grade is obtained by the arithmetic average between both semesters, only if the student has passed each semester. These exams let the teacher evaluate the written communication and the capacity for analysis and synthesis of the learned knowledge in the networking area. Also the knowledge on the subject and the capacity to apply the knowledge to the proposed exercises are evaluated.
Another important point in the subject evaluation is related to the labs. The grades are rounded up depending on class and laboratory participation. Continuous assessment consists on hands-on activities, exercises, tests, presentations and challenges.
