Teaching Methodologies and Assessment Criteria |
Theoretical-practical classes with oral presentation of the subjects using audiovisuals. Theoretical concepts are accompanied and illustrated with examples and demonstration sessions carried out by the lecturer with the collaboration of postgraduate students.
Tutorial laboratory classes involving the preparation, characterisation and analysis of samples with a view to interpreting different phenomena and preparing a report.
The final mark will be obtained from the average of the individual test (TA) and the laboratory work with a minimum weighting of 25%.
