| Methodologies |
| Description | |
| Introductory activities | Course presentation at the classroom. First contact with the laboratory: groups, table assignment, additional equipment, etc. |
| Lecture | Lectures: theoretical contents combined with significant examples. |
| Problem solving, exercises | At the classroom: problem solving, test questions, partial exams examples and Student doubts. At home: exercise proposal at the Virtual Campus. Before each partial exam Students submit some exercises to be graded. |
| Laboratory practicals | Mandatory previous work before each laboratory session must be submitted at the Virtual Campus (moodle) to be graded. Mandatory-attendance sessions to the laboratory (two-person teams) where team work and active individual participation are assessed. A final report with the results obtained has to be provided. The abilities in applying methods and procedures to measure and understand results according to the theoretical foundations together with writing skills will be assessed. |
| Personal tuition | Individual or small group consultations at the professors office and/or at the Virtual Campus doubts forum. |
| Personalized attention |
| Description |
| Individual or small group consultations at the professor's offices. Apointment required by email from the students accounts "nom.cognom@estudiants.urv.cat". Interactions by sharing doubts and answer proposals at the Virtual Campus forum. Students can provide answers to other students questions with the professors supervision. |

Per aprovar l'assignatura és necessari obtenir un mínim de 4 a la qualificació de pràctiques de laboratori i un mínim de 4 a la qualificació conjunta de les proves mixtes, resolució de problemes i exercicis. La qualificació de pràctiques de laboratori té un pes del 30 % a les dues convocatòries. La segona convocatòria consistirà en una prova mixta (test i/o problemes) de tot el temari amb un pes del 70 %. No es farà cap prova específica per avaluar les pràctiques de laboratori a la segona convocatòria perquè han de ser realitzades obligatòriament durant el període d'avaluació continuada. Durant la realització de les proves els alumnes no podran fer servir cap dispositiu de comunicació i transmissió de dades. |
