Teaching Methods
Methodologies aim to produce learning and form autonomous students in the formative processes. Strategies of transmission of content are associated with discussion and analysis of proposed issues, articulating the knowledge of anatomy and physiology with its clinical and conceptual for nursing. Strategies with skills development include the production of texts, presentations and classroom discussions. The students orientation is focused on analyzing problem situations proposed. Skills of writing and speaking are developed in parallel with the acquisition of knowledge.
Assessment
Article 110 of the Academic Regulations defines the rules for student assessment.
In continuous assessment: 2 individual theoretical tests (PT), lasting 100 minutes (80%), carried out in person, via the MOODLE platform and 2 moments of theoretical-practical performance (20%). The theoretical-practical performance (TP) is assessed using a recording grid of which the students have prior knowledge. The final grade is obtained from the weighted average of the marks obtained in each of the above tests. The minimum pass mark is 9.5.
In the final assessment system, points 6, 11 and 12 of article 110 of the Academic Regulations will be taken into account, and will take place during the established final assessment period. In this sense, the student can opt for the final assessment regime (individual test, 120 min).
