Teaching methodologies and assessment

The classes are theoretical and practical, being the oral presentation of the syllabus by the teacher with occasional recourse to the projection of complementary audiovisual elements and discussion with students. Several practical exercises are performed to consolidate knowledge.

Evaluation: - Continuous without Final Exam - Consists of solving proposed exercises throughout the semester resulting in a weighted final average evaluation with a total value of 20 Values. The student must compulsorily attend at least 75% of classes.

60% theoretical component (realization of 2 frequencies) 40% practical component (preparation of a practical work, a report and its presentation) All evaluation elements have a minimum grade of 8 values.
