  Description
Lecturing Exposition of the ideas, concepts, technics and algorithms related to the thematic units of the course. With this methodology we will work the competences CT2, CT3, CG3, CG4, CE11, CE17, CE18 and CE19.
Problem solving Resolution in the classroom by the professor of problems and exercises related with the contents of the master lessons. With this methodology students work the competences CG3, CG4, CE11, CE17, CE18 and CE19.
Autonomous problem solving Completion and delivery, more or less weekly, of online activities. These are self-evaluation tests and small tasks or problems to be carried out before or after the practical classes. It also includes the delivery of a small basic network program, as a training for the final network program. With this methodology we will work the competencies CG4, CG6, CG9, CE11, CE17, CE18, CE19, CT2, CT3, CT4
Gamification In the virtual classroom, a gamification system will be used that includes activity points, mechanics and gamification elements to encourage the performance of online graded activities and to participate in a meaningful way in help forums. This will allow the student to obtain rewards to be used in the exams or in the continuous evaluation.

The discussion forums will be the preferred way of answering questions and doubts related to the contents of the subject. The gamification will encourage peer support and collaborative resolution of doubts in the forums. Besides contributing to the increase of motivation, with this methodology we will also work on the competences CG9, CT3 and CT4
Laboratory practical Networking laboratory practices, using various network tools and utilities (GNS3, WireShark, ping, traceroute, dig, etc.) to reinforce the contents learnt in the lecturing classes. With this methodology, the competencies CG1, CG9, CE17 and CE19 are worked on.
Practices through ICT The goal is to develop a network program in an autonomous and individual way. There will be several sessions to explain related programming concepts (sockets, network utilities), to explain in detail the practice and its implementation, and also to solve doubts with the teacher, and to test and debug the program in the laboratory where it will be tested and evaluated. With this methodology we work with the competencies CG1, CG6, CG9, CE11, CE17 and CE19.
