In the event that attendance to classes become legally entirely or partially limited, the measures set on place will be:
1. To guarantee the necessary means, namely personal computer or internet access, to every enrolled student so they can follow the distance learning classes, appropriately. Therefore, to apply the appropriate solutions, any student who does not have any of these means should inform the course coordinator.
2. To inform students of the different measures adopted, the department will use the platform, Faitic.
3. On top of that, in the case of cancelation of face-to-face classes, the teaching guide will show the next modifications:
A. Competences. They will not be modified.
B. Learning outcomes. They will not be modified.
C. Contents. They will not be modified.
D. Planning. It will not be modified.
E. Methodology. It will be modified:
Lecturing and Problem solving. They will require the employment of electronic means (virtual classroom of the Remote Campus or others).
Laboratory Practices. The department will provide every student access to dynamic simulation software, so that they can carry out the practices remotely instead of from the Mechanical Engineering laboratory. The professor will supervise these practices using electronic means (virtual classroom of the Remote Campus or others).
F. Tutoring Lessons. They will be carried out by previously arranged electronic means.
G. Assessment. Assessment methodologies/test will not be modified: Laboratory practical and Essay questions exam. Description, qualification, and competences, they will not be modified. All exams will use electronic means (virtual classroom of the Remote Campus or others); the department will publish in advance the specific rules for each test in the platform, Faitic. According to attendance at the virtual practice sessions, the professor will compute and validate each practice attendance on virtual classroom of the Remote Campus.
Partial tests for the evaluation of specific contests of the subject can be proposed. Once again, the professor will publish in advance the rules concerning each test in the platform, Faitic.
H. Bibliography. Besides the bibliographical references found in this guide, the documentation provided at Faitic, and the problem bulletins and previous exams, the professor might facilitate additional notes, videos, web-references, and others, so that students can appropriately follow the course during the non-face-to-face classes.
This guide can be modified following Rectoral rules. |
