Métodos de ensino e atividades de aprendizagem

The teaching methodology used, in the context of theoretical-practical classes, is based on the application of various active learning techniques aiming at greater involvement and autonomy of students in the construction of their knowledge, on the one hand. On the other hand, students work their resources in the process of critical reflection of the laws and rules of electrotechnics in the acquisition of competences during the exercise of learning activities. In laboratory classes, the student will have the opportunity to carry out laboratory work.

1- The continuous assessment regime
Students who intend to attend the UC under continuous assessment are subject to class attendance and are required to carry out all assessments of the two components:
- Theoretical-practical component (Tp) is evaluated by four tests (T). The component grade is given by the weighted average of the mini-tests and form according to:

Tp = 0.3 T1 + 0.4 T2 + 0.15 T3 + 0.15 T4;

- Laboratory component (L) with mandatory laboratory work. The evaluation of the laboratories is composed by the performance in class and the documents presented of the different laboratory tests that verify the concepts given in the chapter "Stationary Electric Current".

2- Assessment regime by exams with mandatory laboratory work
Students who choose the assessment system by exams will take a written test in which all the subjects corresponding to the Tp component will be evaluated. Examination tests are carried out at scheduled times at School level.
For any evaluation moment (mini tests or face-to-face exam), a student may be asked to take an oral test, to be arranged, to confirm the knowledge revealed in the summative assessments. The classification of the oral test replaces the classification of the evaluation moment in question. If the student does not attend the oral test, without due justification, the evaluation in question will be cancelled.

Fórmula de cálculo da classificação final

Final grade (NF) under continuous assessment of the subject is given by:
NF = 0.7 Tp + 0.3 L 

The final grade (NF) in assessment by exams will be the classification obtained at the time of the exam (NE) and the one obtained in the mandatory Laboratory component (L) or equivalent as;
NF = 0.7 NE + 0.7 L

Students who have obtained NF ≥9.5 values will be approved with the final classification (NF) determined by rounding up to units.

Observações

By the end of the second week of classes, students covered by special statutes (student worker, association manager, high-level athletes, etc.) must inform the unit course responsible for their specific situation and respective implications for the evaluations.
