Assesssment methods and criteria:
Classification Type: Quantitativa (0-20)
Evaluation Methodology:
Teaching methodologies: - Expository classes; - Resolution of exercises; - Carrying out simulation and laboratory work; The application hours will be achieved through practical and laboratory teaching. Type of Classification: Quantitative (0-20) Assessment Methodology: Frequencies: The Mid-term examsare intended to evaluate the two main parts of the subject, the Technical Rules for Low Voltage Electrical Installations (RTIEBT) and the ITED Telecommunications component, including an introduction to Optical Fiber. Laboratory work: Laboratory work is assessed by report and (short) discussion in class. They allow the student to develop project, writing, results presentation, information sorting, oral communication and teamwork skills. Frequencies/Exam: 60%; Classes and Laboratory projects: 40%.
