Computer practice: Use of structure software and reaction simulation.



Theoretical or exposition classes (Minimum: 2.5 C): Presentation in the classroom of the conceptual contents of the subject, with student participation in occasional debates about them. They will allow the acquisition of related competencies, fundamentally with knowledge and occasionally, with skills and abilities. During the theoretical sessions, the main objectives of the topic will be clearly stated, the content will be developed and the material necessary for their understanding will be made available to students. Autonomous work will be promoted through the use of computer and bibliographic resources that help the student understand the different aspects of the subject.



Classroom practices (Minimum: 1.0 C): Activities in the classroom to resolve issues and problems that will be carried out in a participatory and dynamic way. Students will be provided with lists of problems and exercises that they will develop individually or in groups. They will allow you to acquire skills related to knowledge related to Chemistry and skills.



Seminars (Maximum: 1.5 C): Collective activities in which tasks previously assigned to students will be developed. They will consist of the presentation and discussion of topics in which Chemistry is related to other areas of knowledge related to the theoretical contents.

Students will be provided with problems and exercises that they will develop individually or in groups, which will allow them to deepen their theoretical knowledge of the subject and relate Chemistry to other related areas. The formulation of questions and open discussion will be encouraged, so that the student acquires skills related to oral communication, the ability to synthesize and teamwork.



Computer practice: Use of basic software for structures and reaction simulation.



Laboratory practices: Experimental laboratory work leading to the acquisition of basic knowledge and skills related to the experimental techniques used in Chemistry. They will be held after a series of short seminars that serve as an introduction to their preparation.

For the evaluation of the subject, the following will be taken into account:

Exercises carried out in classroom practices and seminars (minimum 20%)

Final theoretical-practical exam (maximum 80%)

In the laboratory: glasses, gown, gloves, spatula, notebook.
