MethodologyToggle Navigation

Lectures: The contents of the syllabus will be explained. They will be completed with examples and clarifying exercises. In general, no distinction will be made between lectures and classroom practices. Some short videos will be used to illustrate concepts of the subject. In the virtual classroom of the course, students will be able to access complementary material of the course.



In general and whenever possible, each topic will be introduced with an exercise or problem from everyday life related to biomedical engineering studies. Students will try to solve it, individually or collectively. The aim will be to make them aware of the real difficulty of the problem they are facing and the need to introduce new concepts that can help them to solve it. The teacher will give them indications to be able to solve the obstacles that are presented to them. Subsequently, the students will try to apply the concepts explained in classes to the resolution of the problem posed.



Seminars:

The teacher will solve some exercises of special difficulty.

-Exercises and problems that the students will solve theoretically and/or using Mathematica will be proposed.

-Divided into groups, the students will solve exercises proposed by the teacher and will deliver the resolution at the end of the seminar.

-Presentation by the students of the different works and projects carried out individually or in groups.



Other applications of active methodologies:

-Problem-solving: it will consist of the resolution of exercises on the different topics by the students individually or in groups.

-Directed studies: they will consist of the realization by the student, individually or in group, of a practical study related to integral calculus, under the direction of the teacher. It may be necessary for the practical exposition of the work by the students

Assessment systemsToggle Navigation

  • Continuous Assessment System
  • Final Assessment System
  • Tools and qualification percentages:
    • Written test to be taken (%): 90
    • The sum of the work and tests carried out throughout the course. These tests can be written, practical work (exercises, cases, or problems), individual work, teamwork, and/or their exposition of work. (%): 10

Ordinary Call: Orientations and DisclaimerToggle Navigation

The continuous evaluation system is based on the following blocks and criteria:

Block 1: Active methodologies.

- Resolution of problems and proposed exercises.

- Delivery and/or exposure to the proposed work and projects individually or collectively

- Several written or oral tests of short duration, of theoretical and practical nature.

The result of this block of continuous evaluation will be 10% of the final grade.

Block 2: Global evaluation of the acquired knowledge.

- The weight of this block will be 90% of the final grade. The following three mid-term exams (non-eliminatory) will be carried out with the following contents and values:

-Methods of integration, Definite integral, Riemann integral, Applications of the definite integral, and parametric integrals (topics 1, 2, 3, and 4): 20%.

Curves and surfaces, double and triple integrals (topics 5, 6, and 7): 30%.

-Line integrals, surface integrals, and vector fields (topics 8, 9, and 10): 40%

The final grade of this part will be the average obtained from the three mid-term exams.

The final grade will be expressed numerically as the result, if applicable, of the weighted average between blocks I and II.



Resignation of continuous evaluation

Single final evaluation. Regardless of the above, and following the university regulations, students will be able to do a final evaluation through a single written exam with several theoretical and practical questions that guarantee that the student has acquired all the competencies described in this teaching guide. The score obtained in it will represent 100% of the final grade.

To do so, students must submit a written resignation of continuous assessment, for which they will have a period of 9 weeks from the beginning of the term, according to the academic calendar of the center.



Extraordinary Call: Orientations and DisclaimerToggle Navigation

There will be a written exam with several theoretical and practical questions to ensure that the student has acquired all the skills described in this teaching guide. The score obtained in this exam will represent 100% of the final grade.
