Territorial Planning instruments respond to clear examples of global Territorial Planning processes. They are the last expression of the geographer's work and, therefore, must have great importance both within the processes of learning as well as subsequent learning related to the liberal profession.



The acquired skills will be necessary for the correct participation of the geographer in the plans and their processes derivatives; analysis, diagnosis, formulation of objectives, development of alternatives and management and execution of the same.



In this subject, the general framework of the different instruments is studied, as well as the planning panorama at which different scales. For each of these scales: international, national, autonomous community, regional, it is also done a general description of the different figures and then, from each class, a planning figure is taken to study it and analyze it thoroughly.

Those competencies (approved by ANECA) that in the context of this subject must be taken into account outline the learning outcomes of the students:



GENERAL SKILLS:



G004 - Know, understand and interpret the territory and interrelate the physical environment with the social and human sphere.



G005 - Explain the diversity of places, regions and locations and understand spatial relationships and processes. Interrelate phenomena at different territorial scales.



G006 - Use geographic information as a means for the description, analysis and interpretation and management of the territory. Express information cartographically, prepare and interpret statistical information. Use of ICTs in the analysis and communication of research results.



G007 - Make proposals for territorial planning and management, and location of services and activities.



G008 - Expose and transmit geographical knowledge and understand these problems in a multidimensional way.



SPECIFIC SKILLS of the module:



M02CM01- Ability to develop a work system, both individually and as a team, that enables the

autonomous learning and collaboration with professionals from other disciplines.



M02CM02- Ability to pose and solve problems through the application of knowledge

acquired both theoretical and technical.



M02CM03- Know the regulations, powers and legislation, the forms of processing and the procedures for work in the planning of the territory, as well as the hierarchy of the different administrative levels: the urban planning, sectoral planning, the protection of spaces, the prevention of natural risks and the territorial development in any of its areas.



M02CM04- Apply geographical knowledge to the analysis and diagnosis of the territory and its landscape.



M02CM05- Estimate the reception capacity of the territory and make proposals for the planning and location of uses and

activities.



M02CM06- Relate and synthesize transversal territorial information.



M02CM07- Build, propose and choose the necessary alternatives and proposals to alleviate the weak points and take advantage of territorial strengths.



Likewise, the third domain of the transversal competence "problem solving" will be acquired, within the transversal skills of the Geography and Territorial Planning degree. This competition consists of proposing and build team solutions to problems in various areas with a global vision.



Based on these skills, students must know, analyze and evaluate in a critical way and from a

territorial perspective the instruments of territorial planning so that they enable them to participate in teams multidisciplinary editors.



Specifically, the learning results that they must acquire are the following:



- Develops a system of work both individually and in teams that enables autonomous learning and

collaboration with professionals from other disciplines.



- Knows and critically assesses the territorial basis of basic regulations and territorial planning instruments, as well as their hierarchy and degree of connection.



- Relates and synthesizes sectoral territorial information.



- Selects and proposes alternatives and proposals for improvement of the analyzed instruments.



- Learn to search and select relevant information and to update yourself continuously.

• Continuous Assessment System
• Final Assessment System
• Tools and qualification percentages:
  • Written test to be taken (%): 35
  • Individual works (%): 55
  • Team projects (problem solving, project design)) (%): 10

CONTINUOUS ASSESSMENT:



The practical work to be delivered (65%) and the exam (35%) make up the continuous evaluation system.



A set of practical tests will allow the progress of each student to be assessed throughout the training period (it will account for 65% of the final grade) and will be complemented with an exam on the official date established for it (whose weight will be 35% of the final grade). To pass the subject it will be required to obtain an average grade of five points and in order to take the average between the practical work and the exam, it will be mandatory to obtain a minimum grade of four and a half points out of ten in both parts.



In any case, students will have the right to be evaluated using the FINAL EVALUATION SYSTEM, regardless of whether or not you have participated in the continuous evaluation system. In this case, the exam will be different from that established for the continuous evaluation system, in order to also evaluate the results of learning achieved through internships. To opt for the final evaluation system, students must submit in writing to the teaching staff responsible for the subject the waiver of continuous evaluation and your option to the final evaluation, for which they will have a maximum period of 9 weeks counting from the beginning of the semester (Regulations governing student evaluation in official undergraduate degrees, article 8).



*In accordance with the provisions of article 12 of the Student Evaluation Regulations in the degrees of grade: "In the case of continuous evaluation, if the weight of the final test is equal to or less than 40% of the grade of the subject, students may withdraw from the call within a period that, at least, will be up to one month before the end date of the teaching period of the corresponding subject."



*The notes of the practical work, as well as the exam (if passed) will be maintained for the call

extraordinary for the current academic year, but not for the following academic year.

Students who do not pass the subject in the ordinary call, regardless of the evaluation system chosen therein, will have the right to take the exams and evaluation activities that make up the final evaluation test of the extraordinary call. .

1.- The evaluation of the subjects in the extraordinary calls will be carried out exclusively through the final evaluation system.

2.- The final evaluation test of the extraordinary call will consist of as many exams and evaluation activities as are necessary to be able to evaluate and measure the defined learning results, in a manner comparable to how they were evaluated in the ordinary call. The positive results obtained by the students during the course may be preserved. In the case of having obtained negative results through the continuous evaluation carried out during the course, these results cannot be maintained for the extraordinary call, in which the students will be able to obtain 100% of the grade.



*Failure to take the final test will result in resignation from the evaluation call and your grade will be Not Presented.
