The subject will be taught according to the following class structure:



Master class:



The teacher will present the theoretical program in class so that the student, together with the teaching materials indicated in this guide, can obtain a vision of the proposed contents.



Practical/Seminars:

Students must reflect and solve a practical case that the teacher has given them before or during the same class, identifying the question raised, as well as the relevant data and the legal framework for the solution that is most appropriate. The purpose is to apply the acquired theoretical foundations to an assumption of concrete fact and to do it by means of a juridical argumentation.



These classes reinforce specific issues of the subject. They will be preceded by a work on the part of the student of the material that the teacher has indicated previously and will also develop the transversal competences proposed in the subject.

• Continuous Assessment System
• Final Assessment System
• Tools and qualification percentages:
  • Written test to be taken (%): 80
  • Realization of Practical Work (exercises, cases or problems) (%): 20

The teaching evaluation system will be continuous. On the one hand, evaluation will be continued, students will be able to obtain 20% of qualification through that system, on the other hand, the end-of-term test, in which case the teacher will evaluate 80% of the qualification.



Continued evaluation shall be carried out through the decisions of practical cases, at the same time as the magistrate schools are progressing, the teacher shall present practical cases in the schools, which shall be grouped, and shall be qualified at the same time.

On the other hand, there will be a written termination test, allowing for 80% of the qualification. The student will have to answer some of the questions that need to be developed.

To pass the instruction through a continuous evaluation system, the student will have to draw five out of ten points, but four of those five points will have to be drawn from that final written test. In other words, the student to pass the instruction will need to pass the final written test (with eight points), at least four points.



However, the student will have the right to pass 100% of the evaluation qualification by writing an end-of-term test, which he assigns to the teacher before the eighth week of school, in order to reach the teacher's decision through the electronic message. In that case, the final test will have development questions and practical cases to solve. The professor will determine the criteria mentioned in the test.

In the extraordinary call, all students will be entitled to a 100% examination.
