COMPETENCIES 1.- COMPETENCIES Code Basic and General Competencies CG1 Know and understand the morphology, physiology, pathology and behavior of people, both healthy and sick, in the natural and social environment. That students have demonstrated to possess and understand knowledge in an area of CB1 study that starts from the base of general secondary education, and is usually found at a level that, although supported by advanced textbooks, also includes some aspects that imply knowledge from the forefront of your field of study. 3 Course Description / Academic year 2021-2022 CB2 That students know how to apply their knowledge to their work or vocation in a profes- sional way and possess the competencies that are usually demonstrated through the elaboration and defense of arguments and the resolution of problems within their area of study. CB3 That students have the ability to gather and interpret relevant data (usually within their area of study) to make judgments that include reflection on relevant issues of a social, scientific or ethical nature. CB4 That students can transmit information, ideas, problems and solutions to both special- ized and non-specialized audiences. CB5 That students have developed those learning skills necessary to undertake further stud- ies with a high degree of autonomy. Code Specific Competencies CE7 Identify anatomical structures as a knowledge base to establish dynamic relations with the functional organization. 2.- LEARNING OUTCOMES: Code Learning outcomes List the major macromolecules that make up human cells. Explain the structure and char- acteristics of the different macromolecules and associate each of them with the functions they perform in the cell. Describe the structure of a human cell. Explain the function of each cell organelle. Associate the function of each cell organelle with its structure. Ex- plain the structure of each one of the tissues that make up the human body. Explain the function of each of the tissues that make up the human body. Associate the structure with the function performed by each of the tissues that make up the human body. 5.

Teaching support materials will be employed (docu- ments handed out in class and digitized will be disseminated through the virtual campus). The practical classes will be developed in the laboratory for six days in sessions of 3 hours per day, divided into two blocks of 3 days each. Practical clas- -Once the student is assigned into a practice group, any changes will not ses be permitted except for just cause. Students are organized into working groups to carry out the practical classes proposed on the program of the subject, under the supervision of the responsible teacher of the practical part. Besides, the student has to analyze and discuss the results, translating them individually in a la- boratory notebook, which will be delivered only to the corresponding teacher, at the date and place indicated. Externships Students take assessment test under the professor´s supervision 5 Course Description / Academic year 2021-2022 6. ASSESMENT OF LEARNING 1.- CLASS ATTENDANCE: Attendance checks will be carried out and students with more than a 75% of attendance will be considered as it is said on “Assesment System and Criteria”. 100% attendance at practical classes is required to pass the subject. The student that miss a practical class, will have to take that class in another group presenting previously an official proof and filling the “recovery of attendance to practice” document signed by the teacher or teachers of that practical class. Not being contemplated the realization of practical classes between the Ordinary C. and the Extraordinary C., the non realization of these classes during the programmed months entails failing both calls. 2.- ASSESMENT SYSTEM AND CRITERIA: ORDINARY EXAMINATION (continuous assessment) Code Name Percentage Partial exams 60 Final exam 15 Practices 10 Activities along the course 10 Attendance and participation in class 5 MAKE UP EXAM/EXTRAORDINARY EXAMINATION Code Name Percentage Extraordinary exam 90 Practices 10 3.- DESCRIPTION OF ASSESSMENT CRITERIA: 6 Course Description / Academic year 2021-2022 Assessment Definition criteria Partial exams During the course two partial exams will be held on the dates indicated by the teacher and will comprise the part of the program also indicated by the teacher. Each partial exam will mean 30% of the final grade of continuous assessment and obtaining a minimum score of 5 in each exam will be compulsory to pass the course. Final exam At the end of the course will be held a final exam that will comprise the part of the program indicated by the teacher. Students must obtain in this exam a mini- mum score of 5 to pass the subject. Besides, students who have not passed the partial exams may take them along with the final exam and also must obtain a minimum score of 5 in each part of the course. Practices Practices will be held in two blocks of three days each and 3 hours per day. It is compulsory 100% attendance at practical classes and to pass the eval- uation system of each block to pass the course. Each block represents 50% of the grade of practices. Activities Throughout the course the professor will propose some activities to perform along the in class. course Extraordinary Students who do not pass the subject by the system of continuous assess- exam ment must take the extraordinary final exam, which includes the entire pro- gram of the subject. The student must obtain a minimum score of 5 to pass the subject. 7. COURSE PROGRAMME 7 Course Description / Academic year 2021-2022 THEORETICAL: 1.
