recommendations
Attend the classes and participate actively.
Focus efforts on understanding the content of the subject.
Have in mind the knowledge acquired from other subjects within the module of the foundations of sports management, in order to relate it to the topics covered in the current subject and therefore gain a comprehensive and informed knowledge.
Use the established timetable, the Virtual Campus or email to consult and share any doubts with the teacher.
Consult the recommended bibliography in each subject and not limit oneself to only studying notes taken in class. The presentation slides are a guide to the subject, they are not the notes and it is not the unique content.
In written work and tests marks will be subtracted from the final mark for: a) 0.2 for lack of accents, b) 0.5 for slight misspellings, and c) 1 for serious spelling mistakes.
Didactic
materials
The didactics materials which will be used in this subject to facilitate the acquisition of skills are: - Power Point presentations. The teacher will use a guide (not the notes for the subject). The
student should elaborate their own notes using all of the didactic materials that are described here.
- Scientific articles, which will be shared on the Virtual Campus and will be related to each of the subjects. Forums and social networks (Twitter) will be used to ask questions for reflection and practical application of each of the articles.
- Supporting documents, which will also be shared on the Virtual Campus or can be requested by students who search for them via information and communication technologies.
