LEARNING OUTCOMES

Students must learn methodologies to understand and solve problems concerning physical and biophysical applications. It will bring students to face the problems in quantitative solution.

(KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING) (Dublin): 2

AIMS AND LEARNING OUTCOMES

The student must learn the main elements of mechanics, thermodynamics, and thermodynamics, electricity, wave phenomena and light, atomic and nuclear physics, with particular reference to topics of greatest importance for students to study courses in Life Sciences.

Students will learn how to relate the topics of lectures on the AulaWeb site with the ability to solve simple physical exercises. For this purpose, they are provided numerous application examples and exercises. They will be able to know how to apply mathematical and geometric knowledge to the proposed physical problems.

The student will have to overcome the self-assessment tests in order to achieve the "badge" that allows you to take the examination.

Only the ability to correctly interpret the claims submitted in the form of numerical exercises and / or quizzes can assure the student that you understand the topics of lectures. The student must acquire the ability to understand and correlate rather than relying on mnemonic acquisition only.

TEACHING METHODS

The course is on-line; AulaWeb site contains the lessons and teaching slides, exercises, and self-assessment tests. The teacher also takes lessons in streaming mainly focused on solving exercises that are recorded and remain on the site for future reference.

Exercises and self-evaluation tests are published on the website AulaWeb

Three lessons in streaming were presented , each of about two hours. Topics on solving  physical exercises were selected. Lessons streaming are recorded and remain available on the website.

The students are awarded a badge after completing the vision of teaching units and completed all the self-assessment tests.

SYLLABUS/CONTENT

PROGRAM / CONTENTS
        
The course is divided into eight modules, each of which contains teaching units consist of videolessons, from transparencies files and exercises.

At the end of each teaching unit is a self-assessment test, which has the purpose of reinforcing the key concepts treated by reflection on the content and facilitate the preparation of the final examination in the presence.
