In addition, other teaching materials will be included in the Moodle platform that will allow dedicating some of the classes to interact with students, posing questions that allow relating concepts. All these training activities will be supported by tutorials from teachers via videoconference.

4.2. Learning tasks

Master class: 10 hours Problema and case solving: 5 hours Teaching work: 23 hours
