- Use and apply ICTs in academic and professional spheres.
- Communicate in a foreign language.
- Express ideas in writing clearly and correctly, displaying a command of terms and expressions that are specific to the field of software development, for both academic and professional contexts.
- Adapt to new software development technologies and to future environments, updating professional skills.
- Identify the features of different types of organizations and the role played in them by ICTs.
- Evaluate software solutions and draw up proposals for development projects, taking into account the resources, the available alternatives and the market conditions.
- Understand and use the scientific bases of software development to analyse each problem at the appropriate level of abstraction and apply the skills and knowledge acquired in order to solve them.
- Identify the structural elements and operational principles of a computer.
- Understand the fundamentals of operating systems and computer networks so as to design and develop solutions that take into account each platform's specific features, available and shared resources, and the system's security.
- Design and build computer applications using development, integration and reuse techniques.
- Apply specific software engineering techniques to the different stages of a project's life cycle.
- Apply specific data processing, storage and administration techniques.
- Propose and evaluate different technological alternatives for solving a specific software development problem.
- Develop cross-platform applications.
- Design people-centric solutions.
- Conduct and submit a project in the field of software development and defend it before a panel of experts.
- A document describing the goals, planning, execution and results of the project. This document is prepared during the entire semester.
- A presentation of the project in video format that summarizes the most relevant aspects about the project.
- In most cases, there will also be a product, such as an application, tool or service developed by the student.
The assessment process is based on students' own work and the assumption that this work is original and has been carried out by them.
In assessment activities, the following irregular behaviours, among others, may have serious academic and disciplinary consequences: someone else being involved in carrying out the student's assessment test or activity, or the work being not entirely original; copying another's work or committing plagiarism; attempting to cheat to obtain better academic results; collaborating in, covering up or encouraging copying; or using unauthorized material, software or devices during assessment.
If students are caught engaging in any of these irregular behaviours, they may receive a fail mark (D/0) for the assessable activities set out in the course plan (including the final tests) or in the final mark for the course. This could be because they have used unauthorized materials, software or devices (e.g. social networking sites or internet search engines) during the tests, because they have copied text fragments from an external source (internet, notes, books, articles, other student's projects or activities, etc.) without correctly citing the source, or because they have engaged in any other irregular conduct.
In accordance with the UOC's academic regulations , irregular conduct during assessment, besides leading to a failing mark for the course, may be grounds for disciplinary proceedings and, where appropriate, the corresponding punishment, as established in the UOC's coexistence regulations.
In its assessment process, the UOC reserves the right to:
- Ask the student to provide proof of their identity, as established in the university's academic regulations.
- Request that students provide evidence of the authorship of their work, throughout the assessment process, both in continuous and final assessment, by means of an oral test or by whatever other synchronous or asynchronous means the UOC specifies. These means will check students' knowledge and competencies to verify authorship of their work, and under no circumstances will they constitute a second assessment. If it is not possible to guarantee the student's authorship, they will receive a D grade in the case of continuous assessment or a Fail in the case of final assessment.
For this purpose, the UOC may require that students use a microphone, webcam or other devices during the assessment process, in which case it will be the student's responsibility to check that such devices are working correctly.

You can only pass the course if you participate in and pass the continuous assessment. Your final mark for the course will be the mark you received in the continuous assessment. |
