The courses will be offered based on the schedule that has already been prepared and published, in the designated rooms, days and hours.
Due to the need to implement distancing measures, the capacity of each room / laboratory can not exceed 50% of the standard seats. For example, a classroom of 64 seats cannot accommodate more than 32 students.
Courses in which the enrolled students do not exceed 50% of the normal capacity of the designated room / laboratory, will be offered in full physical presence according to the schedule.
Courses in which the enrolled students exceed 50% of the normal capacity of the designated room / laboratory, will be offered with a combination of physical and distance learning (blended learning), as follows:
- The audience (enrolled students) will be divided into two equal groups, in alphabetical order (Group 1: Surnames from A-M, Group 2: Surnames from N-Ω). Each group will attend with physical presence each lesson / workshop on a weekly basis, in the designated space, day / hour, however in half duration. The other team will attend the other half of the course.
- The "lost" teaching / learning time should be "covered" in each lesson / laboratory by adding a distance teaching / learning activity, lasting about 60 minutes, common to both groups. Distance activity does not involve extra lecturing, but the use of alternative forms of teaching / learning.
- This activity will be clearly defined (day / hour) in the syllabus. Its content will be determined by each teacher, in the context of the adjustment that is necessary to be made in relation to the course in full physical presence. Each teacher has the flexibility and responsibility to decide how to organize his / her lesson based on the above parameters.
The courses schedule clarifies which courses are offered with a full physical presence and which courses are offered with blended learning. At the same time, the tables show the exact day/hour in which distance learning will take place.
