The Master’s Academic Committee (CAM) will be in charge of assigning one teacher-tutor who will accompany each student throughout the duration of the Master’s. The academic tutor will be a university professor of the Master whose main function will be to support the training process of the students through tutorials.
The main functions to be performed by the academic tutor will be:
Since the Master is taught online, support for students will be provided through three channels using different Internet channels or tools:
As it is a training program in virtual mode, the teaching staff will maintain frequent contact with the students, at least once every fifteen days, for a correct follow-up of the work carried out. To the queries received from the students, the professors must respond within a maximum period of 48 hours.
Special attention will be paid when signs of inactivity are detected on the part of the students, such as the lack of participation or of delivering evaluable activities. In these cases, the various communication channels provided will be activated and the Master’s Directorate will be informed if no response is obtained from the students.
Given the forecast of having foreign students, especially from Latin American countries, the hours of attention in tutorials will be adjusted to reconcile them with the working day of the teaching staff and the students themselves. Thus, the teaching staff will reserve time slots with enough slack to carry out synchronous tutoring effectively with those students who are located in time zones other than Spanish.
