2. Pre-Requisites
According to the Table of Prerequisites and Incompatibilities of the Medical Degree Curriculum, in order to pass MORPHOLOGY, STRUCTURE AND INTEGRATED FUNCTION OF THE HUMAN BODY it is necessary to have passed the first year subjects BIOLOGY, BIOCHEMISTRY I, HISTOLOGY, HUMAN ANATOMY I, HUMAN ANATOMY II and PHYSIOLOGY.
Timetables can be consulted at: https://www.uclm.es/es/ciudad-real/medicina/Grado/justificacion/planificaciondocente
3. Justification in the curriculum, relation to other subjects and to the profession
The subject "Integrated Morphology, Structure and Function of the Human Body" belongs to Module I (Morphology, Structure and Function of the Human Body) and to Subject 1.2 (Development, Structure and Function of the Healthy Human Body at Tissue, Organ and Systems Level) of the Teaching Plan of Medicine. It is a compulsory subject, with 33 ECTS and is taught throughout the second year.
The Study Plan of the Degree in Medicine is adapted to the requirements established in the Royal Decree 1393/2007, of October 29th (B. O. E. of October 30th, 2007), in the Order ECI/332/2008, of February 13th (B. O. E. of February 15th, 2008) and in the agreements adopted by the Medicine Degree Commission of May 28th, 2008 and June 30th, 2008. According to current legislation, the degree of Graduate in Medicine consists of 360 ECTS distributed over 6 academic years and structured in at least 5 modules, with defined competences, as the medical profession is a regulated profession. The five modules of common subjects are defined by the content of the subjects that include compulsory subjects for the Degree in Medicine. The sixth module has been defined according to the optional nature of the subjects that comprise it. In the first two years of the degree the necessary basic preclinical subjects are taught (Modules 1 and 2) that will provide students with the necessary elements for the foundation of the clinical knowledge and medical skills that they will acquire later (Modules 3, 4, 5 and 6), promoting the early insertion of students in health centers.
The subject therefore includes the study and knowledge of the different systems that make up the body and its functions in the state of health and is designed for medical students to acquire all those skills that enable them to understand the multiple forms of destabilization of the balance that we call health, to fall into the disease. But it also provides them with the skills they will need during their professional practice, not only to restore and maintain the balance through healing, but also to prevent and avoid pathological situations. And all this, from a basic approach, but in a context of cooperation and collaboration with professionals from different disciplines, within a scientific and clinical environment.
It is necessary to pass the subject of Integrated Morphology, Structure and Function of the Human Body to pass the following subjects:
- Human Pathology I (M3.2).
- Human Pathology II (M3.3)
- Pathologies of the Skin (M3.4)
- Ophthalmologic Pathologies (M3.5)
- Pathologies of the Ear, Nose and Throat (M3.6)
- Medical Semiology and Propaedeutics (M3.7)
- Maternal and Child Health, Reproduction and Gynecological Pathology (M3.8)
- Mental Health (M3.9)
- Physical Diagnostic and Therapeutic Procedures (M4.1)
- Pharmacological Diagnostic and Therapeutic Procedures (M4.2)
- Surgical Diagnostic and Therapeutic Procedures (M4.3)
- Anatomopathological Diagnostic and Therapeutic Procedures (M4.4)

According to art. 4 of the UCLM Student Evaluation Regulations, it must be provided to students who cannot regularly attend face-to-face training activities the passing of the subject, having the right (art. 12.2) to be globally graded, in 2 annual calls per subject , an ordinary and an extraordinary one (evaluating 100% of the competences).
Evaluation criteria for the final exam:
-
Continuous assessment:The evaluation will be carried out through a system of accumulation of points of the exams that will take place throughout the course. The course will be passed when a minimum of 50 points out of 100 is reached.
The evaluation of the course in the ordinary call is composed of two parts:
Theoretical part:
It will consist of multiple choice questions and short open answer questions that may include theoretical concepts, methods learned in practice, graphs studied in the different teaching activities, problems or clinical cases, etc. It will be weighted on the final grade.
It will have a weight on the final grade of 70% broken down into:
- continuous progress evaluation that will include one exam per module (M1: 5%, M2: 5%; M3: 5%, M4: 5%, M5: 5%, M6: 3%, M7: 3%, M8: 3%, M9: 3%, M10: 3%. Total 40%)
- Two compulsory final exams of modules 1-5 (20%) and modules 6-10 (10%).
Practical Part:
Evaluation of practices, presentations, problems, papers, participation and attitude.
It will have a weight on the final grade of 30% broken down into:
- PRACTICAL EXAMINATIONS IN DISSECTION ROOM in modules 2, 5, 7 and 10 (8%; 2% each).
- EVALUATION OF PRACTICES AND SEMINARS OF PHYSIOLOGY (8 %). There will be 2 exams of practicals and seminars in the ordinary final exam of each semester: semester 1, modules 1-5 (5%); semester 2, modules 6-10 (3%).
The presentation of the practice notebook is essential for both exams.
- PRACTICAL EXAMINATIONS FOR THE IDENTIFICATION AND DIAGNOSIS OF HISTOLOGICAL STRUCTURES (6%) in modules 1, 3, 5, 7 and 10 (Total 3%) and in the ordinary final exam of each semester (2% in the first semester and 1% in the second semester).
- PARTICIPATION AND ATTITUDE (8%).
In order to pass the course it will be mandatory to pass 50% of the theoretical part and also of the practical part, which represents at least 3.5 points in the theoretical part and at least 1.5 points in the practical part of the 10 total points of the course.
Students who do not pass the theoretical part may recover this part in the theoretical exam of the extraordinary exam.
Students who do NOT pass the practical part may recover the practical exams in the extraordinary exam. It is a fundamental requirement to have taken the practical part in order to be able to take this exam.
The score obtained in the part passed, theoretical or practical, will be kept for the exams specified below
TYPE/NUMBER OF EXAM SESSIONS:
Students enrolled for the first time in a subject have two convocations during the academic year:
1. Ordinary on-site call: It includes the continuous evaluation of all theoretical and practical activities reflected in the checkerboard complying with the conditions described in the teaching guide of the subject and the minimum attendance requirements to pass the subject.
2. Extraordinary call: It includes the evaluation of only the failed part of the course in the ordinary call. It will consist of a theoretical exam and/or practical exam, the rest of the marks of the practical part will be the obtained during the course in reports, seminars, exhibitions, works, participation and attitude.
In the case of failing the course the first time it is taken, the options for the following academic year will be two of the following three options:
1. Ordinary call: within this call, two modalities can be chosen:
a. Classroom mode: It includes the continuous evaluation of all theoretical and practical activities reflected in the checkerboard, complying with the conditions described in the teaching guide of the subject, as if taking the subject for the first time and the grades obtained in the previous course will not be taken into account.
b. Non-attendance mode: It includes the evaluation of only the failed part of the subject in the previous course with a theoretical exam and/or practical exam per semester on the same date as the final exam of each semester. The marks for practical exams other than the practical exam will be those kept from the previous course. This modality can only be chosen in the case of having taken the subject in the ordinary on-site exam in the previous academic year.
2. Extraordinary call: It includes the evaluation of only the failed part of the subject in the ordinary call either of the current academic year, if the student has chosen the ordinary on-site call, or of the previous academic year, in the rest of the cases. It will consist of a theoretical exam and/or a practical exam, the rest of the marks of the practical part will be those of the current or previous year. In the case of not having taken the ordinary convocation in the current or previous academic year, the grades of previous convocations will not be taken into account since only one course will be kept.
3. Special finalization call: It includes the evaluation of only the failed part of the subject in the previous academic year. This call can only be requested in the case of key subjects. It will consist of a theoretical exam and/or practical exam, the rest of the marks of the practical part will be those of the previous course. In the case of not having taken the ordinary on-site exam in the current or previous course, the grades of previous exams will not be taken into account, since only one course will be kept.
These conditions will only be maintained in the academic year consecutive to the ordinary on-site exam of a subject. The grade of the practical or theoretical part passed will only be kept if the minimum attendance requirements to pass the subject described in the electronic guide have been met.
In case the subject has not been passed in the second academic year, in the third and successive odd numbered years of enrollment, the same biannual cycle criteria described for the first and second year of enrollment will be followed.
ORDINARY ON-SITE CALL:
Theoretical evaluation:
70% distributed in:
- 50% module exams
- 20% final semester exams
To pass the course it will be necessary to obtain half of the 70%, which represents at least 3.5 points in the theoretical part of the 10 total points of the course and to fulfill the requirements of the section -Evaluation criteria-.
Evaluation of practices, presentations, problems, work, participation and attitude:
30% valued jointly as follows:
- Practical exams at the end of the semester: 15%.
- Presentations, papers and practicals: 10%.
- Participation and attitude: 5%.
To pass the course it will be necessary to obtain half of the 30%, which represents at least 1.5 points in the practical part of the 10 total points of the course and to fulfill the requirements of the section -Evaluation criteria- that appears in the electronic guide.
ORDINARY NON-ATTENDANCE EXAM:
Theoretical evaluation: exam with a weight of 70%. To pass the course it will be necessary to obtain half of the 70%, which represents at least 3.5 points in the theoretical part of the 10 total points of the course and meet the requirements of the section -Evaluation criteria-.
In case of having passed the theoretical part in the previous course, the grade obtained in this last call will be maintained.
Practical evaluation: to pass the course it will be necessary to obtain half of the 30%, which represents at least 1.5 points in the practical part of the 10 total points of the course and to fulfill the requirements of the section -Evaluation criteria-.
There will be a practical exam of the previous ordinary classroom exam, either from the current or the previous year. -
Non-continuous evaluation:70% final test
30% internships: completion of internships 22% and participation 8%.
Specifications for the resit/retake exam:
Students who have not reached the minimum score (50 points) in the ordinary exam must be re-evaluated in the extraordinary exam.
Specifications for the second resit / retake exam:
It will follow the same criteria as for the extraordinary call and may be used by students who are in the cases indicated in the Student Evaluation Regulations in force.
