Assessment
The evaluation of the course will be continuous and will include both the various tests and the papers / exercises / comments submitted throughout the semester and presented orally in class. It will include at least two exams, one of them partial and one of synthesis (50%), an oral test (25%) and the delivery of tasks done at home and / or classroom activities (25%).
In order to participate in the reassessment, the student must have been previously assessed in a set of activities the weight of which is equivalent to a minimum of 2/3 of the total grade. Only students who have failed and have at least an average final grade of 3.5 will have the right to reassessment. Reassessment. will consist of a final summary examination. Oral presentation, homework related to daily teaching activity and the submission of papers are excluded from reassessment.
A student who has completed less than 2/3 of the assessment activities will be considered 'NOT EVALUABLE'.
At the time of each evaluation activity, the student body will be informed of the procedure and date of review of the grades.
In the event of a student committing any irregularity that may lead to a significant variation in the grade awarded to an assessment activity, the student will be given a zero for this activity, regardless of any disciplinary process that may take place. In the event of several irregularities in assessment activities of the same subject, the student will be given a zero as the final grade for this subject.
In the event that tests or exams cannot be taken onsite, they will be adapted to an online format made available through the UAB’s virtual tools (original weighting will be maintained). Homework, activities and class participation will be carried out through forums, wikis and/or discussion on Teams, etc. Lecturers will ensure that students are able to access these virtual tools, or will offer them feasible alternatives.
Plagiarism: Total and partial plagiarism of any of the exercises will automatically be considered a FAILED (0) of the plagiarized exercise. Plagiarism is copying from unidentified sources, be it a single phrase or more, passing it off as one's own production (this includes copying phrases or fragments from the Internet and adding them without modification to the text presented as one's own), and it is a serious offence.
Special Cases: French-speaking students must meet the same evaluation conditions as other students. Responsibility for monitoring training and evaluation activities rests solely with the student.
