In each section, you must obtain a minimum grade of 4/10. The student cannot pass the course if he/she does not reach this minimum grade in each evaluation element. To pass the course, the student must obtain an average of 5/10.
During the course, the following evaluable activities will be carried out:
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.
The corrections and results of the works and exams will be delivered to the student through the UAB mail service or the Moodle, and any revision will be by virtual means or during the established tutorial hours of the teacher.
In case of partial failure of the tasks, the student may only opt for the retake of 2 of the evaluation items, on the date set by the Faculty, providing that has obtained a minimum average of 3/10. The maximum grade in the retake exams and tasks is a 5/10.
The fact that the student delivers one of the tasks or present one of the written tests, will consist of an on-site event. Therefore, only the student who has not made any evaluation test during the course may be considered as "non evaluable."
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.
