Assessment

It is essential to pass the TFG to submit the aforementioned documents (introduction and final written work) and make the oral presentation within the established deadlines, because the opposite implies a "non-evaluable". The enrolled student who does not present the TFG in the month of June, will be able to present it in a call in January of the following academic year. In this case, you will have to re-enroll in the subject.

The public presentation and exhibition is compulsory and will consist of the oral defense of the TFG before a court, which will be part of who will tutor the work that he must first give his approval.

TFG can not be done in a group since the academic norms of the UAB establish in its article 119.4. that "the evaluation of the work will always be individual, although the activity has been elaborated collectively". Therefore, the presentation and defense of the will always be individual.

The TFG does not have a re-evaluation, in accordance with current regulations. There is only one call.

The TFG is excluded from the compensation compensation mechanism as specified in article 122 of the Academic Regulations of the UAB. The evaluation by compensation is a mechanism that allows the compensation of qualifications between subjects of a degree and that is regulated in the Normativa acadèmica de la UAB.

In accordance with article 116 of the "Academic Regulations" approved and modified by the Governing Council of the UAB on March 19, 2015, the teaching guide must establish the criteria for assigning a non-evaluable one. In the case of the TFG, the enrolled students who have not given the teaching staff any kind of learning evidence during the course are considered "non-evaluable". Therefore, if, for example, a student enrolls and gives teachers related to this subject any learning evidence related to the TFG (eg in February the TFG Introduction) but does not deliver the global text of the TFG, yes which will be considered evaluable and will receive a rating.

The TFG will be evaluated according to the following criteria: Assessment of the Introduction: 10%, Assessment of written work: 60%. i Evaluation of the public oral presentation: 30%

Given the peculiarity of the TFG, for the award of the "Honor Matrícula" the degree will designate a commission (that can agree with the teaching staff of the Teaching Committee) that takes into account in a 75% the note of the TFG and in 25% of the student's record of the last two courses (3rd and 4th).

The student may request an ordinary review of the note with the coordinator. The review of the coordinator must be personal and individualized and before the closing date of the TFG minutes. The student can ask the coordinator for a copy of the evaluations that the tutor has done on the work and the other two members of the court (These copies of the reports are the documentary evidence required to request the extraordinary review). Once the review has been made and the student's allegations heard, the coordinator, in agreement with the tutor, can maintain or modify the note.

The copy or plagiarism of material, documents, publications, etc. In the TFG it will assume a zero rating. Remember that a work that reproduces all or part of the work of a partner is considered a "copy". "Plagiarism" is the fact of presenting all or part of an author's text as its own, without citing the sources, whether in paper or in digital format. See UAB documentation on "plagiarism" at: http://wuster.uab.es/web_argumenta_obert/unit_20/sot_2_01.html

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.
