Assessment

General considerations

Class attendance is mandatory. The student must attend a minimum of 80% of the full sessions for each and every professor involved in the Module. Otherwise, it will be considered "not submitted"

To approve the module Llengua i Literatura catalana i espanyola i la seva didàctica it is necessary to pass each one of the blocks of content and each one of the subjects that configure them that are studied independently.

As the main language of the master's and secondary education is Catalan, the oral and written tasks related to this module must be presented in this language. In the written activities (individual or group) will take into account the linguistic correction, the writing and the formal and presentation aspects. It is necessary to express oneself orally with fluency and correctness and a high degree of understanding of the academic texts must be shown. An activity may not be evaluated, returned or suspended if it does not meet any of the aforementioned requirements.

The detail of the evaluation of each subject or content block will be provided with the program at the beginning of the course.

The summative evaluation of each topic or block includes group and individual activities. To be able to make the average, a minimum of 4 must be obtained in each of the evaluation activities that are evaluated.

In the parts of the module taught by each teacher, you can ask for complementary tasks without necessarily being considered evaluation tasks, although they will be of mandatory delivery.

The delivery of works will be carried out primarily via virtual campus. Other delivery alternatives may be enabled, under previous agreement with the professors, when reported in class or through the virtual campus. Works will not be accepted through ways not agreed with the teacher or works with incorrect formats, which do not include the name of the authors, the subject or sent after the deadline.

The works and examswill be returned upon revision by the professor within a maximum period of one month from its delivery or realization.

According to the UAB regulations, the plagiarism or copy will be penalized with a 0 as a grade and the possibility of recovery will be lost, whether it is an individual work or a group work (in this case, all the members of the group will have a 0).

If during the realization of the individual work in class, the teacher considers that a student is trying to copy or is discovered with some type of document or device not authorized by the faculty, it will be qualified with a 0, without recovery option.

The final qualification of the module Llengua i Literatura catalana i espanyola i la seva didactica will take into account:

a) Having approved –passed- all blocks of content taken independently.

b) Compliance with the attendance criteria.

c) The delivery of the proposed tasks within the indicated period.

d) The absence of plagiarism according to the indications explained in the previous points.
