Assessment

This subject’s continuous evaluation consists of 5 evaluations: 1 evaluation for each module of the subject and a theoretical synthesis final examination. Exam dates cannot be changed unless there is a medical reason to justify it. 

1. Evaluation through practical cases and problem solving: It will be done in groups of 4 or 5 people, following the alphabetical order of the class list and according to the final number of students enrolled. It will be a grouped evaluation and will represent 10% of the final grade of the subject. The requirements and the corresponding sections will be defined during the theoretical classes. 

2. Oral defense of works: clinical case. Students must prepare a written assignment and an oral presentation of a pathology and/or syndrome (to be chosen by the students) with its corresponding therapeutic intervention in physiotherapy. Both of them will be done in groups of 4 or 5 people (established in evaluation 1). The assignment must be delivered through the Campus Virtual before the presentation. The oral presentation is made in groups, where 3 students will present and the rest will answer questions proposed by the evaluation tribunal (teachers) related to the clinical case. The evaluation will be in group and will represent 30% of the final grade of the subject. Oral exposure time: 5 minutes. If a face-to-face oral presentation is not possible due to the exceptional situation of COVID, it will be held via Teams.

3. Oral evaluations through structured tests: competences in physiotherapy: Clinical history of physiotherapy: Role-play (physiotherapist-patient) in pairs (in order of list), where comprehension and response capacity of the student will be assessed. Different physiotherapy clinical situations will be proposed on the day of the examination. The evaluation will be individual and will represent 15% of the final grade of the subject. Duration: 5 minutes. If a face-to-face oral presentation is not possible due to the exceptional situation of COVID, it will be held via Teams.

4. Practical type evaluation through simulations: In pairs (in order of list) students must create and design a physiotherapy exercise routine, adapted and directed to a pathology that will present in class or via video (voice-over not allowed). Students have to deliver the routine in a triptych format through the Campus Virtual on the established date. The evaluation will be individual and will represent 15% of the final grade of the subject. Oral exposure time: 5 minutes. 

5. Written evaluation through objective tests of selection of multiple choice items: Synthesis. The final exam includes questions of the theoretical and practical content taught throughout the course. It consists of 50 multiple-choice questions (with 4 answer options and only a correct one). The answers without responses will not be penalised and those answered incorrectly will be penalised 0.5. The evaluation will be individual and will represent 30% of the final grade of the subject. It will have a duration of 60 minutes. In the event that it is not possible to attend the faculty due to an exceptional situation such as COVID, it will be done through Moodle.

Any adversity (care, medical, etc.) suffered on the student side and/or groups of students must be communicated 72 hours in advance on working days by means of the institutional email of the teacher in subject. Any demand or proposal that does not meet these requirements will be disregarded and not considered valid in case of complaints by the students.

Plagiarism of an assignment will be considered a serious misconduct and it will be penalised by failing that evaluation. 

Final test:
In order to take the final exam, the student must have attended at least 80% of all classes and presented the officialproof of absence if necessary. If not, the student can opt for the recovery test.

Recovery Test:
Students who have not passed the subject through continuous assessment with a grade equal to or greater than 5, may be submitted individually to a recovery test. It will consist of a test type exam with 50 multi-choice questions on the theoretical and practical content of the subject, with a single correct answer and in which each correct answer will add 1 point, an incorrect answer will be penalized with -0.5 and the blank answers will not alter the final mark. The maximum final mark that can be drawn in the recovery is 6.

Students who obtain a score of 0.0 on any of the evaluation of the continuous assessment can not be submitted to the recovery test and, therefore, will be considered as non-evaluable.

The final grade will have a numerical representation according to the scale 0-10 and a qualitative equivalence according to the criteria of the UAB of suspense, approved, notable and outstanding (with the option of aspiring to the qualification of honorary registration).

Review of the tests:
The procedure for reviewing the tests or supporting documents will be in accordance with the regulations established by the UAB and it will be individual and online for the student who requires it. To do this, you must submit a prior request by email and / or through the Virtual Campus, within 5 working days after the test. You can not claim outside of this period of time. For the revision of group evaluations, the attendance of all the members of the group will be mandatory.


According to article 116.8, when it is considered that the student has not been able to provide sufficient evidence of evaluation in the record, this subject will be recorded as non-assessable.
