Assessment

The final grade will be calculated as follows:
										
											
										
											Theory Tests (35%)
										
											
										
											    Test 1: 5%
										
											    Test 2: 5%
										
											    Final theory exam: 15% (minimum 5 grade to average)
										
											    Practical final exam 10% (minimum 5 marks to average)
										
											
										
											 Classroom practices (35%)
										
											
										
											    Solve 2 case studies on the wiki
										
											
										
											Preparation of Virtual Herbarium in groups (15%)
										
											
										
											    Identify, describe and photograph plant species during field trips. The herbarium must have a minimum of between 30 and 45 plants (depending the group is 2 or 3 people).
										
											
										
											Field Trips (15%)
										
											
										
											    Elaboration of vegetation profiles in groups
										
											
										
											The following should be noted:
										
											
										
											1) Exams and field trips are MANDATORY, as well as 80% of homework and exercises done in the classroom.
										
											
										
											2) The minimum grade to average in the final exams is 5.
										
											
										
											3) Students will obtain a “Not assessed/Not submitted” course grade unless they have submitted more than 30% of the assessment items.
										
											
										
											4) VERY IMPORTANT about plagiarism. 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.

5) The undergraduate student has the right to a reassessment of the exams.
										
											
										
											 
										
											Qualifications review procedure:
										
											
										
											At the time of each assessment activity students (Moodle) will beinformed of the procedureand date of review of grades.
										
											
										
											In the event that tests or exams cannot be taken onsite, they will be adapted toan online formatmade 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 teaching methodology and the evaluation proposed in the guide may undergo some modification subject to the onsite teaching restrictions imposed by health authorities.
