Assessment

Criteria and indicators:

·         Understanding the theoretical concepts of the subject.

·         Correct and efficient implementation of algorithms.

Activities and evaluation instruments:

·         Theory Marks: it corresponds to two intermediate exams of the theoretical content on the subject. If intermediate exams are passed, the student should not exam him/herself in the final exam.

·         Problems Marks: It corresponds to the mark obtained by a series of problems that the student will be assigned. There is no recovery for the delivery of problems.

·         Follow-up of the learning progress Marks: it corresponds to the mark obtained during the different activities of follow-up of the learning that will be realized during the course (questionnaires in Caronte, Kahoots) and that will done always during the face-to-face classes. There is no recovery for these activities.

·         Practicum Marks: In this section there is a group and an individual mark:

o   Group mark: Corresponds to the grade obtained for group deliveries of the practice. Deliveries of failed practices can be recovered in subsequent installments.

o   Individual note: This is the score obtained in the practice exam. There will be recovery of the practice exam.

The final grade of the subject is obtained by combining the evaluation ofthese four activities in the following way:

A.  Note Theory

IF First intermediate exam score> = 5 and Second intermediate exam note = = 5 THEN

Theory Mark= 0.5 * First intermediate exam + 0.5 * Second intermediate exam

ELSE Theory Mark= MIN (First intermediate exam, Note intermediate exam)

B.  Problems Mark

Mark = Weighted average of the one obtained for each assignment.

C.   Follow-up Mark

Mark = Accumulated note from the collection of the different assessment systems in person.

D.  Note Practices

IF Individual Mark> = 5 and Group Mark> = 5 THEN

Practicum Mark= 0.2 * Individual Mark+ 0.8 * Group Mark

ELSE Practicum Mark = MIN (Individual Mark, Group Mark)

 

Where:

·         Individual Mark= Examination of practicum.

·         Group Mark = Weighted average of the delivery of practices if all are passed. If it is not the case, the mark will be the minimum of the notes of the deliveries. In case the student makes the practicum individually, there will be no practicum exam.

·         Practicum recovery: In the case of having suspended a group delivery, it will be possible to recover in the following deliveries of the practice. The note will be 0.75 * (max (note recovery, note suspended delivery) Note delivery suspended) + note delivery suspended. In the case of suspending the practice exam, the student will have to submit to a practice recovery exam on the same day as the final recovery exam.

 

Final Mark

IF Theory> = 5 and Practicum > = 5 THEN

Final Mark= 0.35 * Theory + 0.2 * Problems + 0.1 * Follow-up + 0.35 * Practicum

THEN Final Mark = MIN (Theory, Practicum)

 

Conditions to pass the subject:

To pass the subject, it must have been approved (note greater or equal to 5):

·         Final mark

·         Theory mark

·         Practical mark

·         Marks delivery practices.

·         Exams

Conditions for non-evaluable:

·         Not having any part of the subject suspended and not fulfilling the conditions to approve.

Conditions for failing the subject:

·         Do not reach a mark equal to or greater than 5.

·         Suspend some of the subject's evaluation activities, although the average exceeds 5. In this case, the mark will be the minimum markobtained from one of the parties (exams or practices).

Conditions for honor grade:

Honors can be obtained with an average grade of 9.0 or higher.

Due to the fact that there is a limited number of honor grades that can be given by group, they will be awarded in order of note from more to less.

Practices, work or exams copied:

Without prejudice to other disciplinary measures that are deemed appropriate, and in accordance with the current academic regulations, irregularities committed by a student that can lead to a variation of the qualification will be classified by zero (0). Assessment activities qualified in this way and by this procedure will not be recoverable. If it is necessary to pass any of these assessment activities to pass the subject, this subject will be suspended directly, without opportunity to recover it in the same course. These irregularities include, among others:

- the total or partial copy of a practice, report, or any other evaluation activity;

- let copy;

- present a group work not done entirely by the members of the group;

- present as own materials prepared by a third party, although they are translations or adaptations, and generally works with non-original and exclusive elements of the student;

- Have communication devices (such as mobile phones, smart watches, etc.) accessible during individual theoretical and practical evaluation tests (exams).

In case the student has committed irregularities in an evaluation act, the numerical note of the file will be the lowest value between 3.0 and the corresponding grade according to the method of evaluation of the subject (and therefore not the approved one will be possible for compensation).

Short and short: copying, copying, or plagiarizing in any of the assessment activities is equivalent to a SUSPENS with a score of less than 3.0.

Publication of notes, dates of examinations, etc.:

The dates of continuous evaluation and delivery of works will be published in the virtual campus and may be subject to changes of programming for reasons of adaptation to possible incidents. The virtual campus will always be informed about these changes as it is understood to be the usual mechanism for exchanging information between teacher and students.

Procedure for reviewing the qualifications

For each evaluation activity, a place, date and time of review will be indicated in which the student can review the activity with the teacher. In this context, claims can be made about the activity note, which will be evaluated by the teachers responsible for the subject. If the student does not appear in this review, this activity will not be reviewed later.

 

Python programming language (version 3.4 onwards) will be used during this course. We do not impose any restrictions on the IDE to be used (Anaconda, PyCharm, Visual Studio)
