Evaluation activities
The evaluation activities are the following:
Grades computation
The Final Grade (NF) of the subject will be calculated according to the activities indicated above, applying the next equation:
NF = (0.5 x NF1) + (0.5 x NF2)
Where:
NF1 = (0.5 x ExP1) + (0.30 x Lab1) + (0.20 x Pr1)
NF2 = (0.5 x ExP2) + (0.30 x Lab2) + (0.20 x Pr2)
Each activity will be evaluated under the scale of 0 to 10.
To pass the subject, the final grade must be equal to or greater than 5 (NF > = 5.0) and fullfil all the following conditions:
ExP1 >=3
ExP2 >=3
NF1 >=3
NF2 >=3
Synthesis examination
In accordance with the academicregulations, students who do not pass the subject but who have been evaluated for more than two thirds of this, can be submitted to a synthesis examination.
This exam will allow to recover the part of evaluation corresponding to the partial exams (50% of the final grade), but not the part corresponding to the laboratory activities. The latter, due to their eminently practical nature, can not be recovered.
Repeating students
The repeating students need to be re-evaluated of all the evaluation activities planned for the subject. The note of tests carried out in past courses will not be maintained.
Consideration of "Not Evaluable"
Students who do not attend either of the two exams, or the final synthesis test, will be considered "Not Evaluable".
Consideration in case of copy or plagiarism
Without prejudice to other disciplinary measures deemed appropriate, and in accordance with the regulations in force, the irregularities committed by the student that may lead to a variation of the grade of an evaluation act will be graded with a zero. Therefore, copying or allowing to copy a practice or any other evaluation activity will involve suspending it with a zero and can not be recovered in the same academic year.
Honor grades
Granting an Honor qualification is a decision of the faculty responsible for the subject. Honors will be awarded only to students who have shown a great level of excellence in the subject, and not by default to those who have removed the highest marks. The regulations of the UAB indicate that Honors can only be awarded to students who have obtained a final grade of 9.00 or more. It can be granted up to 5% of MH of the total number of students enrolled.
Communication
The Virtual Campus will be the preferred communication platform withthe students.
