Assessment

The single assessment system is not foreseen in this subject.

The course is divided into two modules:

1. the first half of the course will be devoted to the deepening of object-oriented programming and data structures (module 1)
2. the second half of the course will be devoted to the study of database systems (module 2)

The two parts will be evaluated independently, and each module will count 50%. To obtain the final grade it will be necessary to pass each of the two parts separately (Note module> = 5).

Each of the parts of the course will be evaluated independently three types of activities and the weighted sum of them will give the final grade. These three activities are:

1. Individual Exams (EI)
2. Assessable activities (AA)
3. Practices (P)

1. The first part (EI) consists of two partial exams in which the students will be evaluated individually. The minimum grade to pass each partial exam is 5.
2. The second part (AA) will be carried out continuously throughout the course and is divided into autonomous activities proposed within the classroom sessions and autonomous activities proposed to be done outside the classroom. The final mark will be the weighted sum of the evidence requested.
3. The third part (P) will be evaluated by the delivery of a project and a validation test. The final mark will be obtained from the weighted sum of the two previous ones. The minimum mark to pass the project is 5, while the validation test must be passed with a minimum grade of 3.5. The final mark of this part must be a minimum of 5.

To pass the course it is necessary that the evaluation of each of the parts exceeds the minimum required and that the total evaluation exceeds 5 points.

GRADE ON THE TRANSCRIPT, HONOURS AND NON-ASSESSABLE

In case of passing the subject, the grade of the transcript will be the grade obtained according to the previous section. In the case of not passingthe subject due to any of the assessment activities not achieving theminimum mark required, the numerical mark on the transcript will be the minimum between a 4 and the average mark between the two theory mid-term exams. With the exception of students who:

1) do not participate in any of the assessment activities, which will be awarded the grade of "non-assessable" (any student who hands in a practical or a scheduled assessment will be awarded a grade),

2) have committed irregularities in an assessment activity, which will be given the lower value between 3.0 and the numerical mark mentioned above (and therefore a pass by compensation will not be possible).

As many registrations as possible will be given within the university regulations, as long as the final mark obtained is at least a 9.

RECOVERY

According to the Academic Regulations of the UAB in order to participate in the student's recovery must have been previously evaluated in a set of activities the weight of which is equivalent to a minimum of two
thirds of the total grade of the subject. In addition, it is necessary to have obtained a minimum grade of 3in the average of the subject to be able to presentto the recovery.

EI: In the case of failing or not taking any of the individual tests, they can be made up on the day assigned to the official exam week.

AA: The evaluable exercises to be handed in, which are not solved in class, can be recovered before taking the theory exam, counting for 80% of the grade (and therefore never a grade higher than 8).

P: In the case of obtaining a grade lower than 5 in the practical part, it will be necessary to recover both the project and the corresponding validation test (this, on the day assigned to the official exam week). The grade of the recovered project cannot be higher than 8.

CONVALIDATION

From one course to the next, only the final module grades are saved, as long as they are higherthan 5.

PLAGIARISM AND VARIANTS

Without prejudice to other disciplinary measures deemed appropriate, and in accordance with current academic regulations, irregularities committed by a student that may lead to a variation in the grade will be graded with a zero (0). Assessment activities graded in this way and by this procedure will not be recoverable. If it is necessary to pass any of these assessment activities in order to pass the subject, this subject will be directly failed, with no opportunity to recover it in the same course. These irregularities include, among others
- total or partial copying of a practical, report, or any other assessment activity;
- allowing copying;
- submitting group work that has not been done in its entirety by the members of the group;
- presenting as one's own materials produced by a third party, even if they are translations or adaptations, and in general work with elements that are not original and exclusive to the student;
- having communication devices (such as mobile phones, smart watches, etc.) accessible during individual theoretical and practical assessment tests (exams).

In summary: copying, allowing copying or plagiarism in any of the assessment activities is equivalent to a SUSPENSION with a mark lower than 3.5.

COMMUNICATION

The dates of evaluations and delivery of problems will be published in the document manager Caronte (https://caronte.uab.cat/) and may be subject to possible programming changes for reasons of adaptation to possible incidents. The Charon will always be informed about these changes as it is understood that this is the usual platform for the exchange of information between teachers and students (materials, group management, deliveries, notes, communication with teachers).

In order to use it, the following steps must be taken:

1. Register as a user by giving your name, NIU, and aphoto card in JPG format. If you have alreadyregistered for another subject, there is no need to do it again, you can go to the next step.
2. Enroll in the type of teaching "Advanced Computer Science Teaching", giving as subject code "InfoAvan" (without the quotes). Even if you are a repeater, you need to re-register.
