Cheating in an exam or test, or using any tool (smartwatch, GPT Chat, computers, mobiles, etc.) will result in a "0" on the test and fail the subject. Students who present a practice or activity in which there is plagiarism will receive a zero and will receive a warning. If the behaviour is repeated, the student will fail the subject.
Active participation of the students is essential for the proper functioning of the subject and is a very relevant element in the evaluation.
