Assessment

a) Programmed evaluation process and activities

The evaluation of the subject will be carried out continuously from the learning evidences collected in the following processes:

• [E1]. Written tests (exams).
• [E2]. Resolution and delivery of questionnaires and exercises proposed in the theory and problem sessions.
• [E3]. Carrying out practical work evaluated from different activities and deliveries.
• [E4]. Carrying out a project evaluated from different activities and deliveries.

The course consists of the following assessment activities, each assessed with a grade between 0 and 10 (both inclusive):

• [E1]-Ex, examination of essential contents, 30% on the final grade.
• [E2]-Prob, resolution of exercises proposed in the theory and problem sessions, 10% on the final grade.
• [E3]-Prac, practical activities, 30% on the final grade.
• [E4]-Proj, project activities, 30% on the final grade.

In order to pass the course through continuous assessment, you will have to get a grade equal to or greater than 5 in the following 3 expressions.

• C1 = (1,0*Nota[E1]-Ex) + (0,1*Nota[E2]-Prob)

• C2 = (1,0*Nota[E4]-Proj) + (0,1*Nota[E2]-Prob)
• C3 = (0,3*Nota[E1]-Ex) + (0,1*Nota[E2]-Prob) + (0,3*Nota[E3]-Prac1) + (0,3*Nota[E4]-Proj)

Keep in mind that:

• if the first two conditions to pass (C1 and C2) are not passed, the result of the expression with the lowest assessment will be assigned as the final grade of the subject (min(C1,C2)). Otherwise, the grade C3 will be assigned as the final grade for the subject.
• the exercises that make up the activity [E2]-Prob must be delivered within an established period, and will be evaluated with a mark between 0 and 10 (both inclusive). Exercises not delivered within their deadline will be evaluated with a grade of 0 and cannot be recovered.
• activities [E3]-Prac and [E4]-Proj will be evaluated based on different proposed sub-activities, which will have an established deadline for completion and delivery. Each subactivity will be evaluated with a score between 0 and 10 (both inclusive). Sub-activities not carried out or delivered after their deadline will be evaluated with a score of 0 and cannot be recovered.

In case of irregularities in the evaluation activities, what is detailed in section f) will be applied.

It is important to bear in mind that evaluation activities will not be carried out on a date or time other than that established, except for justified reasons, duly informed in advance to the teaching staff.

b) Programming of evaluation activities

The calendar of the different evaluation activities is detailed in the 'Campus Virtual' platform, in the Moodle classroom of l'assignatura. The dates of completion of the written tests (activity [E1]-Ex) will also be made public on the website of the School of Engineering, in the exams section.

c) Recovery process

The only recoverable assessment activity is the written test [E1]-Ex.

The student can present himself to recover or improve the mark of this test as long as he has presented himself to a set of activities that represent a minimum of two thirds of the total qualification of the subject.

In order to compute the final grade of the subject, the mark obtained in the recovery exam will replace the one of the exam carried out in the continuous assessment.

In accordance with the coordination of the Degree and the direction of the School of Engineering, the following activities cannot be recovered:

• [E2]-Prob, 10% on the final grade.
• [E3]-Prac, 30% on the final grade.
• [E4]-Proj, 30% on the final grade.

d) Procedure for the review of qualifications

For assessment activities based on written tests ([E1]-Ex), a procedure for booking a revision date ant time will be established in which the student will be able to review the activitywith the teaching staff. In this context, claims can be made about the activity grade, which will be evaluated by the teachers responsible for the subject. Likewise, it is possible to arrange with the teaching staff the review of the rest of the assessment activities up to two weeks before the recovery exams.

e) Special qualifications

If the student has not performed the test [E1]-Ex the "Non-assessable" grade will be assigned. It must be remarked that according to current regulations "Non-assessable" qualifications also exhaust convocation.

As many honors registrations will be assigned as the current regulations allow, as long as the grade is higher than 9.0. The assignment of the registrations will be done following the order of grades. In the event of a tie, the results of the partial tests will be taken into account and, if necessary, supplementary activities will be proposed to determine who is awarded the honor roll.

f) Irregularities by the student, copy and plagiarism.

Notwithstanding other disciplinary measures deemed appropriate, assessment activities will receive a zero whenever a student commits academic irregularities that may alter such assessment. Therefore, copying, plagiarizing, cheating, ... in any of the assessment activities will imply suspending it with a zero.

g) Evaluation of repeater students
From the second enrollment, repeater students may request to validate the evaluation of the activities [E3]-Prac, taking the grade obtained the first time the student has enrolled in the subject. In order to be able to opt for this differentiated evaluation, repeater students must ask the faculty through an email.

h) Single evaluation

This subject does not provide for the single assessment system.
