Assessment

a) Continuous assessment:

The course is assessed on a continuous basis with 4 evaluable activities, with contents from Blocks 2.1 to 2.7, which count for 25% each.
The 4 assesable activities will measure the knowledge acquired by the students of the contents of Blocks 2.1 to 2.7. Blocks 2.1 and 2.2 will be assessed together, as well as blocks 2.3 and 2.4 and blocks 2.6 and 2.7. Block 2.5 will have an individual assessable activity. They will take the form of a partial examination in the computer laboratories.
In the case of irregularities in any of these assessable activities, the criteria of point e) will be applied.
In order to pass the course, a minimum mark of 5.0 will be required as an average mark in the continuous assessment and a minimum mark of 1.0 in each activity, except in the case that the student does not attend the activity.

b) Review of qualifications:
For each assessment 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 on the mark for the activity, which will be assessed by the lecturer responsible for the subject. If the student does not attend this review, this activity will not be reviewed later.

c) Recovery:
Students who do not pass the course by means of continuous assessment (whether they have a Fail or a Non-assessable) may take a final make-up exam, which will include any part of the course and which will count for 100%. Students who have passed in order to improve their marks can also take the make-up exam, but they will then renounce the grade of the continuous assessment.
Any student who sits this exam automatically gives up any previous qualification s/he may have had on a continuous basis. The minimum mark for passing this final exam is again 5.0. If the student does not take this exam, he/she will keep the grade of the continuous assessment (whatever it is).
Students may sit the make-up exam provided they have taken a set of activities that represent a minimum of two thirds of the total grade for the course.

d) Qualifications:
Matricula d'honor. The decision to award an honours qualification is the decision of the lecturers responsible for the course. UAB regulations state that MHs can only be awarded to students who have obtained a final grade of 9.00 or higher. Up to 5% of the total number of students enrolled may be awarded MHs.
A student will be considered not assessable (NA) if he/she has not taken part in a set of activities, the weight of which is equivalent to at least two thirds of the total qualification of the course.

e) Irregularities on the part of the student, copying and plagiarism:
Without prejudice to other disciplinary measures that may be deemed appropriate, irregularities committed by the student that may lead to a change in the grade of an assessment act will be graded with a zero. Therefore, copying, plagiarism, cheating, allowing copying, etc. in any of the assessment activities will result in a fail mark of zero. 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 course, this subject will be failed directly, with no opportunity to make it up in the same course. In this case, the student's final mark will be a fail (3.0 numerical grade).

f) Calendar and programming:
The dates of continuous assessment and work delivery will be published in the corresponding Moodle classroom and may be subject to possible changes in the programme for reasons of adaptation to possible incidents. Students will always be informed of these changes via the Moodle classroom as it is understood that this is the usual platform for exchange of information between teachers and students.

 This subject does not allow for a single assessment system.
