Two written tests (exams) on the content of each block.

• Work module, with a value of 30% of the final grade of the course. Two works (15% each one).

No evaluable activity will weigh more than 50% of the final grade,

The subject will be graded with a minimum of three evaluable activities from two different modules.

Evaluation activities must be submitted on time. The work module is not subject to the recovery test.

Assessment activities will be scheduled throughout the academic year. The dates of the tests in the classroom and of delivery of works and reviews will be communicated to the students sufficiently in advance. At the time of carrying out / delivering each assessment activity, the teacher will inform (Moodle, SIA) of the procedure and date of review of the grades.

In the event of several irregularities in the evaluation acts of the same subject, the final grade for this subject will be 0.

SINGLE ASSESMENT:

Two exams (35% + 35%), on the content of each block.

Two written works (15%+15%) on the content of each block.

All these tests will be given together on a single day, at the end of the course. The date will be announced by the professor at the beginning of the course.
