Assessment
Continous Assessment Activities
| Title | Weighting | Hours | ECTS | Learning Outcomes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Oral presentation of a case or work related to the subject of the course. | 40% | 1 | 0.04 | 1, 8, 3, 5, 2, 11, 7, 6, 9, 4, 12, 13, 14 |
| Practices (3) | 60% | 4 | 0.16 | 1, 8, 3, 5, 2, 10, 7, 6, 9, 4, 12, 13, 14 |
The course includes 2 types of assessment:
1.- Continuous assessment: The assessment will consist of the resolution in the classroom of 4 practical cases (in groups and/or individually) on the content of the syllabus (60% of the final mark) and the oral presentation of a practical case or group work on some aspect of the syllabus (40% of the final mark). In the continuous assessment, class attendance is compulsory. In the case that it is duly justified (illness, force majeure or similar), you may miss one of the 4 examinable practicals, which will be made up at the end of the course. If there is no justification, the practical will count as a zero.
Recovery:Students may opt for re-evaluation provided that they have obtained a minimum mark of 3 points out of 10 in the final assessment. The re-evaluation will consist of a written exam (50% of the mark) and two practical cases on the content of the syllabus (25% + 25% of the mark).
2.- Single cassessment: Students who, for justified reasons and with prior authorisation from the teaching staff, are unable to attend classes, may be assessed on the day officially set for the course exam by means of a written exam (50% of the mark) and two practical cases on the content of the syllabus (25% + 25% of the mark).
Recovery: The same recovery system is applied as for the continuous assessment.
A student who copies or attempts to copy in an exam will receive a 0 in the course and will lose the right to the re-evaluation. A student who submits a practice in which there is evidence of plagiarism or who cannot justify the arguments of his practice will get a 0 and will receive a warning. In case of repetition of the behavior, the student will fail the course (0) and will lose the right to the re-evaluation.
Students will be assessable as long as they have carried out a set of activities, the weight of which is equivalent to a minimum of 2/3 of the total grade for the subject. If the value of the activities carried out does not reach this threshold, the teacher of the subject may consider the student as not assessable.
