Assessment

Continous Assessment Activities

Assessment

In order to pass the subject, the assessment activities of the three blocks must be approved. The evaluation of the three blocks involves monitoring the work to be done, and a continuous presentation of what is required at each moment of the course, including involvement and participation in the classroom.

The delivery of the three works will be one week after the end of each of the three blocks.

The first assignment, an individual critical reflection on a reading, will be due on October 4, 2024, and can be recovered, if redone, before December 13, 2024. The following learning outcomes are included in this work:

1. Analyze and apply critical reasoning to the understanding of representative versus participatory Democracy. Power, government and governability.

2. Analyze and apply the contributions of history, geography and social sciences to the teaching of human rights.

6. Identify, describe and analyze didactic models, strategies and curricular materials on political culture and civic culture.

11. Assess the impact of the difficulties, prejudices, and discrimination that actions or projects may include, in the short or long term, in relation to certain people or groups.

The second paper, the individual critical assessment of a didactic proposal for Citizenship Education, must be handed in on November 15, 2024, and can be recovered, if redone before the end of December 13, 2024. The following learning outcomes are included in this work:

3. Analyze inequalities due to sex/gender and gender biases in the field of own knowledge.

5. Identify the main inequalities and discrimination based on sex/gender present in society.

9. Reflect, assess and apply the necessary changes in educational practice on the concept of participation. Participation as an end and as a means for change.

The third work, the design in pairs or trios of a didactic unit of Education for Citizenship and its presentation inclass, must be handed in on January 10, 2025. It can be recovered, if redone and delivered no later than January 24, 2025. The following learning outcomes are included in this work:

4. Communicate using non-sexist or discriminatory language.

7. Propose projects and actions that are in accordance with the principles of ethical responsibility and respect for human rights, fundamental rights, diversity and democratic values.

8. Suggest projects and actions that incorporate the gender perspective.

10. Reflect, assess and apply the necessary changes in educational practice on social participation from the perspective of social actors: social movements and associations.

The final revision of the note would be carried out, if applicable, on the last day of the subject: January 31, 2025… It would consist of establishing a dialogue to see if some criteria informed to the students prior to this have been overlooked in the correction.

The correction by the teaching staff will be within the month following delivery.

Class attendance is mandatory: the student must attend a minimum of 80% of classes, and the grade may be penalized by 10% if this limit of absence is exceeded, if it is unjustified. 

Equally, active participation in class dynamics and dialogues are evaluation criteria.

In accordance with UAB regulations, plagiarism or copying of any individual or group document will be penalized with a mark of 0 for that document, without any possibility of replacement. During the completion of an assignment or individual examination in class, if the teacher has reason to believe that a student attempts to copy or discovers any kind of unauthorized document or device, the student involved will receive a grade of 0, without no chance to sit back down.

To achieve a passing grade in this course, students should demonstrate, through their oral presentations and written assignments, that they have superior communication skills and that they have a correct command of the vehicular language and languages listed in the course syllabus, being competent in articulating a critical and argued discourse on the reality studied. The evaluation of all individual and group work tasks in the course includes criteria based on the quality, in terms of accuracy and fluency, of the tasks presented by the learners. Students are expected to demonstrate academic skills, which include the ability to express themselves fluently and accurately and understand written academic texts. All potential first cycle primary school teachers should demonstrate a good command of Catalan (C1 level for first and second year students and C2 level for third year students), as described here:

It should be noted that the students' attitude of respect and coexistence are intrinsic to the learning of citizenship education, and, therefore, the inclusive perspective is essential, referring to gender or any other condition. An attitude that may break the rules of coexistence will be penalized in the same subject for being inconsistent with the same skills being pursued.

SINGLE ASSESSMENT

This signature DOES incorporate the possibility of a single assessment. In this case, the three works will be of the same typology and learning results of the continuous evaluation. All three will have to be delivered on January 10, 2025, being able to recover, if the necessary ones are redone, on January 24, 2025. If applicable, the review of the final qualification will follow the same criteria and will take place on the same date established for the continuous assessment.
