CONTINUOUS EVALUATION
Activities
The skills of this subject will be assessed through the following activities:
- Final test (final exam), to be done on the date established in the subject Calendar. The teaching team shall indicate the format of this test, which may be written or oral. This part of the continuous assessment accounts for 50% of the final grade of the subject.
- A minimum of two practical evaluation activities. As a guideline, these activities may consist of a partial exam (not valid to release content), practical cases, reports, reviews, legal writings, research papers, among other activities. The selected activities can be carried out individually or in groups, as decided by the teaching team. This part of the continuous assessment accounts for 40% of the final grade of the subject.
- Attendance and participation in class. This means active participation throughout the class sessions, legally based, appropriate and relevant to the topics discussed, and different from that carried out in seminar classes / practicals. This part of the continuous assessment accounts for 10% of the final grade of the subject.
Grades
Each of the continuous assessment activities must have a minimum grade of 3.5 out of 10, to be able to add up and make an average grade in the continuous assessment.
The grade of the continuous assessment will be the result of the sum of the activities, provided that the minimum marks required to be added are obtained. To succeed the continuous assessment, the average grade must be 5 out of 10 or higher.
The qualification will be “Non-assessable” when it is considered that the student has not provided evidence that allows contrasting the degree of assessment of the basic and specific competencies of the subject.
Re-evaluation
If a student does not pass the subject's assessment, with a minimum grade of 5 out of 10, he/she may take a final re-evaluation exam on the date indicated in the subject's Calendar. The re-evaluation can only be carried out if the student has followed the continuous evaluation. Regardless of the grade obtained in the re-evaluation test, if passed, the subject will be approved with a 5 out of 10.
---
Any student who copies or attempts to copy in any of the assessment activities will receive a 0 on such activity. Any student who presents a practice or activity in which plagiarism or any other academic fraud is detected will receive a 0 and will be warned. In case of repetition of the behaviour, the student shall suspend the subject. These measures will be taken without prejudice to the corresponding disciplinary measures, in accordance with the current academic regulations.
If during the correction of any activity or work there are indications that the assistance of artificial intelligence tools has been used, the teacher may complement the activity with a personal interview to corroborate the authorship of the text.
If extraordinary circumstances occur that prevent the normal development of the subject, the teaching staff may modify both the methodology and the assessment of the subject.
SINGLE EVALUATION
Activities
The single assessment of this subject, by students who have taken it, consists of the following evidence:
- Final test (final exam) to take place on the date established in the subject Calendar. This part of the assessment accounts for 50% of the final grade of the subject.
- Subject work. At the beginning of the course, a project will be proposed on some of the topics of the subject. The deadline for handing in the work is theday of the subject's final exam, in accordance with the established calendar. This part of the assessment accounts for 50% of the final grade of the subject.
Grades
Each of the assessment activities must have a minimum grade of 3.5 out of 10, to be able to add up and make an average grade in the assessment.
The mark to pass the assessment will be the sum of the activities, provided that the minimum marks required to be added are obtained. To pass the assessment, the average grade must be 5 out of 10 or higher.
The qualification will be “Non-assessable” when it is considered that the student has not provided evidence that allows contrasting the degree of assessment of the basic and specific competencies of the subject.
Re-evaluation
If a student does not pass the subject's assessment, with a minimum grade of 5 out of 10, he/she may take a final re-evaluation exam on the date indicated in the subject's Calendar. In addition to the final exam, the re-evaluation will be conditioned on the presentation of the subject’s work with the amendments indicated by the teacher, in case this part of the evaluation is considered unsuitable. Regardless of the grade obtained in the re-evaluation test, if passed, the subject will be approved with a 5 out of 10.
