Assessment
Continous Assessment Activities
| Title | Weighting | Hours | ECTS | Learning Outcomes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Written and / or oral tests that allow to value the knowledge acquired by the student | 50% | 0 | 0 | 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17 |
| Delivery of works | 50% | 0 | 0 | 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 8, 10, 16, 17 |
CONTINUOUS ASSESSMENT:
There will be 4 individual PECs corresponding to the topics studied in the subject.
The total of the PECs will have 50% with respect to the final grade of the subject.
The remaining 50% corresponds to the final theoretical exam.
The exam averages the continuous assessment regardless of the grade obtained, as long as a minimum of 3.5 is obtained.
The total weighted average must be 5 points or higher in order to pass.
SINGLE ASSESSMENT:
Students who opt for the single assessment will take a final summary test of all the content of the subject (40%) and will deliver a document containing the solutions to the two PECs of the subject (30% each).
The date for this test and the delivery of the course work will be the same scheduled in the schedule for the last continuous assessment exam.
The same recovery system will be applied as for the continuous evaluation.
Those students who opt for this option must notify them in advance and at most one day before the delivery of the first PEC.
EVALUATION OF STUDENTS IN SECOND CALL OR MORE:
The students who repeat the subject will have to take the scheduled tests and exams and deliver the subject work on the dates indicated in the Moodle classroom.
RECOVERY EXAM:
The student who does not pass the subject, who does not reach 5 (total) out of 10, in accordance with the criteria established in the two previous sections, may take a final exam provided that the student has been evaluated in a set of activities, the weight of which is equivalent to a minimum of two thirds of the total grade for the subject.
If you have not been evaluated by these two third parties because you have not taken the tests, you will obtain a score of Not Taken, without having the possibility oftaking the final recovery exam.
In this exam, all the contents of the subject that have not been passed in the continuous assessment will be evaluated again.
In the case of passing the final exam, the course will be approved with a maximum of 5, regardless of the grade obtained in the exam.
CHANGING THE DATE OF A TEST OR EXAM:
Students who need to change an assessment date must submit the request by filling in the document found in the Moodle space for EPSI Tutoring.
Once the document has been completed, it must be sent to the teaching staff of the subject and to the coordination of the Degree.
REVISION:
At the time of carrying out each evaluation activity, the teaching staff will inform the students of the mechanisms for reviewing the qualifications.
For single assessment students, the review process will be the same.
OTHER CONSIDERATIONS:
Without prejudice to other disciplinary measures deemed appropriate, and in accordance with current academic regulations, "in the event that the student performs any irregularity that may lead to a significant variation in the grade of an evaluation act, he will be graded with a 0 this act of evaluation, regardless of the disciplinary process that can be initiated.
In the event that several irregularities occur in the acts of evaluation of the same subject, the final grade for this subject will be 0 ".
If during the correction there are indications that an activity or work has been carried out with answers assisted by artificial intelligence, the teacher may complement the activity with a personal interview to corroborate the authorship of the text.
If there are unforeseen circumstances that prevent the normal development of the subject, the teaching staff may modify both the methodology and the evaluation of the subject.
