Assessment

Continous Assessment Activities

The evaluation of the subject will be carried out throughout the academic semester through a variety of activities that combine individual and collective work, and the continuous evaluation with the final.

To pass this subject, the student must show a good general communicative competence, both orally and in writing, and a good command of the language or languages spoken in the teaching guide. In all the activities (individual and in group) will take into account, therefore, the linguistic correction, the writing and the formal appearances of presentation. Students must be able to express themselves fluently and correctly, and must show a high degree of comprehension of academic texts. An activity may be returned (not assessed) or suspended if the teacher considers that it does not meet these requirements

Throughout the subject, it is necessary to show an attitude compatible with the educational profession as a requirement to pass the subject. Some competencies can be: active listening, respect, participation, cooperation, empathy, kindness, punctuality, not judging, arguing, using the right mobile, etc. This attitude will be evaluated throughout the development of the group work and can condition the note of this one.

Class attendance is mandatory: students must attend a minimum of 80% of the practical classes (seminars), otherwise it will be considered not presented. Receipts presented in case of absence are used only to explain this absence, in no case are they exempt from attendance. 

To pass the subject, it will be necessary to obtain a minimum grade of 5 in each of the assessment activities, so that the average of the activities' grades can be calculated to obtain the final grade for the subject. In the event of failing the subject, in order to be eligible for the recovery process, a minimum grade of 3.5/10 in the set of continuous assessment activities is required. The recovery process will consist of an individual and / or collective test, as the case may be, to assess that the student has achieved the objectives and competencies set out in the course. The suspension of one of the activities may lead to the suspension of the entire subject. If you choose to retake one of the activities, the final grade chosen is a 5.
The grades of each of the assessment tests will be made public on the virtual campus within a period of 3 weeks after their delivery. The student who wants to revise the note will have to do it in the date communicated by the teachers of this subject, having requested time of consultation by email.

Following the regulations of the Faculty of Education Sciences in relation to criteria and general evaluation guidelines (Agreement of the Academic Planning Commission, 4 June 2014). Copying or plagiarism, both in the case of assignments and in the case of exams, may mean suspending the subject. A work, activity or exam is considered to be “copied” when it reproduces all or part of the work of another classmate. A work or activity is considered to be "plagiarized" when a part of a text by an author is presented as one's own without citing the sources, regardless of whether the original sources are on paper or in digital format.

The dates for submitting assessment activities:

Individual assessment: Individual reflective assessment of the educational resource and the learning situation; it will be submitted after the group work submission. (First week of June)**

Individual assessment: Monitoring and participation in group work based on the application of didactic content of the environment, and evaluation of digital teaching competence. (Continuous assessment throughout the course.)

Group assessment: Design of educational resources - Didactic Space of Natural Environment(*) and Learning Situation of Social Environment.- (Last week of May)**

(*). Attention: The group assessment activity for Natural Environment will involve participation in the Exhibition of Didactic Spaces forworking on sciences in Early Childhood Education. Participation in this assessment activity may require the student to change the usual day/time of the course. This information will be presented at the beginning of the course.

(**). Due to the complexity of the group assessment for natural environment (science fair), we reserve the possibility of exchanging the dates of individual and group assessments. This will be specified on the first day of class.

Reassessment: Recovery of the individual assessment of the course. (First week of July)

The requirements of the single evaluation contemplated by the subject are the following:

The single evaluation implies that I must deliver, on a single date, the necessary number of evaluation evidences to accredit and guarantee the achievement of the objectives and learning outcomes established in the subject.
The tests that are established for the single evaluation have the same level of demand as the continuous evaluation.

-You will have to present the same evaluation activities as the rest of the students, but with an adjustment in the percentage of the activities to include an interview. The evaluation interview aims to ensure that all the work presented is your own and that the bibliography and content of the subject are mastered.

-It is necessary to attend class a minimum of 80% of the sessions, as established. Otherwise, you can present yourself to the recovery of the activity that you have determined, provided that you have delivered at least 66% of the evaluation activities. If you have not submitted any assessment activity, you would not be able to take up for recovery.

-Single assessment activities must be submitted towards the end of the teaching period, specifically on the same date as the evaluation of the individual reflection activity, scheduled in the timeline for the first session. (First week of June)
