Assessment (learning evidences)

The subject will be assessed based on the following learning evidences:

EV1. There are two evidences, corresponding to a 34% of the final grade, and include contents of Behavioural genetics (Section A). The evidences are:

- EV1a (25.5% of final grade). Continuous work to solve Behavioural genetics cases corresponding to Section A. This work will be carried out both individually and as a group throughout several sessions in the classroom (½ group seminars), as well as autonomously outside the classroom. Timing: Continuously throughout the semester, with ongoing close interactions between the whole group classes (master classes) and the ½ group seminars of this section.

- EV1b (8.5% of the final grade). Content taught until the moment in Section A will be evaluated in a written exam. Timing: first assessment week.

EV2. It includes 3 evidences, with a global weight of 66% of the final grade, and it corresponds to Section B of Neuroanatomy. The evidences are:

- EV2a (16% of the final grade). Content taught until the moment in Section B will be evaluated in a written exam. Timing: first assessment week.

- EV2b (40% of the final grade). The comprehension and integration of the content of all the units of Section B will be assessed in a written exam. Timing: second assessment week.

- EV2c (10% of the final grade). Continuous evaluation through the delivery of distinct activities. Timing: during all the semester.

Definition of Non-Assessable

Students who have not performed any of the assessment tests or have completed learning evidences with a weight lower than 40% for the whole subject will be marked as NA (Non-Assessable).

Grades from Sections A and B

- The Section A grade (weight: 3.4 points of the whole course) corresponds to that obtained in EV1a and EV1b.

- The Section B grade (weight: 6.6 points of the whole course) is obtained from the weighted average of EV2a to EV2c grades.

Reassessment tests

Only those students who have completed evidences with a weight equal or greater than 66.7% of the total grade will be eligible for reassessment. Students who have completed evidences with a weighting of between 40-66.6% of the total grades will be assessable but will not be allowed to do the assessment tests.

There will be two types of reassessment tests:

- Reassessment of the continuous work in Section A. This will be carried out continuously throughout the semester. The final Section A grade will already include the reassessment grades when carried out.

- Reassessment of Section B. When after the weighted average of Sections A and B, the grade is lower than 5, but equal or higher than 3,5 (out of 10), and Section B has been failed, students can perform a reassessment of Section B. The reassessment test will consist of an examination of written questions on general contents of the entire B block course. Reassessment of Section B will consist of an exam with written questions about all Section B unit. The maximum grade that can be obtained in this reassessment is 5 (out of 10). The grade obtained in the reassessment replaces the grade of section B obtained previously.

Subject passed

The subject will be considered passed when the weighted average of Section A (or its continuous reassessment) and Section B (or its final reassessment), is equal to or greater than 5.

Students registered for the second (or more) time

No unique final synthesis test for students who enroll for the second time or more is anticipated.

Language note

The written tests will initially be conducted in Catalan. If students request the translation of the exams into Spanish, they must do so in writing to the academic management of the faculty within the first 4 weeks at the latest.

UNIQUE ASSESSMENT
Total duration of written test: 2 h + 2.15 (4 h 15 min, with a 15-min break between EV1 and EV2.
EV1 (34%) (genetic bases): Written exam + problem-solving test + case-solving test. Duration 2 hours
EV2a (16%) (Neuroanatomy): Written exam with open questions and localization of structures (Duration: 45 min)
EV2b (40%) (Neuroanatomy): Written exam with open questions, test questions and structure localization questions (Duration: 1.5 hours)
EV2C (10%) (Neuroanatomy): Delivery via moodle of two tasks.

The same subject recovery process as that applied to the continuous assessment process will be applied.

The single assessment will take place in the second assessment period.
