The subject has two different parts Programming and Computing. Each part will have a teaching methodology adapted to the educational contents.
Programming
The teaching management of the subject will be carried out through the documentary manager Caronte (http://caronte.uab.cat/), which will be used to view the materials, manage the groups of practices, make the corresponding deliveries, to see the notes, to communicate with the teachers, etc. To be able to use it you have to do the following steps:
In the development of the programming part, the reverse class methodology will continue. This means that the students will have to work some knowledge before each session to be able to leave for the face-to-face sessions those questions that can only happen face to face. The starting point is the experiences and knowledge of the participants themselves, who generate the conceptual framework in an interactive way.
Educational activity is configured as a double-track system where teachers and students build together and share responsibilities about the learning process where the objective is to see the maximum possible cases to understand the complexity of what it implies Raise a solution to a programming problem.
Computation
The teaching management of the subject will be done through the documentary manager Campus Virtual (http://cv.uab.cat/), which will be used to view the materials, manage the groups of practices,make thecorresponding deliveries, to see the notes, to communicate with the teachers, etc.
In the development of the subject, three types of teaching activities can be differentiated:
Transversal competences
The competence that will be worked on and evaluated throughout the course is T01.02 - Develop the capacity for analysis, synthesis and prospecting. It will shoot throughout the sessions of the different types of activities planned and will be evaluated mainly in the evaluation tests and in the delivery of the practices.
Annotation: Within the schedule set by the centre or degree programme, 15 minutes of one class will be reserved for students to evaluate their lecturers and their courses or modules through questionnaires.

IMPORTANT: This subject does not have "unique assessment" system.
Planning and recovery of programmed evaluation activities
The subject is divided into two blocks:
The first nine (9) weeks will be devoted to the study of The programming will count 60% of the final grade value (Block A).
The following six (6) weeks will be devoted to the study of the computer and will count 40% of the value of the final mark (Block B).
The two blogs will be evaluated independently. To obtain the final note the two parts must be approved separately (Note> = 5).
The final grade of the subject will be: 60% block A + 40% block B

Overall, for both blocks
Both the theory and practices (labs) parts must be passed with a grade of 5 or higher, regardless. Practices are mandatory as well as attendance at all sessions. To pass the labs you have to do it one at a time. Only in extraordinary cases will it be possible to access the re-evaluation of the labs, always at the discretion of the teaching staff of the subject.
The grade for each block is obtained from the weighted sum of the assessment activities with their corresponding percentage. The result of the weighted sum must be >= 5 to consider each block approved.
The Theory part (T) will be assessed with an individual written exam. There is a first individual exam corresponding to the first block (block A) and another to the second (block B). In the case of not passing any of these tests, there will be a recovery on the day we have assigned to the week of recovery in January/February where you can recover the tests that have not been passed in the partial exams. The minimum grade to pass each test is 5.
Thedates of evaluation and delivery ofassignments will be published in the document manager chosen by each block (Caronte (block A) or UAB Virtual Campus (block B)) and may be subject to schedule changes for reasons of adaptation to possible incidents. S 'will report the changes through the document managerbecause it is understood that this is the usual platform for exchanging information between teachers and students.
Grade review procedure
Students will have the right to review the theoretical exams (T). The place, date and time of the review will be published on the day the notes are published. If the student does not appear for this review, it will not be reviewed later. Only injustified cases can a review be made after the set date and always up to a maximum of 7 calendar days later.
The marks of the laboratory practice (PL) will not be reviewed because the assessment is done in front of the students.
Qualifications
Final grade: Both blocks will be evaluated independently. In order to obtain the file grade, the two blocks must be approved separately (Grade >= 5).
The grade for each block comes from the weighted sum according to the criteria set out in the assessment activities section. If the theory (T) or the practices (PL) have a grade lower than 5, the grade will be based on the following formula: Minimum (apply weighted sum and 4.5).
The final grade of the academic record is obtained according to the final grading table:
Programming (Block A) |

Note> = 5 |
Note <5 |
<pdir="ltr">NA | ||
Computation (Block B) |
Note> = 5 |

Not Assessable (NA): Any student who delivers a practice or scheduled activity will receive a grade. It will only be considered non-evaluable, overall, if any evaluable activity is delivered. In case of the student delivers a practice or scheduled activity in one of the blocks but not in the other, it will be considered that the block that has not presented anything will have a 0.
Honors matriculations: Awarding an honors matriculation qualification is the decision of the teaching staff responsible for the subject. UAB regulations indicate that MH can only be granted to students who have obtained a final grade equal to or higher than 9.00 and their number cannot exceed 5% of the total number of enrolled students.
In the event that the number of students with a grade greater than or equal to 9 is more than 5% of the total enrolled, the criteria to be applied in the order listed below will be the following:
Irregularities by the student, copying …
Without prejudice to other disciplinary measuresthat are deemed appropriate, and in accordance with current academic regulations, irregularities committed by a student that may lead to a variation in the grade will be graded with a zero (0). For example, plagiarizing, copying, allowing copying... an assessment activity will result in failing that assessment activity with a zero (0). Assessment activities qualified in this way and for this reason will not be recoverable. If it is necessary to pass any of these assessment activities to pass the subject, this subject will be suspendeddirectly, with no opportunity to recover it in the same course.
Evaluation of repeating students
Anyone who repeats the subject and has one of the two blocks fully approved (Theory (T) and Practices (PL) of the block, with grades >=5) will not need to re-evaluate this block the following year.
For block A, if the subject "Programming methodology" was passed in the previous year and the review exercises proposed in that subject were approved, a summary assessment of the block can be made, without having to do all the evaluation activities of the block. In this case, the mark of the block will be 5.
To be able to opt for this differentiated assessment, the interested person must expressly request it from the teaching staff by email to: for the overcome Programming block (xavier.roca@uab.cat or robert.benavente@uab.cat) for the overcome Computing block (miquelangel.senar@uab.cat) no later than 15 days after the start of classes ineach Block.
It is the student's responsibility to check that the responsible teaching staff correctly publishes the grade obtained in the course that is ending. Under no circumstances are notes kept of any of the evaluation activities of a block that has been suspended in a previous course, as could be the case of having suspended the theory and having passed the practices of a block.
Note: The proposed assessment may undergo some modification depending on anyrestrictions on attendance imposed by the health authorities.
