FIRST ENROLMENT STUDENTS

Continuous evaluation

Continuous evaluation consist of the following evaluation activities and percentages:

1. Two partial examinations (test format) related to theoretical content of the subject, and representing 25% of the final grade each. Every partial examination deals with different parts of the content.

To pass the course it is necessary to pass these two exams (Minimum: 5/10 each)). If one of the two partial exams is not taken the final grade will be "not assessable".

2. Several exercises related to the issues discussed in the seminar, which will represent 40% of the final grade.

3. Intervention in seminars. Student’s intervention and participation in the seminars will be assessed qualitatively (10% of the final grade).

Recuperation

In the event of failing one or both of partial exams, students are entitled to the revaluation: there is no minimum grade, but partial examination (or examinations) has/have to be taken. In the event that the second chance of one of the two exams isn’t passed, the final grade of the subject will be the one obtained in this exam (or the average, if both are failed).

Due to their current nature, there is no second chance for activities developed in seminars.

Single evaluation

Single evaluation consist of the following evaluation activities and percentages:

1. Knowledge control: 50% - Theoretical exam (test format) on the theoretical contents of the course. To pass the course it is compulsory to pass this exam
2. Completion and delivery of practical exercises: 40% - Delivery of four practical exercises or communication challenges, inked to current affairs and related to the contents of the subject worked on in the seminar.
3. Oral argumentation exercise: 10% It will take place on the same day as the knowledge control.

Recuperation

In the event of failing the knowledge control, students are entitled to second chance: there is no minimum grade, but the examination has to be taken.

SECOND ENROLMENT STUDENTS

In case of second (or third...) enrolment, students can choose between continuous examination (see above) and a single synthesis exam or final examination (test format) with second-chance option (no minimum grade, it is compulsory to have taken the examination in the first chance). The grading of the subject will correspond to the grade of the synthesis or final examination. In the event of failing the second chance examination, the final grade of the subject will be the one obtained in this (second chance) examination.

It will be understood that students from second registration who do not communicate explicitly by e-mail and within the deadline announced at the beginning of the course their evaluation option will take the synthesis test.

CALENDAR

Evaluation and reevaluation dates will be announced on the day of the presentation of the subject. Information will also be uploaded to Virtual Campus.

Plagiarism

In the event that the student performs any irregularity that may lead to a significant variation of an evaluation act, this evaluation act will be graded with 0, regardless of the disciplinary process that could be instructed. In the event, that several irregularities occur in the evaluation acts of the same subject, the final grade for this subject will be 0.
