- Flipped classroom in group: 35%
- Group work: 30%
- Writing exams: 35%
All the subject matter of the course contained in the explanations in class.
The timetable for the flipped classes and the group work will be agreed between the teacher and the students during the first two weeks of the course.
At the time of completion of each evaluation activity, the faculty will inform the students (Moodle) of the procedure and date of review of the grades.
- Single assessment
This assessment will take place on a single assessment date, this date will be confirmed by the teacher on the first day of class. The theoretical contents of the subject will be evaluated on the basis of three evidences: an individual work related to the subject of the course; reading of a monograph selected by the teacher; finally, a written test based on the theoretical contents of the subject:
- Individual work (35%)
- Test on the monograph (30%)
- Written test (35%)
Information about the work and the monograph will be provided by the teacher on the first day of class.
Recovery
- A student will be considered as "not evaluable" if he/she does not present the work and does not participate in the group flipped classroom.
- The recovery will consist of a global examination of the subject matter and will be held on the official dates established by the Faculty.
- In no case may recovery be consideredas a means of improving the qualification of students who have already passed the subject in the normal process of continuous assessment.
- Students may retake assessment activities they have failed or compensate for any they have missed, provided that those they have actually performed account for a minimum of 66.6% (two thirds) of the subject's final mark and that they have a weighted average mark of at least 3.5.
- The maximum note that can be obtained in the recovery is 5 (Approved).
The same assessment method for the continuous assessment and for the single assessement will be used
Revision
- The students will have the right to review the results of the tests carried out. the teacher will establish a specifi tutoring schedule to proceed with the comment of the evaluation activities carried out
- In the event of a student committing any irregularity that may lead to a significant variation in the grade awarded to an assessment activity, the student will be given a zero for this activity, regardless of any disciplinary process that may take place. The copy of written sources (internet, books, works, etc.) and presented as original is a 0 in the grade of the exercise or written test.
