The objective of the assessment process is to verify that the student has achieved the knowledge and skills defined in the objectives of the subject, as well as the associated competences.

3 types of activities will be assessed independently, and the weighted sum of them will give the final grade. These activities are:

1. Theory (T)
2. Solution of the practical projects in laboratory (PL)
3. Completion of practical exercises (EXER).

The Theory (T) part will be assessed with two individual partial exams throughout the course. The final grade of Theory will come from the weighted sum of the two exams (0.5 * Control 1 + 0.5 * Control 2). There will be a second chance to recover that part on the day at June we have assigned to. Parts that have not been passed in the partial theory exams may be recovered separately. The minimum grade to pass this part of Theory is > = 5. In the recovery only the failed exams can be recovered, the grade obtained cannot be raised (in the case of passing the Theory part). The maximum grade that can be obtained in recovery is 7.

The part of Practical projects (PL) will be evaluated by group. There are three deliveries. The final grade will come from the weighted sum of the three deliveries (X0 * Delivery 1 + X1 * Delivery 2 + X2 * Delivery 3, X0 + X1 + X2 = 1). There will be 3 short and written exams for individual validation of the practical projects in the class schedule (the third exam in the schedule established by the coordination for the second partial exams in June). Practical projects (PL) = Lab * Validation. To pass the PL the minimum mark will have to be >= 5. It cannot be recovered. These sessions are mandatory. 

The practical exercises (EXER) will be done in groups of 2 people and will consist ofworkingon very specific programming problems, short and related to those found in laboratory practices. We want each student to study the solution of a set of specific problems in isolation in the most general case of the practice. The value of these exercises is 20% of the final grade and given their nature and purpose are not recoverable.

The final grade of the subject will be the weighted sum of the grades of each of the activities: 50% of Theory, 20% Resolution of practical exercises and 30% of Resolution of practical projects. The result will have to be >= 5.

In case a student does not pass the subject due to not reaching the minimum score in any of the mandatory parts (Theory or Practical projects), even though the weighted average is equal or superior to 5, the final grade of the subject will be 4.5.

In the event that the average does not reach 5, the official grade will be the average mark obtained numerically.

If the student delivers any activity, it is understood that he/she is participating in the subject and will be evaluated. If you do not deliver any activity, then it can be considered Non-evaluable.

Granting an honorific matriculation qualification is a decision of the faculty responsible for the subject. The regulations of the UAB indicate that MH can only be awarded to students who have obtained a final grade of 9.00 or more. It can be granted up to 5% of MH of the total number of students enrolled.

The dates of continuous evaluation and assignment delivery will be published on the virtual campus and may be subject to possible changes to adapt to possible incidents; the virtual campus will always inform about these changes since it is understood that the CV is the usual mechanism for exchanging information between professors and students.

For each assessment activity, a place, date and time of revision will be indicated in which the student will be able to review the activity with the professor. In this context, claims can be madeaboutthe activity grade, which will be evaluated by the professors responsible for the subject. If the student does not submit to this review, this activity will not bereviewed later.

SUMMARY

If ((T> = 5) i (PL> = 5)) then

       NF = 0.5 * T + 0.2 * EXER + 0.3 * PL

       If (NF> = 5) then PASS

       else FAIL

else FAIL

Repeating students: repeating students who have passed laboratory exercices in previous editions of the subject may request the validation of this part of the subject. The rest of the assessment activities must be carried out under the same conditions as the other students.

Single Assessment Evaluation: This subject DOES NOT HAVE SINGLE ASSESSMENT EVALUATION.

Note about plagiarism:

Without prejudice to other disciplinary measures deemed appropriate, and in accordance with the current academic regulations, irregularities committed by a student who mayleadto a variation of the qualification in an assessable activity will be graded with zero (0). Assessment activities qualified in this way and by this procedure will not be recoverable. If it is necessary to pass any of these assessment activities to pass the subject, this subject will be suspended directly, without opportunity to recover it in the same course. These irregularities include, among others:

• the total or partial copy of a lab exercice, report, or any other evaluation activity;
• let another student to copy;
• present a group work not done entirely by the members of the group (applied to all members and not only to those who have not worked);
• present as own materials prepared by a third party, even if they aretranslationsor adaptations, and generally works with non-original and exclusive elements of the student;
• unauthorizedAI use (i.e. Copilot, ChatGPT o equivalents);
• have communication devices (such as mobile phones, smart watches, pens with camera, etc.) accessible during theoretical-practical assessment tests (individual exams);
• talk with classmates during the individual theoretical-practice tests (exams);
• copy or attempt to copy from other students during the theoretical-practical assessment tests (exams);
• use or attempt to use written material related to the subject during the theoretical-practical evaluation tests (exams), when these have not been explicitly allowed.

If you do not pass the subject due to the fact that some of the evaluation activities do not reach the minimum grade required, the numerical official grade will be the lowest value between 4.5 and the weighted average of the grades. With the exceptions that the "Non-Appraising" qualification will be awarded to students who do not participate in any of the assessment activities, and that the numerical official grade will be the lowest value between 3.0 and the average Weighted grades in case the student has committed irregularities in an evaluation act (and therefore the subject cannot beapproved by compensation). In future editions of this subject, the student who has committed irregularities in an evaluation act will not be validated any of the assessment activities carried out.

In summary: copy, let copy or plagiarize (or attempt) in any of theassessment activities will lead to a FAIL, not compensable and without validations of parts of the subject in subsequent courses.
