Evaluation

This subject does not offer a single assessment system

If the criteria for averaging are met, then the final mark for the course will be calculated using the weightings described in this section. Otherwise, it will be necessary to recover the affected activities in order to make up the average. A minimum of 5 out of 10 points is required to pass the course.  

To assess the degree of achievement of the competences, the following instruments and weightings will be used:

Exams

There will be two partial exams with a weighting of 15% each, in which students will have to answer questions on theoretical and applied concepts. The minimum mark for weighting is 3.5 out of 10.

These activities are compulsory. In order to have access to the recovery it is necessary to have done 80% of the evaluable activities and to have taken the 2 mid-term exams. 

Practical work

These activities are compulsory and it is necessary to have at least a mark of 3.5 out of 10 in each of them, otherwise it will be necessary to recover the affected activities. Practical work is worth 40% of the overall mark for the course.

Deliveries after the deadline:

• The late delivery of the practices will imply a penalty of 20% of the obtained mark. 

These activities are compulsory and recoverable.

Self-study activities

They will have a weight of 15% provided that at least 80% of the activities have beencarried out, otherwise the mark for this part will be a zero. There is no minimum grade for these activities.

Deliveries after the deadline:

• The delivery of these activities late and up to 48 hours after the deadline, will imply a penalty of 20% on the grade obtained.
• The late delivery of activities after this 48-hour margin willmean that they will be counted as not having been completed for the evaluation.

These activities are not mandatory, but they are not recoverable either.

Continuous training and evaluation

It is reminded that the evaluation will be made according to the contents commented by the teacher in class, and that, therefore, attendance in person is highly recommended since not all the information will be accessible on the virtual campus.

In addition, during the course there will be a continuous assessment and it will be necessary to have participated in 80% of the assessment activities for them to be weighted at 15%, otherwise the mark for this part will be a zero. Standard teaching innovation tools will be used to control class participation. There is no minimum mark for these activities.

These activities are not mandatory, but they are not recoverable either.

NA: Not applicable

1: Compulsory participation implies that non-participation will have to be recovered in order to be weighted, and if it is not done, it will not be possible to average, and therefore the subject will not be approved either. Voluntary participation implies that it is not compulsory but that it cannot be recovered later.

2: Value of minimum participation to weight, otherwise the activities will count as 0.

3: Minimum mark of 10 points to be weighted with the rest, if the minimum is not reached, the specific activity will have to be recovered, regardless of the rest of the marks of the same type

4: When the activity is recoverable, it must be recovered if the minimum mark is not obtained. In case of non-recoverable activity, the mark cannot be recovered, and therefore it will be weighted to the final mark, even if it is 0 orless than any threshold.

5: Weight value if the previous criteria are met

*: For participations of less than 75%, the practical activities may be penalized proportionally to the lack of attendance
