This section of the Study Guide contains all information related to the process of evaluation of the module.
Assessment of the module:
In order to pass the module, the following aspects must be considered:
It is essential to respect the deadlines.
Each lecturer determines the way in which papers are to be submitted (through the Campus Virtual, by e-mail or in printed form, in the mailbox of the lecturer). The lecturers communicate the results of the evaluation through the established ways and establish a period of consultation before they communicate the grades to the coordinator of the module.
Within the "Life Histories" block a fieldwork stay is planned in Bonansa. Check the course Moodle to get more information about it.
In general, not submitting the documents that are to be evaluated results in the qualification "Not assessable". In exceptional, well justified cases, the Committee of the Master Program may propose an alternative procedure for the evaluation.
General criteria
Assessment is understood as a continued process throughout the term.
When completing each activity endorsed, the teacher will inform the student (Moodle) of the procedure and data for the review of grades.
The qualifications are made on a scale from 0-10 with one decimal. To pass the subject, a minimum final grade of 5.0 is needed, as a result of the assessment procedure explained above. Once the subject is passed, it cannot be subjected to a new evaluation.
The programming of assessment activities cannot be modified unless an exceptional and well justified reason exists for this, in which case a new program is proposed during the term.
When a student performs an irregularity that can lead to a significant variation of the qualification of an assessable activity, the activity will be qualified with a 0, independently of the disciplinary process that might follow. Inthe case that various irregularities in the assessable activities are found within the same module, the qualification of the module will be 0.
Students will obtain a Not assessed/Not submitted course grade unless they have submitted more than 30% of the assessment items. The qualification "not assessable" in the final records of evaluation implies the exhaustion of rights inherent in the enrolment to the module, although the "not assessable" module will not figure in the academic transcript.
Plagiarism:
In the event that the student commits any irregularity that could lead to a significant variation in the grade of an assessment act, this assessment act will be graded with 0, regardless of the disciplinary process that may be instructed. In the event of several irregularities in the evaluation acts of the same module, the final grade for this subject will be 0.
In the event that the evaluation activities cannot be done in situ, their format will be adapted (maintaining their weighting) to the possibilities offered by the UAB’s virtual tools. Homework, activities and participation in class will be done through forums, wikis and / or discussions of exercises through Teams, ensuring that all students can access
This subject/module does not incorporate single assessment.
