Continuous Assessment, which will consist of:
a) A written exam on the content of the first part (33%)
b) A text commentary exercise on the content of the first part (33%)
c) Video essay based on the contents of the second part (33%)
The Department of Philosophy agreed that the first-semester students would have two periods dedicated to assessment activities and one week during which students could specifically prepare for the exams, in the format that each instructor will specify at the beginning of the course. The dates for the review week and the assessment periods are:
Single Final Assessment, which will consist of:
A written exam made up of three different parts, equivalent to the three components of the continuous assessment. Each part is worth 33%.
On carrying out each evaluation activity, lecturers will inform students of the procedures to be followed for reviewing all grades awarded, and the date on which such a review will take place.
Recovery
In the case of continuous evaluation, students who have failed one, two or all three tests may sit a re-evaluation and recovery the test or tests they have failed. In order to be re-evaluated, it will be necessary tohave taken at least two of the three tests.
If a student has not taken any of the tests, or has only taken one of the tests, he/she will be considered "not evaluable".
All three tests must be passed in order to pass the course. The final mark will be the average mark of the three tests.
In the case of a single evaluation, the reevaluation will consist of a written exam in which allthe contents will be evaluated.
In the event that the student makes any irregularity that may lead to a significant variation in the grade of an evaluation act, this evaluation act will be gradedwith 0, regardless of the learning process that may be instructed. In case of several irregularities in the assessment acts of the same subject, the final grade of this subject will be 0.
This subject entirely prohibits the use of AI technologies in all of its activities. Any submitted work that contains content generated using AI will be considered academic dishonesty; the corresponding grade will be awarded a zero, without the possibility of reassessment. In cases of greater infringement, more serious action may be taken.
