Three types of activities will be evaluated independently and the weighted sum of them will give the final grade. These three activities are:

• Synthesis tests (PS exams)
• Evaluable exercises (EA)
• Practical project (P)

1. The first part (PS) consists of carrying out two partial tests in which the students will be evaluated individually. The minimum grade to pass each test is 5.

2. The second part (EA) will consist of the delivery of activities throughout the course. These activities can be in the form of exercises, questionnaires, reports, etc. and can be proposed within class sessions or can be proposed as homework to do at home. The final grade will come from the weighted sum of the set deliveries that are requested.

3. The third part (P) will be evaluated individually with the delivery of a project and the evaluation of a written test. The final grade will be obtained from the weighted sum of the group and individual grades. The project consists of different assignments throughout the course, the grades of which will make up the group grade. The minimum grade to pass the project is 5, while the individual exam must be passed with a minimum grade of 5. The final grade for this part must be at least 5.

The minimum grades of 5 will be 4 if students attend more than 50% of classes.

To pass the subject, it is necessary that the evaluation of each of the parts exceeds the minimum required and that the total evaluation exceeds 5 points.

RECOVERY

PS: In the case of failing or not appearing for any of the individual tests, they can be made up on the day assigned to the official exam week.

EA: This part will not have the possibility of being made up.

P: In the event of failing the written project test (must have been submitted the first time), it can be recovered on the day assigned to the official exam week. Partial project submissions can be recovered in the following submissions, with afinal grade of 80% of the improvement in thegrade.

REVIEW OF QUALIFICATIONS

The review of exam grades will be done on the day indicated by the professor after each exam.

The review of submissions will be requested by e-mail and may be in person, non-face-to-face or by e-mail.

HONORARY ENROLLMENT

As many enrolments as possible within the university regulations will be given, provided that the final grade obtained is at least a 9.

NOT ASSESSABLE

Not having presented any assessable part of the subject.
The parts of the subject not presented have a grade of 0.

VALIDATION

Projects from previous years are not validated.

SUBJECT GRADE

Elements that will be evaluated:

Exams:

First theory part.

Second theory part.
Practice exam (verifies that work has been done in practice).
Theory retake exam (parts eliminate material).
Practice retake exam.
Problems:

Problems submitted by students.
Practice:

Practice submissions.
Theory Note: corresponds to two theory part exams on the subject. The part exams must be passed to eliminate material in the retake exam.
Problem Note: Corresponds to the note obtained for a series of problems that the student must submit. There is no retake for problem submissions.
Practice Note: In this section there is a note for the submissions and a note for the practice exam:

Submission Note: Corresponds to the note obtained in the practice submissions. Failed practical assignments can be made up in subsequent assignments. The value of the grade improvement will be 80%.
Practical exam grade: This is the score obtained in the practical exam. There will be a retake of the practical exam. The practical exam is given on the same day as the second part exam and the retake exam.
Class attendance is not mandatory but highly recommended to pass the subject.
There is automated class attendance control with the correction server.
Attendance and assessment of thesubject:
The minimum grade to be able to make an average will be 4 (MinAverage=4) if class attendance is greater than 50% of the classes. Otherwise, the minimum grade to make an average will be 5 (MinAverage=5).
This minimum grade applies to all exams, practical assignments and intermediate grades for theory and practicals.

The final grade for the subject is obtained by combining the evaluation of these three activities as follows:

The final grade for the subject is obtained by combining the evaluation of these three activities as follows:

If Theory Grade> = MinAverage and Practice Grade> = MinAverage THEN Final Grade = 0.4 * Theory Grade + 0.2 * Problem Grade + 0.4 * Practice Grade
ELSE Final Grade = MIN (Theory Grade, Practice Grade)
IF First Part Exam Grade>=MinAverage and Second Part Exam Grade>=MinAverage THEN Theory Grade = 0.5 * First Part Exam Grade + 0.5 * Second Part Exam Grade
ELSE Theory Grade = MIN (First Part Exam Grade, Second Part Exam Grade)
Problem Grade = Average of the problems submitted.
IF Practical exam grade >= MinAverage and Assignment grade>= MinAverage THEN Practical grade = 0.2 * Practical exam grade + 0.8 * Assignment grade
ELSE Practical grade = MIN(Practical exam grade, Assignment grade)
Submission grade = Weighted average of the practical assignments if they all exceed MinAverage, otherwise the minimum of the grades of the assignments.

The parts of the subject not presented have a grade of 0.

PLAGIA, COPIES, ETC:

Without prejudice to other disciplinary measures deemed appropriate, and in accordance with current academic regulations, irregularities committed by a student that may lead to a variation in the grade will be graded with a zero (0). Assessment activities graded 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 directly failed, with no opportunity to recover it in the same course. These irregularities include, among others:
- total or partial copying of a practice, report, or any other assessment activity;
- allowing copying;
- presenting a group work not done entirely by the group members;
- presenting as one's own materials prepared by a third party, even if they are translations or adaptations, and in general works with non-original and exclusive elements of the student;
- having communication devices (such as mobile phones, smart watches, etc.) accessible during individual theoretical-practical assessment tests (exams).

In summary: copying, allowing copying or plagiarism in any of the assessment activities is equivalent to a FAIL with a grade lower than 3.5.

USE OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE

A restricted use of AI is permitted. Usually to resolve doubts and facilitate learning. A use of AI that limits the student's learning will be considered as plagiarism or copying. So that the teacher can assess the illicit use of AI, he may ask students to explain how they have solved the problems or practices submitted. Not demonstrating that one has the necessary knowledge to do the work submitted will be considered as plagiarism.

COMMUNICATION

The dates of assessments and submissions will be published on the virtual campus and may be subject to possible changes in programming for reasons of adaptation to possible incidents. The Virtual Campus will always be informed about these changes since it is understood that this is the usual platform for exchanging information between teachers and students. The synchronous communication platform will preferably be Teams.

SINGLE EVALUATION

It will be evaluated in the same way as the continuous assessment. But with the following differences:

The practices and problems will be submitted on the day of the subject's retake exam. In this case, the practices do not have the possibility of recovery, since the student cannot correct and see the gradeas many times as he wants before submission.
Due to the fact that there is no monitoring of the student's work, it will be mandatory to take a practice validation exam, which must be passed.
The theory and practice exams will be held on the day of the subject's retake exam.
If necessary, students will be called to take the theory and practical retake exams.
