This subject recommends continuous assessment, but also provides the option of a single assessment.
The continuos Evaluation consists of:
A) The practical exercises that will be carried out in class will be in groups and individual (40%).
B) Final Project to develop a communication plan for a real company (40%).
C) Attendance and participation (20%).
REASSESSMENT
Students who have not reached a 3 in the Final Project will be able to reassess. If the reevaluation test did not reach 3, it would not be possible to average with the rest of the grades of the subject and would be considered suspended.
Students will be entitled to the revaluation of the subject. They should present a minimum of activities (case studies in class and final project) that equals two-thirds of the total grading.
Recoverable activities are the practical case studies made in class and the final project.
In the event that the student performs any irregularity that may lead to a significant variation of an evaluation act, this evaluation act will be graded with 0, regardless of the disciplinary process that could be instructed. In the event, that several irregularities occur in the evaluation acts of the same subject, the final grade for this subject will be 0.
SINGLE EVALUATION
This subject includes the possibility of a single evaluation that will be based on the following percentages:
A) 40% Theoretical test. Must be approved (5 or more) to pass the subject
B) 30% Practical exercise of a case study
C) 30% Final project: Relational communication plan of an organization
Notes:
-The single evaluation will have a single evaluation date. On this date, the student
must take at least one mandatory in-person test and on this same date submit the other activities.
-Important: In order to be eligible for the single evaluation, in-person attendance at the practical sessions of the subject will be necessary.
Single evaluation recovery
a) To be able to participate in the recovery process, the student must have previously been evaluated for at least 2/3 of the total assessable activities of the subject.
b) The theory test can only be retaken if the student has obtained a grade lower than 4.9. The retake test will consist of a written test to assess theoretical knowledge.
c) The grade obtained in the practical exercise of a case study will form part of the weighted average of the final grade. Only in the event of failing this test and if the student so wishes, will they be able to opt to retake it with a test of the same nature.
d) The final project of the subject (30%) is an assessable work that cannot be retaken if they fail it.
In the event that the student carries out any irregularity that could lead to a significant variation in the grade of an assessment act, this assessment act will be graded 0, regardless of the disciplinary process that may be initiated. In the event that several irregularities occur in the assessment acts of the same subject, the final grade for this subject will be 0.
Not Assessable
When it is considered that the student has not been able to provide sufficient evidence of assessment, has not carried out the practices and has not attended 50% of the classes, he will be classified as not assessable.

Students must clearly identify any parts generated with these technologies, specify the tools used, and include a critical reflection on how AI has
influenced the process and final outcome of the assignment. Failure to disclose the useof AI in this assessed activitywill be considered a breach of academic integrity and may result in a partial or total penalty to the assignment grade, or more serious sanctions in severe cases.
