The follow-up of the development of the course gives rise to the continuous evaluation. The lecturers will appreciate its normal and gradual use in three aspects. Firstly (1), for the ability of students to improve quality in carrying out the exercises proposed in the classes (students must correctly quote and cite all data and information sources). Secondly (2), for their participation in the exercises and fieldwork (this is a 100% on-site course). And thirdly (3), for the results of the written exams. In the three aspects, lecturers will appreciate the students' correct comunication and linguistic skills, see: https://wuster.uab.es/web_argumenta_obert/

The student will have a ‘not assessed’ as a final grade if s/he hands 0% of course tasks or hands course tasks that correspond up to 1/3 of the total mark. In other words, if the student overcomes this threshold, s/he will be assessed and graded.

When evaluation activities take place, lecturers will inform students (via Moodle) of the possible procedures to be followed for reviewing all grades awarded, and the date on which such a review will take place.

Reassessment will be offered to those students who did a continuous and on-site course and failed the exams with at least a 4/10 mark. If that mark is not reached, students must repeat the written exam in the official re-assessment date (only the exam that did not reach the 4/10 mark). Only written exams can be re-assessed. 

This subject does NOT incorporate single assessment.

Attention: In the event of a student committing any irregularity that may lead to a significant variation in the grade awarded to an assessment activity (e.g. copy or plagiarism), the student will be given a zero (0) as the final grade for this subject and the subject may not be recovered.

This subject allows a restricted use of the so-called "Artificial Intelligence" (AI) tools, excusively in tasks of bibliographic or information search as well as preliminary correction or translation of texts for some practical activities. The generative AI gives errors or allucinations and it is always necessary that students revise everything before submission. When the use of AI is explicitly authorised in written form by the professor/s, students must in writing: 1) identify the parts that are generated with AI; 2) specify the tools used; and 3) include a critical reflection on how these tools have been influential in the process and results of the activity. The absence of transparency in the use of AI in evaluative activities may imply that the subject is qualified with zero (0) and/or stronger penalties in worse cases.
