Attitude in the laboratory. Attendance, organization and time management. Cleaning and care of the work area, punctuality, following of safety regulations. (It will be calculated as: 50% peer assessment and 50% professors assessment).	20%	0	0	5, 8, 9, 12, 11
Final examination	30%	0	0	4, 5, 10, 11

Attendance at laboratory sessions is mandatory to pass the subject. Each missed session deducts 1 point out of 10 from the laboratory attitude grade. Fractions of lateness will also be taken into account. Only those absences listed in the regulations of the School of Engineering will be treated as justified absences.

To pass the subject, in addition to attending the laboratory, it is necessary to have a minimum of 5/10 of the overall report grade and a 4/10 of the final exam grade. The final grade will be obtained by weighting each assessment activity according to the established percentages. This sum must be equal to 5.0 to pass. The final exam is mandatory. Students who do not obtain these minimums will have a final grade lower than 4. It should be noted that the final exam is non-retrievable, therefore failing it with a grade lower than that indicated above means not being able to pass the subject.

The dates of the practices, submission of reports, continuous assessment and the exam will be published on Moodle and may be subject to changes in programming for reasons of adaptation to possible incidents. Information will always be provided on Moodle about these possible changes since this is the platform for exchanging information between teachers and students. The schedule of the assessment activities will be given on the first day of the subject and will be made public on the subject's Moodle. The following schedule is expected:
- Compulsory attendance at the practice sessions: from week 1 to week 15. This includes mandatory attendance at the information session that takes place on the first day of the semester.
- Final exam of the subject.

For each assessment activity, a place, date and time of review will be indicated in which the student will be able to review the activity with the teaching staff. In this context, complaints may be made about the grade of the activity, which will be evaluated by the professor responsible for the subject. If the student does not attend this review, this activity will not be reviewed later.

Plagiarism or copying are considered examples of not having achieved the following learning outcomes: A) Assume and respect the role of the various members of the team, as well as the different levels of dependency of the team; B) Maintain a proactive and dynamic attitude with respect to the development of one's own professional career, personal growth and continuing education and C) Have a spirit of improvement.

Without prejudice to other disciplinary measures that may be deemed appropriate, irregularities committed by the student that may lead to a variation in the grade of an assessment act will be graded with a zero. Therefore, copying, plagiarism, cheating, allowing copying, etc. in any of the assessment activities will imply failing it with a zero. Assessment activities graded in this way and by this procedure will not be retaken. 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 retake it in the same course. The student's final grade will be less than 4.

Reports must be submitted electronically via Moodle, on the date stipulated in the calendar that will be published on Moodle. The accepted electronic format is pdf, with a maximum size of 15 Mb. Each day of delay in submitting the report will be penalized with 1 point out of 10 up to a maximum of 6 working days, at which point the report's grade will be 0. A guide will be published on Moodle with the format that reports must follow, which must be followed rigorously. Failure to follow these format guidelines for the preparation of reports will be penalized with 1 point out of 10. Additionally, a guide to the sections that must be included in the report and the style for preparing these sections will be made available to them.

Honors. Awarding an honors grade is the decision of the professor responsible for the subject. UAB regulations indicate that MHs mayonly be granted to students who have obtained a final grade equal to or greater than 9.00. Up to 5% of MHs of the total number of students enrolled may be granted. In the event that there are more students with a final grade greater than 9 than the percentage or fraction stipulated above, honors will be granted to the students with the highest final grades. Students will be considered non-assessable (NA) if they have not attended the practical laboratory sessions.

Any case of plagiarism, copying or any irregularity in any evaluation activity will be qualified with a 0.0 and the pertinent regulatory measures will be applied.

There is no cap treatment for repeating students.

This subject does not foresee the single evaluation system.

The use of AI is permitted to improve the writing and style of reports. However, generating original content with AI is strictly prohibited. If AI tools are used, their use must be explicitly declared and their purpose clearly identified within the report.
