ONGOING EVALUATION

All the evaluation activities are compulsory, in case of not presenting it will be graded as Not Evaluable (NA) and will be quantified as zero (0). The evaluation of the subject is structured as follows:

1. (OE1) Objective test (scientific methodology exam): multiple-choice test: 35%.
2. (OE2) Objective test (Biostatistics exam): multiple-choice test: 35%.
3. (OE3) Submission of literature review (Scientfic methodology): 15%.
4. (OE4) Submission of written works_data analysis (Biostatistics): 15%.

The final mark of the course is the weighting of the 4 ongoing assessment tests. In order to pass the course a minimum of 5.0 in the final grade is required. If the ongoing assessment is failed, the student may sit the retake exam. It must be taken into account that, according to general regulations, in order to take part in the final exam, students must have been previously assessed in a set of activities whose weight is equivalent to a minimum of two thirds of the total grade of the subject. This retake exam will include the entire syllabus of the failed assessment test.

Use of IA: 

The use of Artificial Intelligence technologies (IA) for this subject is allowed exclusively in support tasks such as proofreading or translations or audiovisual support. The use of IA in support tasks such as bibliographic or information search or any other knowledge generation task is prohibited. The student will have to clearly identify which parts have been generated with this technology, specify the tools used, include a critical reflection on how these have influenced the process and the final result of the activity and reference them (as specified in Bibliography). The non-transparency of the use of IA in this evaluable activity will be considered academic dishonesty and may result in a total penalty in the grade of the activity, or higher penalties in serious cases.

Retake:

1. Any student who has taken at least two thirds of the total grade of the subject  is entitled to retake the exam.
2. The final mark will be the result of the weighting of the retake tests with the continuous assessment tests passed.
3. In order to pass the course having taken a recovery test, it is necessary to obtain a minimum of 5.0 in the final mark.

Definition of NOT ASSESSABLE (NA): it will be understood as Not Assessable (NA) that situation in which the student does NOT present 50% or more of the evaluation activities.

Test Review: all students have the right to review the evaluation tests by appointment with the corresponding teacher. Thereview will consist of an individual tutoring session in which students will receive feedback regarding their evaluation.

The treatment of particular cases will be made from a teaching committee (formed by the subject coordinator,and 2 of the teachers of the same, 1 from each department involved) where the particular situation of each student will be evaluated and the mostappropriate decisions will be taken.

 

ONE-TIME EVALUATION:

Students who wish to add to the single evaluation must do so following the deadlines established by academic management. The same day of the single evaluation will be evaluated the whole course with its corresponding evaluation activities.  One-time evaluation will be a multiple-choice test with the following content:

• questions related to the overall content of the subject (scientific methodology and biostatistics), as well as the contents of laboratory and classroom practices.
• questions on thecritical reading of an original article. This original article will be made available to students via Moodle and must be printed out on the day of      the  evaluation. As an example, look at the health Impacto en la salud del programa de intervencióncomunitaria «Educación para la salud en la adolescencia»

The final mark of the single evaluation is the mark of the multiple-choice test.. In order to pass the subject with One-time evaluation it is necessary to obtain a minimum of 5.0 in the final grade.

Definition of NOT ASSESSABLE (NA): Not Assessable shall be understood as the situation in which the student does NOT sit for the single evaluation exam.

The retake ofthe one-time evaluation takes place on the same day as the retake of the ongoing evaluation. In the retake exam, the student is assessed on the failedtest/s. The number of exams and structure will be the same asfor the one-time evaluation. The calculation of the final mark for the subject follows the same criteria.

The review of the final score (including that of the retake) follows the same procedureas for the ongoing evaluation.
