CONTINUOUS ASSESSMENT

The continuous evaluation is structured as follows:

• Theoretical tests (40%) consisting of:
• An individual essay connected with the theme of the semester-long project (30%). The expected delivery date is mid-November.
• A test of essential concepts (10%) on January 8.
• Practical activities (30%) concentrated on a semester-long group project that structures the content of the subject (CBL).This project will be conducted topic by topic, but the final presentation is scheduled for December 18.
• Autonomous activities (25%) conducted on two special sessions in October about compulsory readings or current issues. They are not mandatory, but not doing them implies not having this part of the evaluation. Attendance is mandatory to be able to deliver these activities.
• Attendance and active participation in class (5%)

The dates and content of the different evaluation tests will be specified on the first day of class.

On carrying out each evaluation activity, lecturers will inform students (on Moodle) of the procedures to be followed for reviewing all grades awarded, and the date on which such a review will take place.

SINGLE ASSESSMENT

To be eligible for the single assessment, the application must be made within the established deadlines. The information can be found on the faculty's website and will be explained on the first day of class.

The single assessment provides for a single delivery date for all assessment evidences.

Students in single assessment must carry out the following activities:

• Autonomous activities (30%) related to the preparation of compulsory readings or workshops related to current issues that will take place in two sessions in mid-October. The dates will be confirmed on the firstday of class. In single assessment, the student must attend but can make the delivery until the single assessment day.
• Six-monthly autonomous project (30%). Instructions will be provided during the first week of the course.
• Final exam (40%).

RECOVERY GUIDELINES

• To participate in the recovery, the students must have been previously evaluated in a set of activities whose weight equals to a minimum of 2/3 parts of the total grade (CONTINUOUS EVALUATION) or delivered all the evaluation activities (SINGLE EVALUATION).
• To participate in the recovery process, the student must have obtained a minimum grade of 3.5 in the average of the subject.
• The half-yearly project and tasks related to daily teaching activity are excluded from the recovery process.
• The same recovery system will be applied for single assessment as for continuous assessment.

OTHER INFORMATION

NOT EVALUABLE: Students will obtain a Not assessed/Not submitted course grade unless they have submitted more than 30% of the assessment items.

ERASMUS: Erasmus students who request to advance an exam must submit to the teacher a written document from their home university that justifies their application.

COPY AND PLAGIARISM: In the event of a student committing any irregularity that may lead to a significant variation in the grade awarded to an assessment activity, the student will be given a zero for this activity, regardless of any disciplinary process that may take place. In the event of several irregularities in assessment activities of the same subject, the student will be given a zero as the final grade for this subject. Those evaluation activities in which there have been irregularities (copy, misuse of AI, etc.) are not recoverable.

USE OF AI:

This subject allows the use of AI technologies exclusively for support tasks such as brainstorming or support to structure the semester-long project. Other uses or these uses in the rest of the activities are completely restricted. In the semester-long project, the groups must include a section, within the methodology, to explain which parts have been generated using AI technology and which tools have been used. In the conclusions, they must include a critical reflection on how these have influenced the process and final outcome of the activity. Lack of transparency regarding the use of AI in this assessed activity will be considered academic dishonesty; the corresponding grade may be lowered, or the work may even be awarded a zero. In cases of greater infringement, more serious action may be taken.
