The competencies of this subject will be assessed through continuous evaluation, which will include individual tests on theoretical and practical knowledge.

The evaluation system is organized into three sections, each evaluated independently and assigned a specific weight in the final grade of the subject:

1. Continuous assessment tests (30% of the overall grade): This section assesses, throughout the course, the students' theoretical and practical knowledge through virtual exercises on the Moodle and/or Teams platform, and exercises at the end of each practical session. To pass this part, both the Moodle and the practical exercises would be pass with a mark equal o higher than 5.

2. Written tests (50% of the overall grade): This section individually assesses, through multiple-choice exams, the knowledge acquired by each student (see the course schedule).

3. Image recognition (20% of the overall grade): This section individually assesses, through multiple-choice exams related to image recognition, the practical knowledge acquired by each student (see the course schedule).

Students who have obtained a grade lower than 5 (out of 10) either in the written tests or in the image recognition tests must take the corresponding resit exam. In this resit exam, both parts must be retaken, regardless of whether one of them was passed in the partial exam.

The continuous assessment part cannot be retaken, so a student who has obtained a grade below 5 in this section will only be able to achieve a maximum grade of 7 (since they will have lost the 3 points from the continuous assessment).

Passing the subject

To pass the subject, a minimum of 5 points out of 10 must be obtained in each of the previously described evaluation tests, following the specified criteria.

The student's participation in any recovery exam implies renouncing the previously obtained grade.

To participate in the recovery, the student must have been previously evaluated in a set of activities whose weight is equivalent to a minimum of two-thirdsof the total grade of the subject. Therefore, the student will receive the grade of "Not assessable" when the evaluation activities carried out have a weighting of less than 67% in the final grade.

Single assessment:

Students who opt for the Single Assessment will have to take two tests:

• Partial Exam (PE) which will beheld on the officially designated day and will comprise 3 subtests similar to those described above. This exam will account for 70% of the final grade of the subject.
• Microscope Exam (ME): This will consist of identifying different tissues or structures related to the subject matter under the microscope. This exam will account for 30% of the final grade of the subject.

To pass the Single Assessment and the subject, it is essential to obtain a score equal to or greater than 5 in both the Partial Exam and the Microscope Exam.

Students who do not take the theoretical and practical assessment tests will be considered as Not Assessed, losing their rights to enroll in the subject.

Claims for defects in the response sheet of the various assessment tests will not be accepted.
