The grade will be evaluated taking into account the weights and criteria discussed below in this section, in the event that the criteria for averaging are met. Otherwise, the affected activities will have to be recovered. A minimum of 5 points out of 10 must be obtained to pass the subject.

To evaluate the degree of achievement of the competencies, the following instruments and weights will be used:

Exams

There will be two partial exams of the theoretical part, one for each part of the course. The theory part is worth 40% of the overall mark for the course. The minimum mark for weighting is 3.5 out of 10.

These activities are compulsory. In order to have access to the recovery it is necessary to have done 80% of the evaluable activities, and to have taken the 2 partial exams.

 

Practical work and field activities

These activities are compulsory, both in terms of attendance and delivery. You must have at least a grade of 3.5 in each of the activities, otherwise it will be necessary to recover the affected activities. Practical activities are worth 40% of the overall mark for the course.

Deliveries after the deadline:

• The late delivery of the activities will imply a penalty of 20% of the obtained mark.

These activities are mandatory. The deliveries of the works are recoverable but not the attendance, which must be at least 75%. Otherwise, these activities may be penalized proportionally to the lack of attendance.

 

Self-study activities

They will have a weight of 10% provided that at least 80% of these activities have been carried out, otherwise the mark for this part will be a zero. There is no minimum mark for these activities.

Deliveries after the deadline:

• The delivery of these activities late and up to 48 hours after the deadline, will imply a penalty of 20% on the grade obtained.
• The late delivery of activities after this 48-hour margin will mean that they will be counted as not having been completed for the evaluation.

These activities are not mandatory, but they are not recoverable either.

 

Continuous training and evaluation

It is reminded that the evaluation will be made according to the contents commented by the teacher in class, and that, therefore, attendance in person is highly recommended since not all the information will be accessible on the virtual campus.

In addition, during the course there will be a continuous assessment and it will be necessary to have participated in 80% of these assessment activities for them to be weighted at 10%, otherwise the mark for this part will be a zero. Standard teaching innovation tools will be used to control class participation. There is no minimum mark for these activities.

These activities are not mandatory, but they are not recoverable either.

 

Summary of criteria and weights for the evaluation of the subject

	Participation1	minimum Participation2	minimum Mark3	Exercise recoverable4	Weighting5
Partial Exams	Compulsory	100%	3.5	Compulsory	40%
Practical        activities
Deliveries	Compulsory	100%	3.5	Compulsory	40%
Attendance	Compulsory	≥75%	NA	Unrecoverable	*
Self-  study	Volunteer	≥80%	NA	Unrecoverable	10%
Continued appraisal	Volunteer	≥80%	NA	Unrecoverable	10%

NA: Not applicable

1: Compulsory participation implies that non-participation will have to be recovered in order to be weighted, and if it is not done, it will not be possible to average, and therefore the subject will not be approved either. Voluntary participation implies that it is not compulsory but that it cannot be recovered later.

2: Value of minimum participation to weight, otherwise the activities will count as 0.

3: Minimum mark of 10 points to be weighted with the rest, if the minimum is not reached, the specific activity will have to be recovered, regardless of the rest of the marks of the same type

4: When the activity is recoverable, it must be recovered if the minimum mark is not obtained. In case of non-recoverable activity, the mark cannot be recovered, and therefore it will be weighted to the final mark, even if it is 0 or less than any threshold.

5: Weight value if the previous criteria are met

*:  For participations of less than 75%, practical activities may be penalized in proportion to the lack of attendance

 

Single assessment

This course does not include a single assessment system.

 

Use of AI

In this course, the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies is permitted as an integral part of the development of coursework, provided that the final result reflects a significant contribution from the student in terms of personal analysis and reflection. The student must clearly identify which parts have been generated using this technology, specify the tools employed, and includea critical reflection on how these tools have influenced the process and the final outcome of the activity. Lack of transparency in the use of AI will be considered academic dishonesty and may result in a penalty to the activity grade or more severe sanctions in serious cases.
