1. Assessment Model

This course requires active student participation and considers regular class attendance as a means of integrating the different learning activities.

2. Requirements to Pass the Course

To pass the course, a minimum final grade of 5 is required, calculated as a weighted average of the 6 assessment activities. See the table below for the weight distribution of each activity.
For the calculation of this weighted average, the following criterion will be applied depending on course attendance:

• Students who do not attend class regularly (attendance below 70%): the average will only be calculated if the grade for each and every part is at least a 5.

Students will be considered “Not assessable” if they do not attend the partial exams and have not completed at least 50% of the continuous assessment.

SINGLE ASSESSMENT

This course/module does not include a single assessment system.

3. Resit

The resit will consist of a single exam covering all assessment blocks in which a grade below 4 was obtained or which were not completed by the established deadline. The maximum grade that can be obtained in the resit is 7.

4. Policy on Plagiarism in Academic Work or Written Exams

We remind you that, upon signing your enrollment, you agreed to the following:
“I DECLARE that the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona has informed me that (...) Plagiarism is the act of disclosing, publishing, or reproducing a work or part of it under the name of an author other than the original one, which constitutes an appropriation of ideas created by another person without explicitly acknowledging their origin. This appropriation infringes on that person’s intellectual property rights, and I am not authorized to do so under any circumstances: exams, assignments, practicals… Therefore, I COMMIT to respecting the regulations regarding intellectual property rights in relation to the teaching and/or research activities carried out by the UAB in the studies I am pursuing.”

In this course, the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies is permitted as an integral part of the development of assignments, provided that the final result reflects a significant contribution from the student in terms of analysis and personal reflection. The student must clearly identify which parts were generated using this technology, specify the tools used, and include a critical reflection on how these influenced the process and the final outcome of the activity. Lack of transparency in the use of AI will be considered academic dishonesty and will be treated as plagiarism, potentially resulting in a failing grade for the activity.

Exams: If students are found to have copied unauthorized content, all individuals involved will automatically fail without the possibility of resitting.
In cases of plagiarism in written assignments, each case will be evaluated individually and, in extreme cases, may result in a direct fail without the option to resit.
