At the time of carrying out each assessment activity, the teacher will inform the student (by Moodle) of the procedure and date of review of the qualifications.
When evaluating will be take in to account:
- Active participation in the activities of the face-to-face sessions.
- In order to pass the evaluation of the module, it is essential to accredit attendance at a minimum of 75% of the sessions, in accordance with the general regulations of the Master.
- To be able to pass the module, you have to pass the four areas: didactics, ICT, emotional education and life.And to have a note equal to or greater than 4 of each evaluative task to be able to receive the average grade.

- 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.
- Is allowed the restricted use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies exclusively in support tasks with the bibliographic or information fence and proofreading of all evaluation activities. It will be very important that the student has to clearly identify which parts they are generating with this technology, specify their undertakings and include a critical reflection on how these have influenced the process of the final result of the activity. The non-transparency of the use of AI in this evaluable activity is considered academic dishonesty and may result in a partial or total penalty in the grade of the activity, or higher penalties in serious case. The sanctions will result in a direct failure, without the possibility of recovery, of the evaluative activity.
The tasks for the evaluation of each of the parts of the Module are the following:
Didactics: Design of a didactic proposal about a piece according to the criteria and principles of didactics principles exposed. Reflections on different readings.
ICT: Elaboration of a situation of teaching and learning of musical education applying specific methodologies.
