CONTINUOUS ASSESSMENT

The module will be assessed through the following activities:

• Assignment 1: Individual critical reviews of articles and a presentation with graphic support to be determined. Due approximately in the second week of April.
• Assignment 2: Individual in-person exam/critical reviews of articles and a presentation with graphic support to be determined. Due/completed during the month of May.
• Classroom activities/exercises.

The final grade will be the weighted average of the planned activities. To apply this criterion, the following must be achieved:

• Obtain at least a 5 in the two required assignments,
• Complete at least 80% of the classroom activities/exercises with sufficient quality and commitment.
• Proof of 80% attendance.

If these criteria are not met, the course will be considered "Not Assessable."
For failed assignments (grades 1 and 2) (more than 3.5), there will be the option to make up the assignments by submitting a new, improved assignment based on the instructor's instructions.
Due to their nature, exercises/activities completed in class cannot be made up.
Late submissions, corrections, improvements, resubmissions, make-ups, etc., will be marked with a maximum of 6.5. Make-up assignments must be submitted no later than two weeks after receiving the correction/feedback, and the final assignment must be submitted by June 20th.
All assignments (individual and group) will be considered for linguistic accuracy, writing, and formal presentation. Students must be able to express themselves fluently and accurately and demonstrate a high level of understanding of academic texts. An assignment may be returned (not graded) or failed if the instructor deems it does not meet these requirements. To pass this subject, students must demonstrate good general communicative competence, both orally and in writing, and a good command of the language(s) used.
Class attendance is mandatory. To obtain a positive final evaluation, students must have attended at least 80% of the classes.
Feedback and return of tests and assessment activities will be provided within a maximum of 20 business days.
The review process for exams/assignments will be carried out individually and in person.
Cheating and plagiarism are intellectual theft and, therefore, constitute a crime punishable by a zero for the entire block in which the work is located. In the case of cheating between two students, if it is not possible to determine who copied from whom, the penalty will be applied to both students. We would like to remind you that "cheating" is considered to be any work that reproduces all or a large part of the work of another classmate. "Plagiarism" is the act of presenting all or part of an author's text as one's own, that is, without citing the sources, whether published in print or digitally on the Internet (see UAB documentation on plagiarism at: http://wuster.uab.es/web_argumenta_obert/unit_20/sot_2_01.html).
For this subject, the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies is permitted exclusively for translation tasks and for spelling, syntax, and grammar correction of texts, and also for those tasks specifically indicated by the faculty. Students must clearly identify which parts and what work has been done with these applications and how it has influenced the process and the final result of the assigned activity, task, etc. Lack of transparency in the use of AI in activities, assignments, etc. will be considered academic dishonesty and will result in the failure of said activity with the resulting evaluative implications. In all cases, an "alternative" in-person retake will be carried out.

 

SINGLE ASSESSMENT

Students who opt for the single assessment have the same attendance requirements as their peers taking the continuous assessment. They must create a learning folder/portfolio (digital and/or paper format, to be determined by the faculty) with the following content

• Standard cover page of the master's degree
• Comprehensive index
• All activities proposed to the group in the classroom, Moodle, etc., including a summary of the final reflection completed as a group (or individually if this has not been completed).
• Assignment 1: Individual critical reviews of articles and multimedia presentation with graphic support to be determined.
• Assignment 2: Individual in-person exam/critical reviews of articles and multimedia presentation with graphic support to be determined.

The learning folder/portfolio with all the evidence will be delivered on the day established for students enrolled in continuous assessment: the individual in-person test and/or the submission of critical reviews of articles and a presentation with graphic support to be determined.

For the remaining elements (minimum criteria for being assessed or considered "not assessable," attendance, weighting of work in the final grade, language proficiency and comprehension of academic texts, use of AI, remediation/revision, consideration of plagiarism/copying, etc.), the same criteria will apply as for students participating in continuous assessment.
