Attendance and participation in all sessions (individual work) | 10% | 0 | 0 | CA41, CA42, CA43, KA42, SA32 |
Class work, problem solving, Case studies (Collaborative group work) | 30% | 0 | 0 | CA41, CA42, CA43, KA42, SA33 |
Critical analysis of bibliography and researchs (individual work) | 20% | 0 | 0 | KA42, KA43, KA44, SA32, SA33 |

To obtain a pass in the final mark for this module it is essential to pass (minimum mark of 5 out of 10) each of the assessment blocks: group work, written exam and individual work.
The specific dates will be given with the program at the beginning of the classes.
The marks for each paper or the exam will be available within 15-20 days after their submission.
Attendance to field trips is compulsory. Students must attend a minimum of 80% of seminars; otherwise, they will be deemed as "absent".
To pass this subject, students need to perform the proposed activities with a good communicative competence, both orally and in written papers in the languages specified in this teaching guide.
In this course, the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies is permitted as an integral part of the assignment, provided that the final result reflects a significant contribution from the student in their analysis and personal reflection. Students must clearly identify which components were generated with this technology, specify the tools used, and include a critical reflection on how they influenced the process and the final outcome of the assignment. Lack of transparency in the use of AI will be considered a breach of academic honesty and may result in a penalty in the assignment grade, or more severe sanctions in serious cases. The sanction will be decided specifically for each case.
In accordance with UAB regulations, plagiarism or copy of any paper will be punished with a grade of 0 on that paper, losing any possibility of remedial task.
The subject provides for a single assessment, which will consist of submitting or completing the four phases of continuous assessment.
For the recovery, it is necessary to have presented 66% of the assessment activities. For recovery, it will be necessary to present an application work and take an exam.
The single assessment must be requested within the deadlines and regulations of the faculty.
Assessment and recovery dates:
- Second week of January: final assessment (same for the ordinary assessment as for the single assessment)
- Fourth week of January: recovery (of the ordinary assessment and the single assessment)
A final summary test is allowed for repeat students. This test will be requested from the faculty at the beginning of the course. It will consist of the submission of an assignment (to be specified) and an exam.
