* "Students who choose continuous assessment" conditions: A student follows the continuous assessment system if she/he assigns a document that will be delivered and collected during weeks 1-3, so the collaborative work can begin. If a student has participated in continuous assessment and does not pass the course he/she will receive a grade of fail, regardless of he/she takes the written exam or not. CONDITIONS TO PASS THE SUBJECT In order to ensure that students acquire a balanced minimum on the subject competences, they will pass the course if they meet these two conditions: 1) get a final mark equal to or greater than 5 (on a ten-points scale) 2) and a score equal to or greater than 4 (on the same scale) in each of the partial marks (written exam and collaborative group, respectively). If some of these conditions are not fulfilled, then the final grade (on a ten-points scale) will be the minimum between the final mark and the value "4". * "Students who choose for exam-only assessment" conditions: The possibility of a final examination will be provided to students who do not opt for the continuous assessment. In order to ensure that students acquire a balanced minimum on the subject competences, they will pass the course if they meet both these two conditions: 1) get a final mark equal to or greater than 5 (on a ten-points scale) 2) and a score equal to or greater than 4 (on the same scale) in each of the sections of the exam. These sections, respectively, correspond with: * contents included in all activities * project developed in group, including group internals, management, writing of technical reports and oral presentations. If some of these conditions are not fulfilled, then the final grade (on a ten-points scale) will be the minimum between the final mark and the value "4". --- SECOND CALL Two different situations: => Students that are evaluated using continuous assessment: Two options to choose (just before the exam begins): * repeat the written exam included in the continuous assessment planning an be evaluated under the "Students who choose continuous assessment" conditions, described above. * be evaluated with the same final exam of students who choose for exam-only assessment, under the "Students who choose for exam-only assessment" evaluation conditions, described above. No other activities are considered. => Students who choose for exam-only assessment: A final examination will be provided to students who do not opt for the continuous assessment, and are evaluated under the "Students who choose for exam-only assessment" conditions, described above.
