Other comments on the Evaluation
The participation of students in any of the assessment activities of the subject will involve the assignment of a grade. Regarding this point, attendance at the laboratory sessions (two or more), realization of 20% of the exercises proposed by the professor and the realization of tests will be considered. The final grade of the subject at the end of the semester will be the sum of all the sections that make up the evaluation, provided that the required minimums are exceeded. If this is not the case, the qualification will be that of "Question exam". The final grade, if higher than 7 points, can be normalized so that the highest grade can be up to 10 points. In July In the call for the subject in July, the evaluation system will be similar, maintaining the grades obtained by the students through the problems and/or issues solving during the course and the laboratory experiments. In July, students may retrieve the section corresponding to the written tests (60%). To pass the subject a minimum grade of 3.5 points (of 10) must be achieved. The final grade will be the sum of all the sections, as long as the required minimums are exceeded. If it is not the case, the qualification that will appear in the record will be that of the weighted final test. In the case that this qualification in the July is lower than that obtained in the evaluation at the end of the term, the qualification that will appear will be the latter. Date, time and place of exams will be published in the official web of Marine Sciences Faculty: http://mar.uvigo.es/alumnado/examenes/ Finally, students are strongly requested to fulfil a honest and responsible behaviour. It is considered completely unacceptable any alteration or fraud (i.e., copy or plagiarism) contributing to modify the level of knowledge and abilities acquired in exams, evaluations, reports or any kind of teacher’s proposed work. Fraudulent behaviour may cause failing the course for a whole academic year. An internal dossier of these activities will be built and, when reoffending, the university rectorate will be asked to open a disciplinary record.
