Qualification Assurance Plan Recovery plan of the final qualification in the First Call This plan consists of the right to take a new exam, called the Ordinary exam, on the dates set by the centre, which will replace, if it is higher, the score previously obtained and will count for all purposes in the calculation of the final grade of the first call. This exam will be open to those students who: - Have not passed the subject during the Continuous Assessment (NEC < 5.0)
- Wish to improve the grade obtained by the Continuous Assessment method.
The ordinary examination will be based on the evaluation of problem-based learning in the parts of Block I: Circuit Theory (direct current, alternating current and three-phase current) and Block II: Electrical Machines. The practice part will also be evaluated with a test based on the circuit and machine simulation tool that will be used during the course. The ordinary examination will contain a theoretical part and a practical part. The student will pass the course when the Note of the Ordinary Examination (NEO) is greater or equal to 5.0 points out of 10, being also necessary to overcome the minimums established in the following table: Minimum Score | Theory (T) 80% | Block I | 40% | Block II | 40% | Practice(P) 20% | Blocks I+II | 40% | Once the minimums for each of the parts are exceeded, the NEO will be calculated as: NEO = 0.8-T + 0.2-P If the minimums are not passed, the score of the ordinary examination will be calculated as: NEO = min {4.0, NEO} Finally, the corresponding First Call Note (NPC) will be calculated from the Note of the Ordinary Examination (NEO) and the Note of the Continuous Evaluation Examination (NEC) as NPC = max {NEC, NEO} Recovery plan of the final qualification in the Second Call Students who have not passed the subject during the first call have the right again to a second exam, called Extraordinary or Second Call, on the dates set by the centre. It is understood that the mark obtained in the exam replaces, if it is higher, the mark obtained in the ordinary or first call exam. This exam will contain a practical part, in addition to the theoretical part. The evaluation system will be governed by the same scales and weightings as those established for the ordinary exam, so that the student will pass the subject when the score of the Extraordinary Examination (NEE) is greater than or equal to 5.0 points out of 10. Once the minimums for each of the parts have been passed, the Extraordinary Examination Note (NEE) will be calculated as: NEE = 0.8-T + 0.2-P If the minimums are not passed, the score of the extraordinary examination will be calculated as: NEE = min {4.0, NEE} Plan to improve the final rating Each and every student can access a plan to improve their final grade. The improvement plan consists of the right to take a new exam, coinciding with the ordinary or first call exam, on the dates set by the centre, whose grade will replace the one previously obtained, as long as it is higher than the one already obtained, and will count for all purposes as the only reference in the calculation of the final grade. It is understood that the mark obtained in the exam, in the event that it is higher than the mark obtained through the continuous assessment of the subject throughout the four-month period, replaces the aggregation of the marks of the partial tests of continuous assessment, the practice marks, the marks of the short questionnaires and the final exam of the subject. Academic integrity Students are expected to show adequate ethical behaviour, committing to act honestly. Based on article 42.1 of the Regulation on the evaluation, qualification and quality of teaching and the student learning process of the University of Vigo, as well as point 6 of the fifth rule of Order
DEF/711/2022, of July 18th, which establishes the requirements for
evaluation, progress, and ongoing enrolment in military educational
training centres for incorporation into the ranks of the Armed Forces, any
violation of academic integrity in the assessment process, as well as
the cooperation in it will result in the assignment of a failing grade
to the student (zero) for the entire course in the corresponding
assessment opportunity, regardless of the percentage of importance
that the test in question had in the overall continuous assessment and
independently of other disciplinary actions that may be applied. |
