  Description Qualification Training and Learning Results
Laboratory practical During the laboratory practices, the teacher will evaluate both the correct application as well as the skills in the instrumental techniques developed by each student in each session. This will amount to 5% of the overall score.
In addition, the student must solve, through the MOOVI platform, a questionnaire related to the concepts and techniques developed in each session. In total there will be 5 questionnaires (one for each training session), the average grade of which will contribute to 10% of the overall grade.
15
Seminars The teacher will propose questions or short problems (deliverables) through the MOOVI platform to be resolved throughout the four-month period (10% of the overall mark). Active participation in the seminars will contribute to 5% of the overall grade. 15 A1

Problem and/or exercise solving Exam 1: There will be an exam of topics 1 and 2 during the four-month period. The exam is divided into two parts:
- Multiple choice questions, which will evaluate the
theoretical knowledge acquired by the student of both topics.
- Problem solving part related to the subject matter of both topics.

Other comments on the Evaluation

CONTINUOUS EVALUATION:

IN ORDER TO PASS THE SUBJECT, THE STUDENT MUST OBTAIN AN OVERALL GRADE EQUAL TO OR GREATER THAN 5. 

1) The continuous evaluation supposes an overall grade ofthe subject resulting from weighting the grade of each of the activities as indicated above (laboratory practices, seminar, problem solving and/or exercises: exams 1 and 2). Attendance at a practice session or a seminar test implies that the student is being evaluated, so their grade in the minutes cannot be "not presented". 

2) The average with the grade of laboratory practices and seminar (in the indicated percentage) will only be made if the average grade of exams 1 and 2 is equal to or greater than 3.5 points. A grade lower than 3.5 supposes suspending the subject and will be the grade that appears in the minutes. 

3) Attendance at laboratory practices is mandatory, so non-attendance means suspending the subject. In the case of obtaining a grade lower than 5 in the practices, the grade can be recovered in the second opportunity exam (July). The grade of practices passed in previous courses will be saved. 

4) 2nd CHANCE: The grades of the activities passed in the first opportunity will be saved for the second opportunity. For this second opportunity, the same requirements described in point 2 are established, being, in this case, the exam grade that limits the average with the rest of the activities. In addition, this call will have a specific test for the recovery of the practice grade if necessary. 

GLOBAL ASSESSMENT: 

The students who renounce the continuous evaluation may request global evaluation in the period established by the center. This evaluation will be carried out on the official dates of the first and second opportunity. 

IN ORDER TO PASS THE SUBJECT, THE STUDENT MUST OBTAIN AN OVERALL GRADE EQUAL TO OR GREATER THAN 5. 

5) The average will only be made with the grade ofl aboratory practices when the grade of the exam is equal to or greater than 4.25 points (calculated taking into account the overall grade of 85% for the exam and 15% for the grade of practices). A grade lower than 4.25 supposes suspending the subject and will be the grade that appears in the minutes. 

6) Attending the laboratory practices is mandatory, so non-attendance will mean the suspension of the subject. In the case of obtaining a grade lower than 5 in the practices, the grade can be recovered in the official exam. The grade of practices passed in previous courses will be saved. 

7) 2nd CHANCE: For this second chance, the same requirements described in point 5 are established. 

The dates of the exams will be published on the website of the faculty (http://bioloxia.uvigo.es/es/docencia/examenes).
