(This is a translation, in case of any discrepancy or dispute, the original Spanish version shall prevail.)

The common assessment and grading rules of the University of Vigo are established in:

[RAUV] "Regulamento sobre a avaliación, a cualificación e a calidade da docencia e do proceso de aprendizaxe do estudantado" (available only in Galician language at https://secretaria.uvigo.gal/uv/web/normativa/public/show/565).

Each student summoned to an assessment test must appear with an original official document proving their identity (DNI, NIE, passport, university card or Spanish driving licence). [RAUV Art.28.4].

In the event that a fraudulent action is detected in the performance or revision of any of the assessment tests (copying, plagiarism, impersonation, introduction or use of means not permitted by the rules and instructions of the exercises and assessment tests, alteration, subtraction or destruction of the same, etc.) [RAUV Art.42]:

- The person(s) involved shall be identified and immediately expelled from the assessment test.

- A final grade of zero points (fail) will be assigned to the person(s) involved.

- A report will be submitted to the school management for disciplinary action to be taken.

1. ORDINARY ASSESSMENT OPPORTUNITY

1.1. INTERMEDIATE CONTINUOUS ASSESSMENT TESTS

The schedule of the intermediate assessment tests will be made available by the beginning of the semester in which this subject is taught. These intermediate tests are not recoverable, i.e., they can be only taken in the scheduled dates.

The assessment tests that the student has not taken will be graded with 0 (zero points).

The corrected exercises may be revised, by requesting a tutoring session from the corresponding lecturer, during the fourteen days following the date of publication of the marks.

There will be four intermediate tests:

1.1.1 CONTINUOUS ASSESSMENT EXAMS (EC1 and EC2)

Written exams with questions, exercises and problems (marks EC1 and EC2 between 0 and 2,5 points for each exam). Duration: nominally 1 hour in one lecture on theory or problems.

1.1.2 EVALUATED LABORATORY PRACTICES (LC1 and LC2)

Experimental laboratory exercises comprising the execution of actual measurements and the processing of the results, consisting in taking an experimental laboratory class, individually processing (during the last 30 minutes) the assessable results which will be specified in the corresponding experiments guide and handing them in at the end of the class (marks LC1 and LC2 between 0 and 1 point for each of the exercises).

1.2. FINAL EXAMINATION

Written exam with three optional parts:

E12F)

-Questions, exercises and problems corresponding to the contents of EC1 and EC2 (mark E12F between 0 and 4 points).

-If a student does not take this part, the E12F mark will be assigned the sum of the EC1 and EC2 marks.

E3F)

-Questions, exercises and problems (E3F mark between 0 and 4 points).

-If a student does not take this part, it will be graded with 0 (zero points).

LF)

-Laboratory problem comprising the execution of real or simulated measurements and the processing of the results (LF mark between 0 and 2 points).

-If a student does not take this part, the LF mark will be assigned the sum of the LC1 and LC2 marks.

Duration 4 hours on the place and date officially assigned for the subject in the examinations schedule of the Centre.

1.3. FINAL GRADING OF THE ORDINARY ASSESSMENT OPPORTUNITY

A student who does not take any of the three parts of the final examination (§1.2) will be regarded as "not presented" to the ordinary assessment opportunity.

A combined mark CCF will be calculated as the sum of the marks of the three parts of the final examination (§1.2).

The final grade FINAL_F will be the lower of 10 points and CCF.

CCF = E12F+E3F+LF

FINAL_F = min{CCF, 10}

2. EXTRAORDINARY ASSESSMENT OPPORTUNITY

2.1. RESIT EXAMINATION

Written exam with three optional parts:

E12R)

-Questions, exercises and problems corresponding to the contents of E12F (mark E12R between 0 and 4 points).

-If a student does not take this part, the E12R mark will be assigned the E12F mark.

E3R)

-Questions, exercises and problems (E3R mark between 0 and 4 points).

-If a student does not take this part, the E3R mark will be assigned the mark obtained in E3F.

LR)

-Laboratory problem comprising the execution of real or simulated measurements and the processing of the results (LR mark between 0 and 2 points).

-If a student does not take this part, the LR mark will be assigned the LF mark.

Duration 4 hours on the place and date officially assigned for the subject in the examinations schedule of the Centre.

2.2. FINAL GRADING OF THE EXTRAORDINARY ASSESSMENT OPPORTUNITY

A student who does not take any of the three parts of the resit examination (§2.1) will be regarded as "not presented" to the extraordinary assessment opportunity.

A combined mark CCR will be calculated as the sum of the marks of the three parts of the resit examination (§2.1).

The final grade FINAL_R will be the lower of 10 points and CCR.

CCR = E12R+E3R+LR

FINAL_R = min{CCR, 10}

3. END-OF-PROGRAM CALL

3.1. END-OF-PROGRAM EXAMINATION

Written exam with:

-Questions

-Exercises

-Problems

-Laboratory problems (with real or simulated measurements and processing of the results)

FINAL_E mark between 0 and 10 points.

Duration 3 hours on the place and date officially assigned for the subject in the examinations schedule of the Centre.

3.2. FINAL GRADING OF THE END-OF-PROGRAM CALL

The final grade FINAL_E will be the one obtained in the end-of-program examination (§3.1).

4. CALCULATIONS AND ROUNDING:

I) All of the aforesaid calculations to obtain the marks will be performed with a resolution equal to or better than one hundredth of a point (0,01 point).

II) The final marks will be rounded to the nearest multiple of 0,1 point (one tenth of a point); if the two nearest multiples of 0,1 point are equidistant, the overall grade will be rounded to the higher of them.

III) The minimum final grade required to pass the course is 5,0 points. [RAUV Art.31]
