Other comments on the Evaluation

Grading criteria and minimum requirements to pass the course through continuous assessment:

To ensure that the student has acquired the minimum skills in each aspect of the subject, students will be required to achieve a minimum grade of 4 out of 10 in the final theory exam, in order for the final grade in continuous assessment (NEC) to be calculated with the formulas below:

    MED_CON = 0,3 EP + 0,15 EL1 + 0,15 EL2 + 0,40 EF

  • Si EF ≥ 4: NEC = MED_CON
  • Si EF < 4: NEC = min(4, MED_CON).

where:

  • EP and EF: represent the theoretical component of the subject's continuous assessment examination. Written tests to assess the knowledge acquired during the theory sessions. It may take the form of a multiple choice quiz, a short answer quiz, a problem solving exercise, or a combination of these.

  • EL1 and EL2: are the practical components of the continuous assessment exams of the subject. Written tests are administered to evaluate the knowledge gained during the practical sessions. It may take the form of a multiple choice quiz, a short answer quiz, a problem solving exercise, or a combination of these.

It is necessary that this grade (NEC) be equal to or greater than 5 points (on a scale from 1 to 10) in order to pass the subject. Students who do not pass the subject in this call must take the ordinary examination.

Grading criteria and minimum requirements to pass the course through ordinary examination:

The final note (NEO) is calculated as follows:

    NEO = 0,70 T + 0,30 L

where:

  • T: represent the theoretical component of the subject's continuous assessment examination. Written tests to assess the knowledge acquired during the theory sessions. It may take the form of a multiple choice quiz, a short answer quiz, a problem solving exercise, or a combination of these.
  • L: are the practical components of the continuous assessment exams of the subject. Written tests are administered to evaluate the knowledge gained during the practical sessions. It may take the form of a multiple choice quiz, a short answer quiz, a problem solving exercise, or a combination of these.

It is necessary that this grade (NEO) be equal to or greater than 5 points (on a scale from 1 to 10) in order to pass the subject. Students who do not pass the subject in this call must take the extraordinary examination.

Grading criteria and minimum requirements to pass the course through extraordinary examination:

The final note (NEE) is calculated as follows:

    NEE = 0,70 T + 0,30 L

where:

  • T: represent the theoretical component of the subject's continuous assessment examination. Written tests to assess the knowledge acquired during the theory sessions. It may take the form of a multiple choice quiz, a short answer quiz, a problem solving exercise, or a combination of these.
  • L: are the practical components of the continuous assessment exams of the subject. Written tests are administered to evaluate the knowledge gained during the practical sessions. It may take the form of a multiple choice quiz, a short answer quiz, a problem solving exercise, or a combination of these.

It is necessary that this grade (NEE) be equal to or greater than 5 points (on a scale from 1 to 10) in order to pass 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 18, 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.

In the academic activities and assignments of this course, the use of Generative Artificial Intelligence (GAI) tools is allowed, used in an ethical, critical and responsible manner. In case you have used GAI, you should critically evaluate any results it provides, carefully verify any citations or references generated, and declare the use of these tools. It is not necessary to disclosure the use of GAI in tasks that do not produce content (proofreading language - spelling or grammar - in a document, translating text, obtaining suggestions to reorganize content or modify the style of a document, or to adapt the format of bibliographic references). AI-generated content (text, images, etc.) must be disclosured and correctly referenced, providing, at least, the following elements: generated content, prompt used in the query, tool used, version, company authoring the software, date on which the query was made and the link to the tool's website. The detection of situations involving non-disclosure of GAI will be considered academic fraud and the measures described in the previous paragraph will be applied.
