  Description Qualification Training and Learning Results
Laboratory practical The assessment will be carried out through deliverables and a questionnaire (ECP). The questionnaire will be loaded in Moovi and it will assess the knowledge acquired in the lectures and in the laboratory related to the practices. On the other hand, the deliverables of each practice evaluate the quality of the experimental data collection, the understanding of the practice, synthesis capacity, logical reasoning, teamwork and the search for appropriate sources of information that help to understand the problem under study and to contrast the results obtained. The mark of each deliverable and the questionnaire will be out of 10 points. The global grade of practices will be the average of the mark of all the deliverables and the questionnaire. 20 B4

Problem and/or exercise solving During the semester different tasks (TE) will be proposed, some will be individual and others may be in group. The objective of these tasks will be to promote the understanding of the theoretical/practical contents and to delve into other key aspects of the subject, such as the management and application of regulations such as the Technical Building Code in matters of energy saving. These activities will be compulsory and scored, each one of them, out of 10 points. 10 B4

Essay questions exam Ordinary and Extraordinary Exam

If the students do not pass the continuous evaluation, they will have an ordinary exam after the final exam. In this exam the students will be evaluated of all the contents taught in the lectures, seminars and practical sessions. This exam will represent 100% of the final grade of the student. It will be necessary to obtain a grade higher than 5 points out of 10 to pass the exam.

If the students do not pass the ordinary exam, they would go directly to the second call in July. In the extraordinary exam the student will be examined of all the theoretical/practical contents taught in the subject during the ordinary course.

Other comments on the Evaluation
The student must be examined of all the subject contents in the ordinary exam, if the final grade of continuous assessment is less than 5 and also in the following cases: 
  • The no realisation or delivery of any of the activities.
  • Obtain a grade to inferior 4.0 points over 10 in the final exam

In the case that they do not fulfill those conditions, the maximum qualification of the student by continuous evaluation will be 4.0. In any case, the student that has passed the continuous evaluation, will have the possibility to attend to the ordinary exam to improve his/her grade.


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.
