First edition of records (actas) in December/January

- The assessment process will be continuous and based on the above-mentioned four parameters and their corresponding
percentages of the final grade.

- To pass the course it is compulsory to attend all sessions and to get at
least 5/10 on each of the tasks to be submitted. Exceptionally, a mark slightly below
5/10 will be admitted on one of the submitted tasks (excepting the paper and its oral presentation) if
the rest of the marks are high enough to compensate it.

- Not only does the relevance and quality of the content of answers count for assessment but also linguistic correctness.

- Any instance of total or partial plagiarism in any activity or paper will derive in failing the course. Claiming ignorance
of plagiarism will not exempt the student from liability.

Assessment for students with exemption from attendance

This paper will count as the entire final mark (50% written paper and 50% its oral presentation).

- Not only does the relevance and quality of the content of the paper count for assessment but also linguistic correctness.

ignorance of plagiarism will not exempt the student from liability.

Warning to all students

Turnitin is a tool for staff to use in order to check sections
of written work originating in other texts and locating the sources. It
is a useful way of detecting plagiarism. Its use is optional, but students
are warned that it is able to detect pieces of work

previously
presented in this or any other university, including work by the same student. An instance of plagiarism will be understood as academic fraud and will be sanctioned applying the present regulations concerning assessment.
