Other comments on the Evaluation

Following
the guidelines of the studies, two systems of evaluation will be
offered to the students enrolled in this subject: either continuous
evaluation or evaluation at the end of the semester. Criteria for both
are detailed below.

1. CONTINUOUS EVALUATION.

  • The student that receive it this system of evaluation will be able to achieve a maximum grade of 4 points.
  • The students must complete three evauable tasks. The preliminary schedule and the weight of each task in the final grade are::
    1. Task 1. Week 5. Topic 1. Weight 10%. EC1.
    2. Task 2. Week 8. Topics 2 and 3. Weight 15%. EC2.
    3. Task 3. Week 12. Topics 4 and 5. Weight 15%. EC3.
  • The date and review procedure of the obtained marks will be officially communicated before the completion or delivery of eac task. Students will have the opportunity to be informed about the status of each task and review their evaluation within a reasonable period of time.
  • The task are not recoverable. If a student cannot fulfilled them in the stipulated term, the professor is not bound to repeat them.
  • The qualification for students who opt for continuous evaluation (EC) will be calculate as the sum of the obtained marks in the three tasks: EC=EC1+EC2+EC3.
  • The obtained qualification (EC) will be valid only for the current academic course.
  • It will be considerer that a student follows this continuous evaluation system when after completing the first task the student carries out the second task.

2. FINAL EVALUATION AT THE END OF SEMESTER.

  • This procedure will consist in a final examination that includes the contents developed in the classes of theory and practice.
  • This exam will be mandatory for all students. There are three cases:
    1. For students that do not opt by the continuous evaluation points reached in it (among 0 and 10) will be the final grade.
    2. Students doing the continuous evaluation: they are graded with the points obtained in the evaluation follow the next:
      •  If EC >= 1.6: the final exam value (EF) is 10-EC. The overall mark will be:
NF = EC + EX*(10-EC)/10
      • If EC < 1.6: the final examen value (EF) is 6.The overall mark will be:
NF = EC + EX*6/10
  • The proposed assessment system  ensures that all students who propoerly complete the continuous evaluation system (minimum average of 4 points over 10, or equivalently 1,6 over 4) can also achieve a final mark of 10 points, as the students who have not opt for continuous evaluation system.


3. RETAKE IN THE JULY SESSION.

  • It will consists on a final examination as the aforementioned.
  • Prior to the exam, the students express his or her choice to receive the qualification by continuous evaluation (EC) system or only by the final exam.

ADITIONAL COMMENTS:

  • It will be considered as presented every student that receives any of the two final exams or two of the exercicies of continuous evaluation.
  • If a student has participated in the continuous evaluation and does not pass the course he/she will receive a grade of fail, regardless of he/she takes the final exam or not.
  • The subject is considered passed if the final grade obtained is equal or greater than %5.
