Continuous Assessment:

To opt to continuous assessment, it is necessary to attend 80% of the practical lab sessions and make the corresponding deliveries, and also to make the partial deliveries requested for the group development project.

Each one of the deliveries will evaluated separately. The final practical mark will be the result of averaging the mark obtained in the last delivery of the development project (70%) and the arithmetical average of the previous deliveries (30%). All the marks associated to the work done in group will be shared by all of its members.

The final mark will be the obtained by averaging the practical mark (70%) and the mark obtained in the exam (30%).

The student who prefers one-step assessment must tell the professor before the date of the first partial delivery of the development project. In this case, his/her partial deliveries will not be taken into account for his/her mark, but they will for the marks of the other group members who opt to continuous assessment. The final mark will be calculated by averaging the mark obtained in the final delivery of the project (70%) and that of the final examination (30%).

In the second opportunity, the students have to deliver (individually) a set of modifications to the project developed during the course. In the case of the students of one-step assessment, this delivery will account for 70% of the final mark, and the remaining 30% will correspond to the final exam.

For the students who chose continuous assessment, the practical note will be the maximum between (i) the weighted average of the marks of new delivery (70%) and the marks of the partial deliveries (30%) and (ii) the mark corresponding only to the new delivery.
