Plagiarism is regarded as serious dishonest behavior. If any form of plagiarism is detected in any of the tests or exams, the final grade will be FAIL (0), and the incident will be reported to the corresponding academic authorities for prosecution Within a maximum period of one month from the start of the course, the student must choose the method of evaluation for the ordinary opportunity: global assessment or continuous assessment. In case of having chosen continuous assessment, the grade cannot be 'not presented'. However, students can switch to global assessment one week before the final test. The extraordinary opportunity will always be assessed by global assessment, although, optionally, part of the continuous assessment grades can be taken into account. Language of instruction: English. All course documentation will be done in English, as well as the presentations. The assessment of reports and practices will also be conducted in English. The last exam can be answered in English, Galician, or Spanish. 1.- Ordinary opportunity Global assessment: The exam will include questions, problems, and practices related to the contents that are explained both in the master sessions, seminars, and supervised works. It will be necessary to get a 5 out of 10 to pass the exam. Continuous assessment: The subject will be evaluated throughout the course: • Practice seminars: students will carry out 3 practices. Their evaluation will have a weight of 35% in the final grade. • Tutored works: 3 works will be proposed throughout the course and the evaluation will be carried out through the correction of the corresponding reports, as well as their oral presentation. Each work will have a weight of 15% in the final grade. • Short answer final test: this exam will be the final test of the continuous assessment and will have a weight of 20% of the final grade. 2.- Extraordinary opportunity: The students will carry out a global assessment that will include topics and/or problems related to the content taught both in master sessions, seminars, and in supervised works (100% of the final grade). Students who chose continuous assessment for the first opportunity can optionally take this unique assessment for 65% of the final grade. 3.- End-of-program call: The students will carry out a global assessment that will include topics and/or problems related to the content taught both in master sessions, seminars, and in supervised works (100% of the final grade). Students who chose continuous assessment for the first opportunity can optionally take this unique assessment for 65% of the final grade. The practical tasks carried out in the course are not recoverable and are only valid for the current course. |
