Students can, at first call, decide to be assessed according to a continuous assessment model or by an exam-only assessment. The fact of presenting to the first continuous assessment exam involves opting for this assessment model (otherwise opting for the exam-only asessment model). Once the students choose the continuous assessment model, their grade can never be "Not Submitted". For second call the students will be evaluated using the modality of "exam-only assessment" (some modifications over the original practices can be required). The scores obtained in first call are not preserved for second call.

Plagiarism and copy are not allowed.

• Final score of practices = (Memory + Practice) * Weighting factor
• Memory maximum score = 0.5 points
• Practice maximum score = 3.5 points (verification of the correct operation of the practice and of possible changes to be made in it, in group or individually).
• Weighting factor = (Follow-up by the teacher + Peers assessment) / 20
• Follow-up by the teacher: About the work carried out by each student observed by the teacher (0-10)
