Other comments on the Evaluation
Students can, at ordinary exam, decide to be assessed according to a continuous assessment model or by global assessment. During the first week of the course, students must notify the subject coordinator about their choice. In case of choosing continuous assessment, a period of 1 month is offered to be able to renounce it. Once the students choose the continuous assessment model, their grade can never be "Not Submitted". For extraordinary exam the students will be evaluated using the modality of "global assessment" (some modifications over the original practices can be required). The scores obtained in ordinary exame are not preserved for extraordinary exam.

Plagiarism and copying are not allowed. In the event of detection of plagiarism or copying in any of the tests, the final grade will be FAIL (0) and the fact will be communicated to the Center's management for appropriate purposes.

  • Exam 1:
    • Dates: Approved in the Comisión Académica de Grado (CAG), they will be available at the beginning of the academic semester.
    • Individually
    • Contents: Theoretical content given until this moment
    • Type: Series of short answer questions and/or test type ones
    • Maximum score = 2 points
  • Exam 2:
    • Dates: Official calendar (coinciding with the global assessment for those that opted by this modality)

    • In group:
      • Reports / memories of practice and Laboratory practice: A personalized score is asigned to each member of the group according to the following:
      • 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)
          • Peers assessment: Within each group. Each student asseses his/her partners about the work they did (0-10). Then, an arithmetic average is calculated for each student.
