Other comments on the Evaluation
In order to pass the subject, each student must approve the evaluation of teaching (long answer test) and laboratory practices (attendance and practice report) separately (with a mark higher than 5). In the case of laboratory practices, which are mandatory, failure to attend these practices that is not duly justified will mean the elimination of the option to take the second chance test. Obviously, if the student has attended the practices, but has not passed them, they will have the right to recover them through a job and attend the second chance test if necessary. The application for this evaluation option must be submitted in the time and manner determined by the Center, which will be published prior to the academic start. In the case that the student takes the second chance evaluation (July test), the weekly test scores, laboratory practices and seminars will be saved for the estimation of the final calification in the case that the student exceeds (with note on 5) the exam. If the student passes the second chance exam, the grade will account for 40% of the final grade. The official calendar of the evaluation will be published in: http://mar.uvigo.es/alumnado/examenes/ Students are strongly requested to fulfil a honest and responsible behaviour. It is considered completely unacceptable any alteration or fraud (i.e., copy or plagiarism) contributing to modify the level of knowledge and abilities acquired in exams, evaluations, reports or any kind of teacher’s proposed work. Fraudulent behaviour may cause failing the course for a whole academic year. An internal dossier of these activities will be built and, when reoffending, the university rectorate will be asked to open a disciplinary record.
