Assessment

	Description	Qualification	Training and Learning Results
Problem solving	Class participation and resolution by the student of all the problems and/or exercises proposed in time/conditions established by the teaching staff will be evaluated.	25		C2 C10 C11 C12 C13 C19 C20	D1 D4 D7 D8 D9 D14
Laboratory practices	Assistance to practical classes is mandatory. Monitoring of laboratory work will be evaluated as APT/NO APT. The following aspects will be considered in this section: pre-lab questionnaires, development of the experimental work, laboratory notebook, final questions. In order to pass the subject it is indispensable to be evaluated as APT.	0		C21 C25 C26 C27 C28	D12 D13 D14 D15
Essay	The student will elaborate a report prior to the execution of a short project in the laboratory during the last week of practical classes.	15		C20 C23 C25	D1 D4 D5 D9 D14
Short answer tests	First test: 15%. It will cover contents corresponding to the first three lessons. Second test: 15%. It will cover contents corresponding to the last three lessons. Written test for the experimental part: 15%. To be taken by the students that have achieved the mention APT in the monitoring of the laboratory work. In this test, student acquisition of competencies and skills related to the experimental aspects of the subject will be evaluated. Global test: 15%. In this test, student acquisition of competencies and skills related to the theoretical aspects of the subject will be evaluated.	60		C2 C10 C11 C12 C13 C19	D3 D7 D12 D14

Other comments on the Evaluation
In order to pass the subject in January, it will be required: Achieve mention APT in the evaluation of the laboratory work. Achieve a minimum mark of 3 points out of 10 in each of the two short theoretical tests (first test and second test) and in the written test for the experimental part. Achieve a minimum mark of 4 points out of 10 in the global test. If any of the previous conditions is not fulfilled, the final mark for the subject will be the mark obtained for the Short answer tests section multiplied by 0.6 (60%). Achieve a minimum mark of 5.0 in the weighted addition of the marks for all the sections (troubleshooting, short answer tests, works). The final grade for the students who pass the subject could be standardized so that the highest mark can reach a value of up to 10 points. The participation of the student in any of the acts of evaluation for the subject will involve the condition of "presentado/a" and, therefore, the assignment of a mark. The acts of evaluation that will be considered are: assistance to laboratory practices (25% or more) or the delivery of reports/exercises (25% or more) or taking any examination. Students of 2nd and subsequent enrollment. Those students who passed the laboratory practices during the 2014-15 or 2015-16 courses or were evaluated as APT during the 2016-17 or 2017-18 courses will be awarded the APT mention for the monitoring of laboratory work in the academic course 2018-19, not being necessary the completion of the experimental work again. However, they must elaborate the report of the project (15%) and take the written test for the experimental part (15%) to achieve the mark for the experimental part of the subject in the academic course 2018-19. EVALUATION IN JULY 45% of the Short answer tests section can be repeated in July, in the following way: Tests (30%). It will be carried out a global test in which the competences acquired in the theoretical aspects of the subject will be evaluated. The student must achieve a minimum mark of 4 points out of 10 so that the result of this test will be taken into account in the global mark of the subject. This result will substitute the two lower marks obtained for the three theoretical tests carried out during the semester (first test, second test and global test), keeping the higher mark of the three, as long as it exceeds the required minimum. Written test for the experimental part (15%). A minimum mark of 3 points out of 10 must be achieved. The new mark will substitute the one achieved in the written test for the experimental part taken at the end of the semester. The final mark will be the weighted addition of the marks for all the sections (troubleshooting, short answer tests, works), as long as all the required minima are reached. If this is not the case, the final mark for the subject will be the mark obtained for the Short answer tests section multiplied by 0.6 (60%). In case that this mark was lower than the one obtained in the end of semester evaluation, the official mark will be this last one.
