Other comments on the Evaluation

1. Ordinary exam (continuous assessment)

A system of continuous assessment will be offered to the students following the guidelines of the bachelor and the agreements of the academic commission. Students who take some of the tests of problem and/or exercise solving or laboratory practice deem to opt for continuous assessment. Those students who take any of those tests deem to renounce to the continuous assessment and they will have the possibility to take the global assessment. Students who have opted for continuous assesment and have not passed the subject can take to the global assesment. Students who do not follow the continuous assessment and do not take the global assessment will be considered "not presented".

1.a Self-assessment tests

The professors will evaluate the execution of the proposed self-assessment tasks, getting the student a rating from 0 to 10 (AE).

The final mark of self-assessment tests (NAE) will be:

NAE = 0.05*AE

1.b Theory

Students will carry out 3 exams (multiple choice test and/or short answer test and/or resolution of problems and/or exercises) properly programmed along the course (PT1, PT2 and PT3). The schedule of these exams will be approved in "CAG" (Degree Academic Commission) and will be made public at te beginning of the corresponding term. PT1 will be about themes 1 and 2 (block 1), PT2 about themes 3, 4 and 5 (block 2) and PT3 about themes 6, 7 and 8 (block 3). These exams will be valued from 0 up to 10 and the final mark will be the average (NPT -> Mark of theory exams):

NPT = (NPT1 + NPT2 + NPT3)/3

It is necessary to obtain a minimum of 3 points out of 10 in each of these exams (NPT1 >= 3, NPT2 >= 3 and NPT3 >= 3) to pass the subject.

The final mark of theory (NT) will be:

NT = 0.6*NPT

The exams are not recoverable, that is to say, if a student cannot assist the day they are scheduled, the professors do not have obligation to repeat them. The mark of the missed exams will be 0.

1.c Practical

Attendance to practical sessions is not compulsory.

Students will carry out 2 practical tests properly programmed along the course. The schedule of these tests will be approved in "CAG" (Degree Academic Commission) and will be made public at te beginning of the corresponding term. These tests will be valued from 0 up to 10 and the final mark of the practical (NP) will be:

NP = 0.35*[(NP1 + NP2)/2]

The practical tests are not recoverable, that is to say, if a student cannot assist the day they are scheduled, the professors do not have obligation to repeat them. The mark of the missed tests will be 0.

1.d Final mark of the subject

It must get a minimum of 4 points out of 10 in theory (NT >= 2.4) and practices (NP >= 1.4) to pass the subject. Also it is necessary to get a minimum of 3 points out of 10 in each of the 3 theory exams (NPT1 >= 3, NPT2 >= 3 and NPT3 >= 3).

The final mark (NF) will be:

If NT >= 2.4 and NP >= 1.4 and NPT1 >= 3 and NPT2 >= 3 and NPT3 >= 3 => NF = NAE + NT + NP

If NT < 2.4 or NP < 1.4 or NPT1 < 3 or NPT2 < 3 or NPT3 < 3 => NF = min {4.5; NAE + NT + NP}

2. Ordinary exam (global assessment)

The students who do not follow the continuous assessment or had a final mark lower than 5 (failed) in the continuous assessment, will be able to present to a final exam.

The final exam will have a theoretical part and a practical one. The theoretical part will be carried out in the dates established by the School and it will consist in an exam (multiple choice test and/or short answer test and/or resolution of problems and/or exercises). This exam will have 3 parts, one for each block specified in section 1.b. Each part will be evaluated from 0 up to 10 and the final mark of theory (NT) will be the average multiplied by 0.6. It is necessary to get a minimum of 3 points in each of these parts (NPT1 >= 3, NPT2 >= 3 and NPT3 >= 3) and a minimum of 4 points out of 10 in theory (NT >= 2.4) to pass the subject.

The practical exam will be carried out in the laboratory in the dates established by the School and it will consist in a practical test which will be evaluated from 0 up to 10 and the final mark of practices (NP) will be the points of the test multiplied by 0.4. It must get a minimum of 4 points out of 10 in the practical exam (NP >= 1.6) to pass the subject.

By reasons of organisation of the groups of examination, the professors will open a period so that the students could enroll for the final exam. Only those students who have inscribed in due time and form, according to the rules indicated by the professors in the corresponding announcement, will be able to take the final exam.

The students who have opted for the continuous assessment and have failed and present to the final exam, can only do the theoretical part or to the practical one or both. They will keep the mark got in the continuous assessment of the missed part if the minimums specified in the continuous assessment process were achieved. The students who take the theoretical part will be able to carry out the blocks they want. The mark of the continous assessment of the missed blocks (NPT1, NPT2 and NPT3) will be kept. If they do not take the practical part, the practice note (NP) of the continuous assessment is recalculated multiplying by 0.4 instead of by 0.35.

The final mark (NF) will be:

If NT >= 2.4 and NP >= 1.6 and NPT1 >= 3 and NPT2 >= 3 and NPT3 >= 3 => NF = NT + NP

If NT < 2.4 or NP < 1.6 or NPT1< 3 or NPT2 < 3 or NPT3 < 3 => NF = min {4.5; NT + NP}

3. Extraordinary exam

It will have a theoretical part and practical one with the same format as the global assessment.

The students who take this call can only do the theoretical part, the practical one or both. They will keep the mark got in the ordinary exam (continuous or global assessment). The students who take the theoretical part will be able to carry out the blocks they want. The mark of the ordinary exam (continuous or global assessment) of the missed blocks will be kept. The calculation of the final mark of the subject will be as described in section 2.

The final mark of the subject will be the best of the ordinary and extraordinary exam.

By reasons of organisation of the groups of examination, the professors will open a period so that the students could enroll for the extraordinary exam. Only those students who have inscribed in due time and form , according to the rules indicated by the professors in the corresponding announcement, will be able to take this exam.

4. End-of-program exam

This exam will be the same as the extraordinary examl.

5. Validity of the marks

The marks of the student in the theoretical and practical parts of the subject will be valid only for the academic course in which they was got.

If a cheating case is detected, the final mark will be FAIL (0) and the case will be communicated to the School Management.
