Following the guidelines of the studies, two evaluation systems will be offered to the students inscribed on this subject: continuous assessment (the preferred method, academic activities are linked to this system) and global assessment (not recommended).
* "Students who choose continuous assessment" conditions:
A student follows the continuous assessment system if she/he assigns a document that will be delivered and collected after week 4.
If a student has participated in continuous assessment and does not pass the course he/she will receive a grade of fail.
BONUS SYSTEM (used or not depending on the number of students)
* Group: a weekly score of the groups is publicly published. * Individual: a monthly score of the students is privately published.
Up to a maximum of 1.5 points may be added to the final group mark. In no case, this bonus is negative. Details will be given at the beginning of the course.
CONDITIONS TO PASS THE SUBJECT
Once bonus points are added, in order to ensure that students acquire a balanced minimum on the subject competences, they will pass the course if they meet these three conditions:
1) get a final mark equal to or greater than 5 (on a ten-points scale)
2) a score equal to or greater than 4 (on the same scale) in the written exam mark,
3) and a score equal to or greater than 5 (on the same scale), in the collaborative group mark.
If some of these conditions are not fulfilled, then the final grade (on a ten-points scale) will be the minimum between the final mark and the value 4,9.
Time planning of intermediate evaluation exams will be approved by the Comisión Académica de Grado (CAG) and will be available at the beginning of the semester.
* "Students who choose for global assessment" conditions:
The possibility of a final examination will be provided to students who do not opt for the continuous assessment.
In order to ensure that students acquire a balanced minimum on the subject competences, they will pass the course if they meet both these two conditions:
1) get a final mark equal to or greater than 5 (on a ten-points scale)
2) and a score equal to or greater than 4 (on the same scale) in each of the sections of the exam. These sections, respectively, correspond with:
* contents included in all activities * project developed in group, including group internals, management, writing of technical reports and oral presentations.
If some of these conditions are not fulfilled, then the final grade (on a ten-points scale) will be the minimum between the final mark and the value 4,9.
--- EXTRAORDINARY EXAM
Two different situations:
=> Students that are evaluated using continuous assessment:
Two options to choose (just before the exam begins):
* repeat the written exam included in the continuous assessment planning an be evaluated under the "Students who choose continuous assessment" conditions, described above.
* be evaluated with the same final exam of students who choose for global assessment, under the "Students who choose for global assessment" evaluation conditions, described above. No other activities are considered.
=> Students who choose for global assessment:
A final examination will be provided to students who do not opt for the continuous assessment, and are evaluated under the "Students who choose for exam-only assessment" conditions, described above. No other activities are considered.
In case of detection of plagiarism in any of the exams or assignments, the final grade will be SUSPENSE (0) and the fact will be communicated to the management of the Center for the corresponding effects. |
