Assessment

	Description	Qualification	Training and Learning Results
Lecturing	Written exam of short answer questions to analyze the understanding of the theoretical-practical content seen during the course. Learning outcomes: Knowledge integration of the different disciplines that converge in this matter. Understanding of the basic technology and safety aspects in the subterranean work Knowledge of the documents that have to integrate the project of an underground work and its contents. Knowledge and application of the theoretical-experimental processes used in the characterisation of the terrain, in the design of the work and in the selection of the execution methods. Knowledge and application of techniques to estimate the performances of the execution methods of tunnels. The application of design principles of blastings. Knowledge of the fundamental principles of safety during the construction of a underground work.	35		B1 B2 B3 B4 B7 B8	C24 C25	D1 D3 D7 D9
Problem solving	Written tests consisting of the solving of problems covering the concepts studied during the course. Engineers should know how to solve real problems, so the resolution of these exercises is the most valued part of the assessment. Learning outcomes: Knowledge integration of the different disciplines that converge in this matter. Knowledge and application of the theoretical-experimental processes used in the characterisation of the terrain, in the design of the work and in the selection of the execution methods. Knowledge and application of techniques to estimate the performances of the execution methods of tunnels.	35		B1 B2 B3 B4 B6 B7 B8	C24 C25	D1 D2 D3 D7 D9
Laboratory practical	Evaluation through the report- practices and exposure in class real cases. Learning outcomes: Knowledge integration of the different disciplines that converge in this matter. Knowledge and application of the theoretical-experimental processes used in the characterisation of the terrain, in the design of the work and in the selection of the execution methods. Knowledge and application of techniques to estimate the performances of the execution methods of tunnels. Knowledge of the fundamental principles of safety during the construction of a underground work.	10		B1 B2 B3 B4 B6 B7 B8	C24 C25	D1 D2 D3 D5 D7
Mentored work	Formulation and oral presentation, by groups, of a topic related to the subject. Analysis and discussion. Learning outcomes: Knowledge integration of the different disciplines that converge in this matter. Understanding of the basic technology and safety aspects in the subterranean work Knowledge of the documents that have to integrate the project of an underground work and its contents.

Other comments on the Evaluation
Once the semester has started, the student will have one month to notify about his/her decision to renounce the continuous assessment system and use the overall assessment to the coordinator of the subject. Continuous evaluation, first opportunity: Before the official date of the exam in the first opportunity, the qualification of each student will result from the sum of the First Partial (35%) + Second Partial (35%) + Oral Presentation (20%) + Practice Report (10%). Each partial will have two parts: one of theory and another of problems. In each part the student must obtain a minimum grade of 3.5/10 both in theory and in problems. If the minimums are not obtained, the qualification for that partial will correspond to the minimum grade obtained. The student who does not obtain more than 4/10 in the partials must take the part corresponding to said partial in the official exam. It is important to emphasize that the practices are not mandatory, but the student may present the report in any way, and it will be evaluated. If the student does not pass any of the partial exams (with a minimum grade of 4/10), he/she must take its corresponding part of the final exam on the official date of the first opportunity. In this case, the exam will have a weight in the final grade of 35% (if a partial was failed) or 70% (if neither of the two partials were failed). As previously indicated, in the final exam, in theory and in the problems of the parts equivalent to each part, the student must obtain a minimum grade of 3.5/10. If the minimums are not obtained, the qualification for that part equivalent to a partial will be the minimum grade obtained in theory or problems. The rest of the activities continue to have the same weight as those indicated above: Oral presentation (20%) + Practice report (10%). This sum will be done if the average of the two partials or of the equivalent parts in the official exam is greater than 4/10. Continuous evaluation, second chance: The student will have the possibility to do an exam with a weight of 100% of the final grade for the subject. In this case, the student must obtain at least a 4/10 in both theory and problems. If the minimums are not obtained, the grade corresponds to the minimum grade obtained. The exam will be approved with a mark of 5/10. General evaluation: Students who choose not to participate in the continuous assessment system may take the final exam for the subject on the official dates, with this exam weighing 100% of the final grade. In each of them the student must obtain a minimum grade of 4/10 both in theory and in problems. If the minimums are not obtained, the final grade of the exam corresponds to the minimum grade obtained. The exam will be approved with a mark of 5/10. Exam calendar.
