Other comments on the Evaluation
It is necessary to obtain a minimal qualification of 5 in the final examination and in the questionnaires derived of the seminars to approve the subject. The questionnaires derived from the seminars can be repeated once, and the final qualification will be the average of the two instances. The cruise report, the questionnaires associated to the practices and the small questions presented in the theoretical lessons do not require a minimal qualification Qualifications obtained in the objective questions tests are kept during two academic courses (the current one and the next). Happened this term, the student will have to redo the objective questionnaires. Global assessment option: 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. Given the experimental nature of the practices, attendance at them is mandatory to be eligible for this evaluation option. Failure to attend the practices, with no justified cause invalidates this possibility, as well as the opportunity for extraordinary evaluation (2nd opportunity). The official exam dates can be obtained at: 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
