Assessment

	Description	Qualification	Training and Learning Results
Problem solving	This matter is mainly practical, so the best way to evaluate the student's knowledge is by means of problem solving. Thus, throughout the four-month period, students will be assessed on the basis of exercise resolution deliverables	10		B3 B4	C19	D2
Laboratory practical	Students will carry out different laboratory practicals and field trips. At the end of the various practicals and on the dates indicated by the teachers, they will have to hand in the practical reports and complete a questionnaire on the field trips.	10		B3 B4
Presentation	Students must present a CASE STUDY which will be assessed by an examining board made up of the lecturers of the subject.	10		B3 B4		D1
Case studies	Students will carry out a CASE STUDY as a group. Report will be worth 10% of the final grade.	10		B4		D1 D5
Essay questions exam	This subject is mainly practical, so in the final exam the student's knowledge will be assessed by solving problems.	30		B3 B4	C19	D2
Objective questions exam	In the final exam the student will have to answer a series of short questions or multiple-choice questions in which they will have to demonstrate their knowledge as well as their capacity for synthesis. In addition, during the four-month period, multiple-choice exams may be held, which may account for up to 1/4 of the grade assigned to this section.	20		B3		D1
Oral exam	There will be an individual oral examination of the laboratory practicals carried out in the course.	10		B3 B4		D1

Other comments on the Evaluation
CONTINUOUS ASSESSMENT All students will be assessed on a continuous basis through the development of the CASE STUDY, practicals, multiplechoice questionnaires and problem solving. Problem solving (10%): during the course, students will carry out different problem solving tasks, as well as multiple-choicetests. CASE STUDY (20%): throughout the four-month period, students will have to carry out a group work in which they will use the different knowledge they are acquiring in the subject. The lecturer will plan seminars to monitor the work in which the progress of the work will be assessed. The partial evaluations of deliverables on the work carried out during the course as well as the evaluation of the final presentation of the work (report and presentation) constitute 20% of the mark for the subject, with 10% corresponding to the report and follow-up and 10% to the presentation. Laboratory practicals and field trips (20%): During the four-month period, students will carry out laboratory practicals and field trips, which will account for 20% of the final mark for the course. The total mark for the practicals and field trips will be divided in the following way: 10% individual oral examination of the practicals and 10% the practical report and the test on field trips. A minimum attendance of 90% of the practices and field trips of the subject is required to be entitled to the evaluation of the same. Otherwise, the mark for this section will be 0.0 and the student will have to take a test in the final exam. Similarly, a minimum of 40% of the mark for the practicals must be achieved. If a minimum mark is not achieved in the practicals, an exam on the practicals must be taken during the final exam. Multiple-choice questionnaires: throughout the term, multiple-choice questionnaires may be taken, which may be worth up to 1/4 of the mark assigned to the exam of objective questions. FINAL MARK The final mark will be the sum of the marks obtained in each section as long as a minimum mark is achieved in the sum of eassy questions exam and objective questions exam (50% of the maximum mark). If the minimum mark is not reached in the exam, this will be the mark that will appear in the final mark. SECOND CALL In the second call, the mark obtained in the practicals in the first call will be maintained (if 40% of the maximum mark is reached) and the mark obtained in the CASE STUDY and PROBLEM SOLVING will be maintained. Students who do not obtain 40% of the maximum mark in the practicals will have to take an exam in this second call. RESIGNATION OF CONTINUOUS ASSESSMENT If the student is granted permission to resign from continuous assessment, he/she will only be assessed by a final exam of the contents of the subject (theoretical and practical), which will be 100% of the mark. ETHICAL COMMITMENT Students are expected to behave ethically. If unethical behaviour is detected (copying, plagiarism, use of unauthorised electronic devices, for example) it will be considered that the student does not meet the requirements to pass the subject. In which case the overall mark for the academic year will be a fail (0.0). The use of any electronic device will not be permitted during the assessment tests unless expressly authorised. Bringing an unauthorised electronic device into the exam room will be considered grounds for failing the subject in the academic year and the overall mark will be a fail (0.0).
