Following the policy guidelines of the Center, the students can choose between two systems of evaluation: continuous evaluation and evaluation at the end of the term. In all the evaluation tests, the competences CG3, CE1 and CE3 will be evaluated.
1. CONTINUOUS EVALUATION.
- The system of continuous evaluation (CE) will consist in a problems/questions solving test on units/topics 1, 2 and 3 of he syllabus. It will be takenaround the 8th week of the term. The weight of this test will be the 40% of the final grade, with a maximum score of 4 points.
- Before the completion or delivery of the test, the date and procedure for the review of the obtained grades will be indicated. Students will have the option to know the status of the test and review the correction within a reasonable period of time.
- This test is not recoverable, what means that if a student cannot fulfill it in the stipulated period and terms, teachers will not be committed to repeat it.
- The grade obtained in the continuous evaluation test (CE1) will be valid only for the current academic course.
- It will be understood that a student follows the CE system whenever he takes the test CE1.
2. END OF THE TERM EXAM
- The exam will be divided in two parts: EX1 (topics 1 to 3) with a maximum value of 4 points, and EX2 (topics 4 to 7) with a maximum value of 6 points.
- All the students must take this exam in order to pass the course on first call.
- Two cases must be considered:
- Students that did not follow the continuous evaluation:
- The grade will be straightforwardly obtained from the final exam (FE) as the sum of the grades of the two parts of the exam: FE = EX1 + EX2.
- Students that followed the continuous evaluation:
- They must take the second part of the exam (EX2). EX2 will be graded from 0 to 6 points and will be saved as the second part of the continuous evaluation (CE2) until the July exam (CE2 = EX2).
- The student may choose to do the first part of the exam (EX1); if so, it only will be taken into account when the grade obtained improves the result obtained in the continuous evaluation test (CE1).
- Thus, the final grace will be obtained as: FE = max (EX1, CE1) + EX2.
3. RECOVERY EXAM.
- The recovery exam will also be divided in two parts: EX1 (topics 1 to 3) with a maximum value of 4 points, and EX2 (topics 4 to 7) with a maximum value of 6 points.
- Regarding the students that did not follow the continuous evaluation, their final grade will be straightforwardly obtained from this final exam as the sum of the grades of the two parts of the exam: FE = EX1 + EX2.
- The students that followed the continuous evaluation will choose to do: only EX1, only EX2, or both parts. The final grade will be: FE = max(EX1, CE1) + max(EX2, CE2), being EX1 and EX2 the grades obtained in each part of the recovery exam, CE1 the continuous evaluation grade, and CE2 the continuous evaluation grade corresponding to the second part of the course (obtained in the second part of the end of term exam).
4. NOTES - It is considered that a student has taken the course when he has done the continuous evaluation test (CE1) or any of the two exams (end of term exam or recovery exam). Any student who takes the continuous evaluation test (CE1) will be graded, regardless of he/she takes or not the other two exams (end of term exam or recovery exam).
- In order to pass the course, students must receive a grade of 5 or above.
