The above assessment is valid for students who follow continuous assessment. The conditions to be evaluated by continuous assessment are:

• For students in face-to-face mode: they must attend a minimum of 75% of the classroom hours.
• For online students: they must use the e-learning platform sufficiently assiduously (typically at least every 2 days) to be aware of the progress of the subject, as well as the appropriate and regular participation in online activities.

Those who do not meet these requirements will be considered not to follow the continuous assessment modality. Therefore they will be assessed by final exam (see below).

Alternatively, a student who, despite complying with these conditions, does not want to be evaluated by continuous assessment may explicitly renounce in writing to the professor, before the 3rd week of teaching. Or, if during the course, he / she will documentary and sufficiently proof of an incidental cause that objectively prevents him from following the continuous assessment. Otherwise, any student who fulfills the described conditions will be assessed by continuous assessment.

In general, for the face-to-face or virtual students, evaluated by continuous assessment, who have fulfilled all the indicated requirements to eventually pass the subject by this way, the final grade N of the student will be obtained as:

N = 0.9 * A + 0.1 * B

Being:

• A the result of the weighted average (depending on the estimated workload) of the grades obtained in each activity or evaluable item of the sections of case studies and problem solving and / or exercises.
• And B the note obtained in the section of Short answer tests

Both A and B will score between 0 and 10.

It shall be understood that the student passed if the final mark N is greater than or equal to 5 over 10.

It is also an essential requirement to be able to pass by continuous assessment to perform and deliver, within the deadlines set for each modality, all activities or items evaluable in part A and obtain a score equal to or greater than 4 out of 10 in each and every one of them (generally each module of the subject will consist of one or more evaluable items). Otherwise the subject will be automatically considered as not passed. There may be compulsory delivery activities but that will only be assessed as pass/ not pass, in which case it will be required to be delivered and evaluated as pass, but will not be considered for the calculation of the above-mentioned average A.

For students who follow the continuous assessment but who have not met some of the essential requirements described above to pass the subject in its corresponding modality (delivery of all activities or items evaluable within the deadlines, obtaining the minimum grade in all activities or evaluable items, having a final grade> = 5), the final grade N can never exceed 4.9 out of 10. Therefore, it will be calculated as:

N=minimum(0,9*A+0,1*B  ; 4,9)

That is, as indicated in the formula, the final grade N will be the minimum of the values ​​of (0.9 * A + 0.1 * B) and 4.9.

Students who do not follow the continuous assessment modality, as well as those who submit to the July exams or other extraordinary calls that may be established, will have to choose between two options to pass the subject: 

1- Take the face-to-face examination that will be held in the School on the date established for official calls for the subject, and obtain a grade greater than or equal to 5 out of 10. This test may consist of short questions , of development, problems, or practical exercises on any subject of the subject.

2-Make and deliver, before the date of the exam, all the activities or evaluable items of the sections of Case Studies and Resolution of problems and / or exercises that will be proposed in the subject. And take the face-to-face examination indicated in point 1 above. In this case, the final grade will be: 

N=0,65*A + 0,35 *B 

being "A" the grade obtained in the activities of the sections on Case Studies and Problem Solving; and "B" the grade obtained in the final face-to-face examination.
 

In any case, the student must inform the teacher which of the two options (1 or 2) he / she chooses to be evaluated in case of not following the continuous assesment.
