CONTINUOUS ASSESSMENT SYSTEM The continuous assessment system consists of two parts: (i) the objective questions exam and (ii) the laboratory practical. (i). Objective questions examThis is an exam to be taken on the date scheduled in the school's calendar of final exams. It will consist of short questions or multiple-choice questions and will serve to assess the theoretical knowledge acquired by the student. Methodology(s) applied: Examination of objective questions.
Grading %: 40%.
Minimum %: In order to pass this part of the subject, the student must obtain a qualification equal to or higher than 5 points out of 10.
Competences assessed: C6.
Assessed outcomes: R1, R2, R5 and R6.
(ii). Laboratory practical
This consists of the delivery of all the laboratory practicals (at least 4) proposed throughout the course.
Methodology(s) applied: Laboratory practicals.
Qualification: 60% in total
Minimum %: To pass this part of the subject the student must obtain a grade equal to or higher than 5 points out of 10.
Competences assessed: A2, A5, B2, C7, C9 and D3.
Assessed outcomes: R3, R4, R5, R7 and R8. When a student submits any of the laboratory practical, we will understand he/she has taken part in the continuous assessment procedure described above. If a student does not submit any of the tests, he/she will be assigned a grade of 0 in it. OVERALL ASSESSMENT SYSTEM When a student does not submit any of the laboratory practicals, it is understood that he/she chooses the global assessment modality. In the same way as in the previous case, the global assessment system consists of two parts: (i) the objective questions exam and (ii) the laboratory practical. (i). Objective questions exam This is an examination to be taken on the date scheduled in the school's final examination timetable. It will consist of short questions or multiple-choice questions and will serve to assess the theoretical knowledge acquired by the student.
Methodology(ies) applied: Examination of objective questions.
Grading: 40%.
Minimum %: To pass this part of the subject, the student must obtain a grade equal to or higher than 5 points out of 10.
Competences assessed: C6.
Assessed outcomes: R1, R2, R5 and R6. (ii). Laboratory practicals It is assumed that the student does not attend regularly to the practical sessions and/or does not deliver the corresponding deliveries, so he/she will have to take an exam that consists of a laboratory practice provided by the teachers in which the student will have to apply the practical knowledge that was taught in the subject. It will be held after (and on the same day) the exam of objective questions. Methodology(ies) applied: Laboratory practicals.
Grading: 60% in total.
Maximum %: In order to pass this part of the subject the student must obtain a grade equal to or higher than 5 points out of 10.
Competences assessed: A2, A5, B2, C7, C9 and D3.
Assessed results: R3
ASSESSMENT CRITERIA FOR EXTRAORDINARY AND FINAL EXAMS The continuous and global assessment systems described above will be used. The scores of the parts passed in the ordinary exams will be retained. GRADING PROCESSRegardless of the assessment system and the call, if any part of the assessment is not passed, the overall mark will be that of the part not passed. ASSESSMENT DATESThe official exam dates for the different exam sessions, officially approved by the ESEI's Xunta de Centro, are published on the ESEI's website (https://esei.uvigo.es). USE OF MOBILE DEVICESAll students are reminded of the prohibition of the use of mobile devices during the assessment tests. In particular, article 13.2.d) of the University Student Statute, concerning the duties of university students, establishes the duty to abstain from "the use of or cooperation in fraudulent procedures in the assessment tests, in the work carried out or in official university documents".
