The table above shows
the characteristics of Attending students’ assessment, that is to say, students
that do not miss more than 3 Sessions B (in other words, students that attend
at least 80% of Sessions B), regardless if the absences are justified or not. This
means that students can miss a maximum of 3 Sessions B if they want to be
considered as Attending students. Out of these 3, each non-justified absence implies
-0.1 penalty points in section “Attendance and participation in Sessions B”. If
the absence is justified, it will not imply loosing points. Absence notes will
never be sent by e-mail: they will be shown to the coordinator of the subject
at any face-to-face sessions. Attendance and participation in Sessions A do not
affect the final qualification. Nevertheless, it is essential to attend these
sessions for getting the maximum advantage out of the subject, especially for
learning and understanding the contents, and for being able to keep up with the
pace of Sessions B without difficulties. Attending Sessions A will also benefit
the quality of students’ individual participation and contributions to Sessions
B which, along with the attitude, will be determining to evaluate the
aforementioned assessment section. EVALUATION FOR ATTENDING
STUDENTS: (1) Individual
theoretical test: 25% (2) Group practical performance:
10% (3) Group mentored
work: 25% (4) Service-learning
project: 25% (5) Attendance and
participation in Sessions B: 15% For those who choose
to be Non-Attending students, the percentages for calculating the final
qualification of the subject will be the following ones: EVALUATION FOR NON-ATTENDING
STUDENTS: (1) Individual
theoretical test: 25% (2) Group practical
performance: 10% (3) Group mentored
work: 40% (two parts: 20% each) (4) Service-learning
project: 25% It is necessary to
pass sections 1, 2, and 3 to pass the subject (it is to say, to get a 5 out of
10), both for Attendees and for Non-Attendees. If a student do not pass any of
these three sections in a call (first and/or second call), the qualification of
the subject will be the sum of the different assessment sections divided into
two. Those opting for being
Non-Attending students must communicate it to the teaching staff via e-mail in
the first month of the semester. With the list of Non-Attending students, the
teacher will form working teams, which will be published on the virtual
classroom of the subject (Moovi), along with the instructions for elaborating
academic tasks, so that each team can organize the work. Once published the
list of the working teams, students must stablish initial contacts trough
Moovi. Once you are into the virtual classroom of the subject, you should click
on the top right corner, on the speech bubble. Then, you should type the name
of the person to whom you wish to write a message, just above ‘Buscar’ (Find).
Afterwards, you should click on the desired name and write the message just
below. Finally, it is necessary to click on ‘Enviar’ (Send). From this point
on, each working team can stablish the ways they prefer to keep in touch. It is
mandatory all students are active on Moovi so that this is effective and works
properly. Those students that
along the semester loose the right to continuous evaluation for having
surpassed the maximum of 3 absences to Sessions B must contact the coordinator
of the subject as soon as possible. In this case, the coordinator will
determine the appropriation of being evaluated according to Non-Attendees’
evaluation system. Being this the case, these students will be integrated into
Non-Attendees working teams, whenever possible. If this is not possible and
given that most of the academic assessment tasks for Non-Attending students
must be done in group and must be submitted on concrete dates, the academic
group tasks of compulsory evaluation that cannot be submitted in group in the
first call, will be submitted in the second call. In appropriate
circumstances, the participation of Attendees in artistic activities out of the
regular lessons of the subject (i.e. commemorations organized by the Faculty),
will imply obtaining extra points to be summed up individually to the final
qualification as long as assessment sections 1, 2 and 3 have been passed. EVALUATION FOR STUDENTS
ENROLLED IN END OF CAREER: Students enrole din End
of Career (‘Fin de Carreira’) must contact the teacher as soon as possible to
request the guidelines of the evaluation conditions to pass the subject. NOTES: a. The assessment
sections passed in the 1st opportunity will not be subject of
evaluation in the 2nd opportunity, being considered, therefore, as passed
in this academic year. If required, both teamwork and individual work are compulsory. b. The official dates
of the exams are available on the official website of the Faculty, in ‘Teaching’
à ‘Exams’. The call and the instructions for the practical performances
will be announced on the virtual classroom of the subject in section ‘Avaliación e cualificacións’
(Evaluation and Qualifications). c. According to the inclusive
nature that characterizes the Faculty of Education and Social Work, this guide may
be adapted to meet the PIUNE (PAT) students’ specific educational support
needs.
d.
With the purpose to facilitate conciliation between work and academic training,
the contents, planning, methodological resources, and system of evaluation will
be adapted for students of the Degree Adaptation Course, guaranteeing, anyway,
the achievement of the skills and the learning outcomes established in this
document. A specific folder will be opened on the platform Moovi, in which all
the information about the evaluation tasks and tests to be done will be
available, which will guide in the study. This may be helpful both for students
of the Degree Adaptation Course and practitioners. |
