Please note that even though utmost care has been placed to ensure the accuracy of this translation, it is possible that some mistakes have been inadvertently made. So, in case of discrepancy between this text and the canonical version available in the Galician language, the latter shall hold. The assessment of the subject can either be based on a continuous assessment or global assessment. Students will choose the continuous assessment if they take the midterm written exam (Ep) around the middle of the semester—never before the first month ends—. The percentages shown in the previous section only reflect the maximum weights that any activity (partial mark) can obtain when following the continuous evaluation strategy, and serve only as illustration. The actual assessment procedure follows: For continuous assessment, the final mark is the weighted geometric mean between the tutored work grade (T) and the corresponding from the written tests (Y). Mark Y is calculated as the arithmetic mean between the final exam (Ef) and partial exam (Ep) marks. Y = ½×(Ef+Ep) FINAL MARK=T^0.4×Y^0.6 Students that opt for the global assessment, must take a final examination that will be made up of two parts: a theory examination, like the final one in the continuous assessment (Ef) and a practical project that must be developed individually (T). The final mark, in this case, will be the weighted geometric mean between the theoretical exam and the project work. Finally, both the extraordinary exam and the end-of-program call will have the same characteristics as the exam-only assessment just described, but students will be allowed to inherit the partial mark of any activity (T or Ef) if that has been passed during the same academic year, independently of the assessment modality that the student had followed. Plagiarism is regarded as serious dishonest behavior. If any form of plagiarism is detected in any of the tests or exams, the final grade will be FAIL (0), and the incident will be reported to the corresponding academic authorities for prosecution. The use of generative artificial intelligence (GAI) is permitted as a tool to complete the academic activities of this subject. Its use must be carried out in an ethical, critical and responsible manner. In the case of using GAI, any result it provides must be critically evaluated, and any citation or reference generated must be carefully verified. It is also recommended to declare the used tools.
