EVALUATION CRITERIA FOR ATTENDEES. FIRST OPPORTUNITY OF EVALUATION. On the first day of class, students will be handed in an evaluation option sheet, in which they must choose between the continuous assessment system or the global evaluation system. They must return the completed sheet back to the professor no later than one month. Within the continuous evaluation system, in the first opportunity of evaluation, they will not be able to change to the modality of global evaluation. Students who opt for the continuous assessment will take the different tests described in the section on assessment throughout the course, i.e. two multiple-choice tests (3 points in total; 1.5 points for each area of knowledge), two papers that will be handed in to the professor (1.5 points in total; 0.75 points for each area of knowledge), as well as the resolution of practical cases that will be handed in to the lecturer and discussed in groups (1.5 points in total; 0.75 points for each area of knowledge). These assignements all together will count for a maximum of 6 points (three points for each area of knowledge, namely Constitutional Law and Public International Law). In addition, the student will take a final written exam that will be held on the date scheduled in the exam calendar of the faculty and which will be evaluated up to a maximum of 4 points (2 points in relation with each area of knowledge). The qualification of the continuous evaluation activities will only be added if the students pass both parts of the final exam, i.e. the part of Constitutional Law and Public International Law. EVALUATION CRITERIA FOR NON ATTENDEES. FIRST OPPORTUNIY OF EVALUATION Those students who do not follow the continuous evaluation, will be examined through the global evaluation modality, which will consist of two parts: a written exam with 4 questions of development (2 from each area of knowlege) as well as the resolution of 2 case studies from each area of knowledge. The written test will be graded up to a maximum of 8 points (4 points each part) and the resolution of the practical case up to a maximum of 2 points (1 point each part). The mark of the resolution of the practical case will only be added to that of the written exam as long as the students pass the 2 parts of the final theoretical exam. In any case, the competences and learning outcomes evaluated will be the same as in the system of evaluation for attendees. EVALUATION CRITERIA FOR 2nd OPPORTUNITY AND END OF CAREER EVALUATIONS 1.Students who, opting for the continuous evaluation system do not pass the subject at the first opportunity, will keep the grade they obtained in the continuous evaluation when taking the second opportunity (June/July exam and, if applicable, following academic year), previous petition to the professor, and having to do exclusively the theoretical part of the exam that will consist, as in the first opportunity, in questions to develop. 2.
