Other comments on the Evaluation

FIRST ATTEMPT:

a)  Option 1: continuous
evaluation



The continuous assessment will be conducted during the
learning process (teaching period of the subject) according to the criteria
established in the previous section. The contribution of each item to the final score is as
follows:

1) Laboratory work (20%). The contents worked in the laboratory
will be assessed with an exam, that will be taken at the end of the semester in a date agreed with the students.
In addition, the attendance to the laboratory sessions as well as the
preparation of reports will be considered. 

2) Preparation and presentation of a project (10%).

3) Mid-term
exam including some of the contents explained in the classroom (30%). This exam will be taken in November. 

4) Final exam
including the remaining contents (those not included in the mid-term exam, 40%).
This exam will be taken in the data officially established by the administration.

To pass this subject a minimum mark of 5, out of 10, is required, that will compile the sum of each item. In addition, a minimum score, 40%, is required in each written exam (mid-term and final) to pass the subject under the continuous evaluation plan. In case this minimum score was not achieved in the mid-term exam and/or in the final exam, the student could pass whether the sum of both marks is, at least, 3.5 (50% of the total mark, that is 7), provided that the sum of the marks in the above listed items is above 5.  

In case
these minimum scores were not achieved, the score achieved in items 1) and 2) will not be considered in the total grading.  

b) Option 2: comprehensive
evaluation


Students have the right to renounce to the continuous
assessment system. This option must be formally asked within the period established
by the lecturer and informed at the beginning of the course. In this situation,
a comprehensive final exam will be taken which includes the entirety of the
contents of the subject (laboratory and theory), and its weight is 100%.
The minimum score to pass it is 5 out of 10. The date of the exam will be fixed
by the administration and can be checked at http://eei.uvigo.es. 

 



SECOND ATTEMPT (exam in July):
a) The score
partially obtained from the continuous assessment option (items 1) and 2)) will
be kept unless the student requests to be cancelled in due course (once cancelled student will be evaluated as described in b)). The exam will cover uniquely the contents explained in the classroom. The weight
of this exam in the grading will be 70%. The same minimum requirements as those indicated in Option 1 will be considered. The final grading will be the sum of the mark in this exam and
the marks obtained in items 1) and 2), in case the minimum scores had been achieved. 
b)Under the
comprehensive assessment system, the totality of the contents of the subject
(those given in the classroom and in the laboratory) will be included in this
final exam and the student could achieved 100% of the grading (the minimum mark
to pass the exam will be 5 out of 10). 

The date of the exam will be fixed by the administration
and can be checked at http://eei.uvigo.es.

 



EXTRAORDINARY CALL
: the exam (questions, tests and/or
exercises) will include the totality of the contents and the qualification will
be 100%. 

Ethical commitment
: student is expected to show an ethical
behaviour. In the case a fraudulent behaviour is detected (copy, plagiarism, use
of forbidden electronic devices, or others), the student will fail and its
final score will be 0.
