- Performance at lab classes and reports: 15%.
- Presentation and defense of a group work: 25%.
- Written exams: 45% distributed in two written tests: 20% the first one and 25% the second one. In this second test it will be essential to achieve a minimum grade of 40% of its value to pass the subject.
- - Students who follow the continuous evaluation procedure must compulsorily participate in all the activities listed above, being their final grade the sum of the scores achieved in each specific assessment, with the weighting shown in the table above. To pass the continuous evaluation of the course must obtain a qualification equal to or higher than 5 points out of 10, in addition to achieving a minimum grade of 40% in the grade corresponding to the second written exam.
- If this minimum is not reached, the grade that would appear in the minutes would be a maximum of 4.5, even if the sum of the assessment of the different activities is higher.
- In exceptional cases in which a student cannot participate in a specific session of the above activities, the teacher will agree with the student an alternative activity or test, which will allow him/her to continue with the development of the subject without detriment in the evaluation process. - Students who must take the second edition of the evaluation may keep the qualification obtained in the practical evaluation tests (practical report and defense of the work = 40% final grade) and take a written exam with objective questions in which the theoretical contents of the course will be evaluated and which will be weighted 60% of the final grade. The test will take place on the official date set by the EEI.
