A student that does not participate in at least 80% of the face-to-face activities will be evaluated as "non-assistant". The decision of becoming "non-assistant" can be taken by the student or by the teacher (when it is no longer possible to reach 80% of assistance in the face-to-face activities).

Evaluation criteria for attendees of 1st edition:

Theory evaluation: completion of different activities (for example, reading bibliography, drawing diagrams, studying manuals, etc.) and verification through short written tests throughout the course (even unexpectedly) that will collect corresponding theoretical and practical content of the subject taught during face-to-face classes and in autonomous studies (P1). Taking a final written exam (P2) with different questions.

Practice evaluation: evaluates the completion of the proposed exercises (P4), the preparation of the documentation and related reports (P3). Completion of optional work towards the end of classes (P5).

For attendees, the spirit of calculating the final grade for the subject is as follows: there is a combination of theoretical and practical tests throughout the course and, at the end, to assess the skills acquired. Good results in one part may compensate for not so good results in another part, however a minimum should be achieved in the two most relevant sections (P2 and P4).

The final grade is obtained as follows, assuming that each part (P1-P5) is evaluated on a scale of 0-10:

The course is failed if P2 grade less than 4 or P4 grade less than 4 (the grade of the part that motivates the fail will appear in the grade sheet). The course is approved if min (10, 0.1 * P1 + 0.4 * P2 + 0.25 * P3 + 0.25 * P4 + 0.05 * P5) greater than or equal to 5, if not it is failed.

Evaluation criteria for non-assistants:

Methodology/Exam: the student is evaluated with a final written exam that covers all the content of the course

and evaluates the competencies acquired by the student (allowing a random sample to limit the time of the exam to 3 hours). % Rating: 95%. Evaluated competences: all. Evaluated learning outcomes: all.

Methodology/Practices: Submission of the practices proposed during the laboratory hours. % Rating: 5%. Evaluated competences: all. Learning outcomes assessed: RA2, RA3, RA4. 

Evaluation criteria for the 2nd edition:

Students who failed the first edition will have a similar assessment during the 2nd edition of evaluation. They have the possibility to redo any of the sections of the activities, except the sections "short questions" (P1) and "problem solving and / or recovery exercises" (P5).

If they wish, these students can choose to be evaluated as non-assistant.

Evaluation criteria for the final degree edition:

Since the end-of-degree exams are carried out at the beginning of the course, it is evaluated without assistance with the possibility of evaluating the report and the deliveries of the practices through the work already carried out during the previous registered course.


The schedule of exams officially approved by the Board of the ESEI Center is published on the website http://www.esei.uvigo.es. There is coordination between the subjects of the same course to balance the continuous assessment process during the course.
