Other comments on the Evaluation
The students can choose the method of evaluation, continuous or single. The Continuous Evaluation (CE) consist of three previous tests plus a final exam: A midterm exam (ME) in the 10th week, which will cover the contents of lectures 1 to 7, and represents 20% of the final grade (FG) The development of a network program (NP). The deadline will be the day of the final exam. The compliance of prescriptions and the quality of the software will determine the qualification of this test. Depending on the number of students, teachers may allow this program to be done by couples of students but in that case both members of the couple must belong to the same group of laboratory and both of them must follow continuous assessment. The NP represents 20% of the final (NF) Participation in online activities (AO) that will be proposed along the course and in the activities of raising questions and answer them. The OA represents 10% of the final grade (NG) A final exam (FE) covering all the contents, which has a weight of 50% of the final grade (FG) FG-CE = 0.2xME + 0.1xOA + 0.2xNP + 0.5xFE The Single Evaluation (SE) will consist of the same Final Exam at the end of the semester and the same Network Program (NP) proposed for CE. In this case, the program must be made mandatory and delivered individually. The grade of NP in this case is simply APT (with a numeric value 1), if it meets the minimum requirements or NOT APT (with a numeric value 0) in the other case or if the NP is not delivered, in which case the grade will be 40% of the FE. That is, FG-SE = (0.4 + 0.6xNP) x FE It is considered that a student choose CE when presenting to the midterm exam. The students not doing this exam must opt for SE. In July there will be a new FE and also it will be allowed the delivery of a new NP consisting of a modified version of the May program, and whose specifications will be published with at least 4 weeks with respect to the deadline of the Final Exam. Any student, regardless opting for CE or SE, will be able to do this FE and present a new NP For students who chose CE, these FE and NP represent an opportunity to improve the grade in these with respect to May, and so the calculation of the final grade considers the best grade obtained between May and July. For students who chose to SE, the FE and the NP are considered joint and inseparable, that is, FG-SE = Max[(0.4 + 0.6xNP-May) x FE-May, (0.4 + 0.6xNP-July) x FE-July] The grades of all written tests, partial or final, programs and activities will only take effect in the academic year in which they are proposed.
