The continuous assessment tests allow students to obtain a final grade based solely on their path along the course, and consist of: One. 4 short-answer tests, with 10% of the total grade each, totaling 40%. Two. Systematic observation in the seminars, which account for 30%. Three. Evaluation of supervised work (15%) and the presentation of them (15%). Continuous assessment tasks are not recoverable, and they are only valid for the current year. A student is assumed to have opted for continuous assessment when he/she has been made two of the short-answer tests and has participated in two debate activities. A student who chooses to continuous assessment is deemed to have been presented to the subject, whether they are present or not to the final exam. If a student, having submitted to continuous assessment, chooses the final exam, the final grade for the course will be the average of the two. Under the regulations of the University of Vigo, the student who wishes may choose 100% of the final grade by a single final exam. The final exam is one that is done in the official dates marked on School Board in the months of December or January (or July in the case of special consideration), and who are obliged to attend those students who have not opted for continuous assessment and want to pass the subject. The final exam will consist of a development test, as described in the evaluation section. The resit exam will have a similar structure to the final exam. |
