  Description Qualification Training and Learning Results
Short answer tests The questions are related to a particular fundamental point or basic topic for the assessment of the associated learning outcomes. The student must be able to answer them in a direct and clear way showing or revealing its knowledge about fundamentals 50 B10
C2
Troubleshooting and / or exercises The student must solve problems or exercises on his/her own in a prescribed period of time and previously established conditions. This test could be face-to-face or virtual (using chat, email, forum, audio-conference, etc.) 40 B10

Other comments on the Evaluation

1. CONTINUOUS ASSESSMENT

CONTINUOUS ASSESSMENT TESTS (40%)

- Mark A0 (20%) will be obtained from short answer tests on
topics of Parts I and II

- Mark L0 (20%) will be obtained from a problem solving test on topics
of Part III.1 (10%) and from the open lab report (or the topic report) corresponding to Part III.2 (10%). Only students that have regularly attended the lab sessions can obtain the
mark L0

FINAL EXAM (60%)

- It is held in the December-January
call

- Mark T1 (30%) will be obtained from a short answer test on topics of Parts I and II

- Mark P1 (30%) will be obtained
from a problem solving test on topics of Parts I and II

GLOBAL MARK

- The global mark G1
is obtained as

G1 = T1 + P1 + L0
+ A0

- To pass the course, a student must obtain a global mark G1 equal to or higher than 5


2. END-TERM ASSESSMENT

EXAM THAT REPLACES CONTINUOUS ASSESSMENT TESTS (40%)

- It is held in the
December-January call

- Mark A1 (20%) will be obtained from a short answer
test on topics of Parts I y II

- Mark L1 (20%) will be obtained from a problem solving test on topics
of Part III.1.

GLOBAL MARK

- In this case the global
mark G1 is obtained as

G1 = T1 + P1 + L1
+ A1

- To pass the course, a student must obtain a global mark G1 equal to or higher than 5

- A student that had
previously obtained marks L0
or A0 (or both) would choose
between:

a) answering the test corresponding to mark L1 and/or mark A1,
in such a way that the new mark L1 replaces
L0 and/or the new mark A1 replaces A0

b) holding mark L0 and/or mark A0 instead of answering
the test corresponding to mark L1 and/or mark A1, respectively


3. ASSESSMENT IN THE SECOND
CALL (JUNE-JULY)

FINAL EXAM (60%)

- It is held in the
June-July call

- Mark T2 (30%) will be obtained from a short
answer test on topics of Parts I and II

- Mark P2 (30%) will be obtained
from a problem solving test on topics of Parts I and II

EXAM THAT REPLACES CONTINUOUS ASSESSMENT TESTS
(40%)

- It is held in the
June-July call

- Mark A2 (20%) will be obtained from a short answer test on topics of Parts I y II

- Mark L2 (20%) will be obtained from a problem solving test on
topics of Part III.1

GLOBAL MARK

- In this case the global
mark G2 is obtained as

G2 = T2 + P2 + L2
+ A2

- To pass the course, a student must obtain a global mark G2 equal to or higher than 5

- A student that had previously
obtained marks L0, L1, 
A0 or A1 would choose between:

a) answering the test corresponding to mark L2 and/or mark A2,
in such a way that the new mark L2
and/or the new mark A2 will replace the
marks of the same type (L0 or L1 and/or A0 or A1,
respectively)

b) holding the
most recent marks of each type (L0 or L1
and/or A0 or A1) instead of answering the test corresponding to mark L2
and/or mark A2, respectively


4. NOTATION FOR MARKS

- L = the latest mark among L0,
L1 and L2

- A = the latest mark among A0,
A1 and A2



- T = T1 in December-January call (1st edition) or T2 in June-July call (2nd
edition)

- P = P1 in December-January
call (1st edition) or P2 in
June-July call (2nd edition)

- G = G1 in December-January call (1st edition) or G2 in June-July call (2nd
edition)

- In any
of the calls the global mark G is
obtained as

G = T + P + L + A

- To pass the course, a student must obtain a global mark G equal to or higher than 5


5. SUPPLEMENTARY ASSESSMENT RULES

- Presentation of DNI or any
other identification document is compulsory during tests and exams

- Resources and material
that can be used in the tests and final exams:

a) In problem solving test on topics of parts I and II (corresponding to
marks P1 and P2) it is allowed to
employ notes about theory adequately bound (this includes both the Department lecture notes
on the subject and the handwritten notes of the student, exclusively about theory), one
textbook and one mathematics handbook (Bronshtein or similar). It is forbidden the user of any workbooks or collections of worked out problems

b) In any other case, the use of any additional resources is forbidden

c) Students should not
possess or use any electronic device during the tests and exams, unless
specifically authorised to do so. The mere fact that a student carries an
unauthorised electronic device into the examination room will result in failing
the subject in the present academic year and the global mark will be “suspenso”
(0.0)

- The tests and exams will
be jointly defined and assessed by the teaching team of the subject

- The dates for the final
exams at each call will be assigned by the board of directors of the School of Industrial
Engineering (E.E.I.)



- The
date and hours for revision of marks and tests results will be announced in
advance. Revision out of this date and hours will be possible only if a
reasonable reason for non-attendance is documented

6. ETHICAL COMMITMENT

Every student is expected to follow an appropriate
ethical behaviour. In the case that unethical conduct is detected (copy,
plagiarism, utilisation of unauthorised electronic devices, or others), it will
be considered that the student does not fulfil the necessary requirements to
pass the subject. In this case, the global mark in the present academic year
will be “suspenso” (0.0)
