Continuous assessment: The continuous assessment activities
will be carried out during the teaching period and correspond to 30% of the grade. Final Exam: counts for 70% of
the course grade. The exam will be taken on the official date set by the EEI
direction. Requirements to pass the course: It is necessary to achieve a minimum score of 40% in the final exam, that is: 2.8 / 7. If this minimum is not reached, students will receive a "No pass" in their transcripts. Even though the sum of the marks obtained in the written exam and the continuous assesment is higher than 5, the maximum grade that will be included in the academic records will be 4.5 points. Renouncing continuous assessment: Students that do not follow the continuous assessment activities, after receiving authorization from
the EEI direction, will be evaluated through a final written exam on the contents
of all the course, covering both lecture and labo contents, counting for 100% of the grade. A minimum mark of 5 (50%) will be required to pass the course.
July exam (2nd Edition): In the July edition, the
continuous assessment marks will be also considered (only marks obtained in the current academic year). The characteristics of the exam will be the same as the first
edition, and will be taken on the official date set by the EEI direction. However, if a student so wishes, after informing the professor in advance, he or she can be evaluated on all the theoretical and practical contents of the subject by means of a written exam. In this case, the marks obtained will count as 100% of the grade, requiring 50% to pass the course Extraordinary Call: The extraordinary call exam
contents will cover the entire course, including both lecture and labo contents, counting for 100% o the grade. A minimum mark of 5 (50%) will be required to pass the course.
Ethical commitment: Students are expected to carry
out their work in accordance with an appropriate ethical behaviour. If the
professor detects a behaviour that constitutes academic dishonesty (cheating,
plagiarism, use of unauthorized electronic devices, for example) the student will be deemed not to meet all the criteria
to pass the course, and will be informed that the final grade of this
course will be FAIL (0.0). The use of any electronic
device will not be allowed during the evaluation tests, unless expressly
authorized. Introducing an unauthorized electronic device into the exam room will
be considered reason enough for not passing the course in the present academic year,
and the final grade will be: FAIL (0.0). Attention: If there is any mismatch between the contents of the 3 language versions of this teaching guide, those included in the English version will be considered valid. |
