Other comments on the Evaluation
This subject consists of two units: Unit I: Public Health and Unit II: Community Physiotherapy. The evaluation will be made of each unit separately, being necessary, to pass the subject, to attend the seminars and pass the two units independently; and, within them, each of its parts: theory and seminars, also independently.

Public Health Unit (PH): the theoretical knowledge exam will count for 40% and the seminars for 10%.

Community Physiotherapy Unit (CP): the theoretical knowledge exam will count for 40% and the seminars for 10%.

The final mark will be the average of the two Units, if both are approved or failed. If only one unit, or part of it, is passed, that pass will be kept within the same academic year (until july), but not from one course to the next, and the mark will be that of the failed part.

CONTINUOUS ASSESSMENT: It is the preferred option and the one offered by default. In the continuous assessment, the students will perform:

* A partial exam of theoretical knowledge once half of the theoretical content has been completed: it will count for 40% of the final grade: 20% of the PH Unit and 20% of the CP Unit; It will be carried out within the schedule assigned to the classes of the subject. If it is suspended, it cannot be recovered in the ordinary call and it will go with this part to the exam of the 2nd opportunity.

* Another partial exam of theoretical knowledge in the ordinary call: it will count for 40% of the final grade: 20% of the PH Unit and 20% of the CP Unit.

* Seminars: they will be evaluated as explained in the upper section.

GLOBAL EVALUATION (if the continuous evaluation is waived): Students who do not want to follow the continuous evaluation must notify it in writing, following the procedure established in the Faculty of Physiotherapy. Waiving continuous assessment must be done in the 5th week of teaching, which means that the global assessment established in the subject will be assumed. Once the resignation to the continuous evaluation has been made, there will be no right to it; Choosing the global assessment modality means waiving the right to continue evaluating the activities of the continuous assessment modality that remain to be done and the qualification obtained up to that moment in any of the tests that have already taken place.

In this case, partial exams will not be carried out. There will be a global evaluation test: a theoretical knowledge exam on the official date of the ordinary call, which will count for 80% of the final grade: 40% for the PH Unit and 40% for the CP Unit. To this score will be added 20% of the mark of the seminars, evaluated as explained in the upper section.

2nd CHANCE EVALUATION: It is an extraordinary evaluation, of recovery of the subject, or parts of it, failed.

The students who have done continuous evaluation and have failed any of the partial exams, should only be examined from them. It will have the same evaluation criteria as in the ordinary call in this modality.

The students who have renounced the continuous evaluation and have adhered to the global evaluation, will have the same evaluation criteria as in the ordinary call in this modality.
