Written essays must be handed in before the deadline set by the teacher, and always before the course is over. The essay, if there has been no presentation , is to be delivered by Dec 15th (and June 15th for the second opportunity). Those students that have already done acceptable exercises and essays or presentations will not have to write new ones. Students sitting the December exam (final exam broughtforward) will be assessed according to the criteria specified for the July opportunity. DIVERSITY: This module can be adapted to students who need support for their particular situation(physical, visual, auditory, cognitive, learning process, or related to mentalhealth). If necessary, students should contact the services available in UDC/in their school or faculty, or the Unidadde Atención a la Diversidad (ADI) at the beginning of each academic semester inthe timeframe officially established ( https://www.udc.es/cufie/adi/apoioalumnado/ ); alternatively, they can contact the ADI tutor in the Faculty of Philology at the following address: pat.filoloxia@udc.gal ). -In accordance with the various regulations governing university teaching, it is necessary to incorporate a gender perspective into this subject. This includes, among other measures, the use of non-sexist language, bibliographies that are inclusive from a gender perspective, and encouraging participation from all students in class, regardless of their gender. -We will pay particular attention to identifying and addressing sexist prejudices and attitudes. We will actively work towards the modification of this environment and the promotion of values of respect and equality. -Our efforts will focus on detecting cases of gender discrimination and implementing appropriate actions to rectify such cases. Any plagiarized exercise or test will result in a failing grade (0) in this subject in accord with article 11, section 4b, of the "Regulamento disciplinar do estudantado da UDC":
