Students are required to participate actively in the teaching sessions, which are designed as a resource to encourage them to acquire and assimilate the contents. First attemptStudents must obtain a passing grade (50%) on eachsection included in the assessment (workshop, virtual discussion and mixed test). If they obtain a failing grade on any of these sections and even though the sum is greater than 5, the final grade for this attempt will not be higher than 4.5 out of 10. Students with a waiver on attendance Students with a waiver on attendance will be assessed in accordance with the section referring to the first session. Students must contact the teaching staff as soon as they have received official notification of the waiver. Second attempt The same assessment method applies for the second session as for the first, and students must retake those sections of the subject in which they did not obtain a passing grade or which they did not sit. In the case of the Workshop, this will consist of an additional task that will be included in the mixed objective/subjective test (written exam). This is ONLY valid for the two opportunities corresponding to the current academic year. Early exam session In the case of the early exam session, students must take a written exam (70%) and an oral exam (30%). ABSENT Only those students that have not taken part in any of the activities and tasks that comprise the overall assessment of the subject will receive the consideration of ABSENT. Academic dishonesty/plagiarism Students who commit academic fraud will be subject to the corresponding sanctions pursuant to the University of A Coruña's disciplinary regulations for students (art. 11, section 4. b). "The student will be graded with a"fail" (numerical grade 0) for the corresponding academic year, regardless of whether the offence is committed during the first or second attempt.In this sense, the grade for the first session may be modified, if necessary." Diversity Students may request measures aimed at supporting diversity (physical, visual, auditory, cognitive, learning or mental health-related). They should contact, the services available at the UDC, the Diversity Attention Unit(https://www.udc.es/cufie/ADI/apoioalumnado/) or, failing that, the tutor with responsibility for diversity at the Faculty of Tourism, within the time period stipulated for each teaching session. Gender perspective In accordance with the various regulations governing university teaching, a gender perspective must be included in this subject. This includes, among other measures, the use of non-sexist language, bibliographies that are inclusive from a gender perspective, and encouraging the participation of all students in class, regardless of their gender. Particular attention will be paid to identifying and addressing sexist prejudices and attitudes. We will work actively to modify this environment and promote values of respect and equality. Any cases of gender discrimination detected will be addressed and appropriate actions taken. |
