Assessment comments

In order to pass this subject, a mark of 5 out of 10 is the minimum required in each section of the assesment (mixed test, project and practical test). Late submissions will not be accepted unless duly justified. Students who do not attend the official exam will be given an absent mark if they have not handed in 50% of the continuous assessment activities.  

Any plagiarized exercise or test will result in a failing grade (0) in this subject in accordance with article 11, section 4b, of the "Regulamento disciplinar do estudantado da UDC":

Cualificación de suspenso na convocatoria en que se cometa a falta e respecto da materia en que se cometese: o/a estudante será cualificado con "suspenso" (nota numérica 0) na convocatoria correspondente do curso académico, tanto se a comisión da falta se produce na primeira oportunidade como na segunda. Para isto, procederase a modificar a súa cualificación na acta de primeira oportunidade, se fose necesario.

July Exam Period: 

Students will not need to re-sit the parts they have previously passed. They can retake the parts they have failed according to the following distribution of percentages: project and oral presentation (20%), mixed test (60%), and an assignment equivalent to the practical tasks (20%). 

Students who are officially registered as part time and have been granted permission not to attend classes, as stipulated in the regulations of this University (approved by the Consello Social on 4 May 2017), will notify the instructor in the first week of classes and, if that proves impossible, within seven days from the date of acknowledgement. They will carry out the required practical work individually and hand it in before the deadline. Late submissions will not be accepted unless duly justified. The final mark will be the weighted average grade of the assessed work carried out during the course. In order to pass this subject, a minimum of 5 out of 10 in the final mark is required. Students will be required to take the second opportunity in July if they fail to pass the first opportunity. 

Gender equality: 

A gender perspective will be incorporated into this subject. This will include, among other measures, the use of non-sexist language, the selection of books and articles written by men and by women, as well as encouraging participation from all students in class, regardless of their gender. In addition, sexist prejudices and attitudes will be addressed and efforts will be directed towards the modification of this environment and the promotion of values of respect and equality. In the event of gender discrimination, appropriate actions will be implemented to rectify such cases.
