Assessment criteria
If there are students who wish to participate in the early December evaluation (Article 19, "Standards for evaluation, review, and qualification claims for undergraduate and master's degree studies"), considering that this course is offered once a year, those students will only be required to take the mixed objective/subjective test, which accounts for 70% of the overall grade, and complete the supervised project, which contributes 30% to the final grade. The supervised project should be completed individually. To successfully pass the course, students must achieve a final grade equal to or higher than 5 points out of 10, provided that they have obtained a score equal to or higher than 4 points out of 10 in each of the assessment methodologies. No grade Students who do not attend the final exam scheduled according to the faculty's official exam calendar will receive a grade of "No presentado" (i.e., no grade). This policy applies to both the first and second assessment opportunities, as well as the early December call. Students with recognition of part-time dedication and academic exemption waiver Regarding students who have been granted recognition of part-time dedication and an academic exemption waiver, they are required to inform the course instructor at the beginning of the academic year. This is necessary to establish a plan and calendar of activities for them. The assessment system for these students will consist of a mixed objective/subjective test, which accounts for 60% of the overall grade, supervised projects (20%), and case studies (20%). It is important to note that the supervised project should be completed as a group assignment. Additional information Engaging in fraudulent behaviour in any of the assessed methodologies will lead to a final grade of "Fail (0)" in the corresponding call of the academic year, whether the offence is committed at the first or second opportunity. Please note that the use of AI tools, such as Chat GPT, is strictly prohibited in any submissions, including case studies and the group project. Furthermore, it is strictly forbidden to bring any device capable of data transmission and/or storage, such as mobile phones or smartwatches, into the examination room during any of the assessment tests. |
