Assessment comments

Laboratorio de Química 2 (LQ2) is an experimental curse and the attendance to all the evaluation activities is mandatory. For this reason, all the students will be graded in all activities with the flexibility that the coordination schedules and the material and human resources allow. To pass LQ2, it is necessary to obtain in the workshop, the mixed test, the practical text and the laboratory practices (corresponding to either the standard operations or the characterization of physicochemical properties) a note equal to or greater than 4 on 10. Therefore, students with a global grade equal to or greater than 5 who have not reached the qualification of 4 in any evaluable activity will be graded as not pass (grade of 4.5). Students who had not attended to the activities required to reach 25% of the global grade will receive the unpresented qualification. The students who have not reached the qualification of 4 in the advanced opportunity for the practical test will have to repeat it in the first or the second opportunity.

Regarding to the second opportunity of evaluation: (1) The qualifications of the laboratory practices (corresponding to either the standard operations or the characterization of physicochemical properties) will be preserved at the second opportunity. (2) The qualifications obtained for the practical test and mixed test in the second opportunity will substitute to those obtained in the the corresponding tests of the first opportunity. (3) The qualification obtained for the workshops could be preserved in the second opportunity or, in an alternative way, students could perform an optional exercise to evaluate the activities developed in the workshops during the course. (4) The students evaluated in the second opportunity will only be eligible for the Honored Grade (Matrícula de Honor) if the maximum number of these grades for the corresponding course has not been covered in full at the first opportunity.

The teaching-learning process, including the evaluation, refers to a complete academic course and, therefore, will start again with a new academic year, including all the activities and evaluation procedures that are schedulled for that course.

Students with part-time dedication will be evaluated with the criteria previously explained. Students with academic exemption from attendance or specific modalities of learning or support for diversity may be evaluated only through laboratory practices (standard operations and physical-chemical characterization), practical test and mixed test, both in the first as in the second opportunity (they will have dispensation of attendance to the workshops, corresponding to 10% of the global qualification). For those students who took advantage of the workshop attendance waiver, the mixed test will contribute to 40% of the overall score. The attendance to the laboratory practices is mandatory and the students will be graded with all the flexibility that the coordination schedules and the material and human resources available can offer. In the case of exceptional, objectivable and adequately justified circumstances, the responsible professor could exempt a student from attending the process of continuous evaluation of laboratory practices. The student who is in this circumstance must pass a specific examination (corresponding to 100% of the grade) precluding any doubt about the achievement of the knowledge, skills and competences of the subject.
