Assessment comments

Attendance at practical sessions is necessary for being allowed to take the exam.

The final exam of the first call (at the end of the 1st semester) will represent 60% of the final grade. The remaining 40% will be the practicals report and the results of the evaluable activities of the discussion sessions (20% and 20%, respectively). Anyone who has participated in the Practicals and 3 or more evaluable activities can not opt for the "No presentado". Additionally, knowing that during the course students begin exercising certain skills  in some cases by themselves), active participation in seminars and guided discussions will be positively valued. In particular, the contributions to the seminar and the forum will be taken in consideration for the final grade.

Exceptionally, under justified reasons , students that could not take all the continuous assessment tests (part-time students or specific circumstances of learning), measures that deem it convenient not to damage their rating will be adopted.

In the second call (July), as long as the practices have been carried out, only the result of the final exam will be taken into account for the final grade.

Honors will be granted preferably among the students that take the exam in the first call.
