Assessment comments |
<p>in the June evaluation students will present an essay on the texts studies (50%) and sit an examination (50%). Students who satisfactorily presented work throughout the course do not need to hand in any additional essay. students who do not attend either of the two exams will be given the grade of "non presentado" if they have not done at least 50% of the assessment work during the course. Part-time and students with special dispensation must contat the teachers at the beginning of the course in order to plan each individual situation and the changes needed to compensate the percentages of the grade arising from directed discussion, reading and supervise projects.</p>
