| Methodologies | Competencies | Description | Qualification |
| Simulation | B2 B4 B5 B6 B7 C1 | It is compulsory, under professor demand, to deliver the proposed home tasks and simulations on time along this course. The delivered tasks and simulations will be assessed by the professor and will be considered for the final qualification. | 60 |
| Objective test | B2 B6 C1 | Is the exam. | 40 |
| Assessment comments | |||
|
In order to pass this subject it is necessary to achieve a qualification above four over ten in the exam. It is also necessary to deliver the required homework in the correct manner and up to the limiting required time. In case the homework is not delivered in the correct way and time the pupil will loose the possibility to pass this subject.
The students presence is not required and is not scored. Therefore there will be no difference between the partial time and full time students. All of them will develop the same work/requirements in order to pass the subject. |
