Assessment comments |
-The student must review the theoretical concepts introduced in the different topics, using the reference manual and the summaries. The degree of success in solving the proposed exercises provides a measure of the student's preparation to face the final exam of the subject. Those students who encounter significant difficulties when working on the proposed activities should attend the teacher's tutoring hours, with the aim that he can analyze the problem and help solve these difficulties. -Competence assessment system: Final exam: CB7; CB9; CB10; Problem solving and case studies: CG2; CG4; CG5; Completion of work and written reports: CG2; CG4; CG5; Oral presentation (works, reports, problems and practical cases: CG2; CT1; CT3; CT4; Continuous evaluation of the student by means of questions and oral questions during the course: CB7; CB9; CT1 -Indication referring to plagiarism and the inappropriate use of technologies in the development of tasks or tests: "In cases of fraudulent performance of exercises or tests, the provisions of the Regulations for the evaluation of students' academic performance and the review of assessments"

Recommendations for evaluation The student must review the theoretical concepts introduced in the different topics, using the reference manual and the summaries. The degree of success in solving the proposed exercises provides a measure of the student's preparation to face the final exam of the subject. Those students who have significant difficulties when working on the proposed activities should attend the teacher’s tutoring hours, so that the teacher can analyze the problem and help solve those difficulties. It is very important, when preparing for the exam, to solve some of the exercises that appear at the end of each of the chapters of the reference manual. Recommendations for recovery The teacher will analyze with those students who do not successfully pass the evaluation process and, if they so wish, the difficulties encountered in learning the contents of the subject. It will also provide them with additional material (questions, exercises, exams, etc.) to reinforce the learning of the subject • It is highly recommended to attend the exhibition classes from day one, as the different topics in the program are linked to each other. • It is important to keep the study “up to date”. • After reading a topic, it is useful to summarize the important points, identifying the basic issues to remember and making sure you know both their meaning and the conditions under which they can be applied. |
