Description |
The accounting problems proposed to be solved in the classroom or outside the classroom are intended to strengthen the understanding of the accounting concepts and technique. To do this, the student will be guided by the teacher so that s/he can reach the solution/s of the cases that are proposed. This orientation will be carried out in the classroom, when the student requests it or the teacher perceives that the student is having difficulties to address the question to be solved, but also in individual tutorials, as well as through the virtual forum of the subject or the Teams chat. Finally, personalized attention is also very important in small group tutorials (SGTs), aimed at guiding and monitoring the team project on financial statement analysis. These SGTs are not scheduled in the timetable published by the FEE and will likely be developed in weeks 10, 11 and 12 of the course.

Assessment comments |
CLASS ATTENDANCE AND CONTINUOUS ASSESSMENT Class attendance is critical to achieving the subject's learning goals. For this reason, to assess continuing evaluation activities (objective test, practical tests, and oral presentation) a minimum attendance of 70% will be required. If this percentage is not reached, these activities will be rated with zero points.
EVALUATION CALLS
a) First call: 70% continuous assessment (as described in this guide) and 30% final exam.
b) Second call: 70% continuous assessment and 30% final exam. With regard to continuous assessment, the student may choose between maintaining the grade achieved during the semester or taking a substitute test of the continuing assessment activities. This test will be fully or partially oral, will deal with any theoretical or practical aspect worked throughout the course and will represent 70% of the final mark.
c) Early call ("Oportunidade adiantada"): A single test, totally or partially oral, will be carried out, designed to evaluate all the contents and competencies of the course. The grade of this test will represent 100% of the final mark.
