The students who do not attend more than three hours of lectures will not be evaluated as continous assessment. They should take a final exam, that will count 60 % of the final grade. The other 40 % will be the marks of a personal essay. Students who have a waiver of class attendance under justified causes will be examined from an objective final test that will include 100% of the grade. Every professor will explain, in the first session of the course, the methodology and evaluation system that he or she will follow in their group, within those established in this guide. The evaluation criteria of the second opportunity will be the same as those of the first, except for the possibility of continuous assessment. In the event of plagiarism, the UDC regulations will apply. |
