Assessment comments |
The evaluation criteria in the 2nd opportunity and in the forward one are the same as those in
the 1st opportunity. Students with recognition of part-time dedication DO NOT
have an academic exemption of attendance exemption for Laboratory Practices,
although they will be given facilities regarding the dates of completion prior
communication. The criteria and evaluation activities for this student will be
the same as for the rest of the students. The fraudulent completion of exams or evaluation activities, once confirmed, will directly result in a failing grade in the session in which it occurs: the student will be awarded a 'fail' (numerical grade of 0) in the corresponding academic year session, whether the offense is committed during the first opportunity or the second. To this end, their grade will be modified in the first opportunity transcript, if necessary. |

To help achieve a sustained immediate environment and meet the goal of action number 5: "Healthy and environmental and social teaching and research" of the "Green Campus Ferrol Action Plan", the following recommendations are made: -Make a sustainable use of resources and the prevention of negative impacts on the natural environment -The delivery of the documentary works that are made in this matter: • It will be done through Moodle, in digital format without the need to print them • If it is necessary to make them on paper: - Plastics will not be used - Double-sided prints will be made. - Recycled paper will be used. - The printing of drafts will be avoided. In general, sustainable use of resources will be made and negative impacts on the natural environment will be avoided as far as possible. In addition, the importance of ethical principles related to sustainability values in personal and professional behaviors will be taken into account. As stated in the different regulations applicable to university teaching, the gender perspective will be incorporated in this area (non-sexist language will be used, bibliography of authors of both sexes will be used, the intervention in class of students will be encouraged ...). Work will be done to identify and modify prejudices and sexist attitudes, and the environment will be influenced to modify them and promote values of respect and equality. Situations of discrimination based on gender will be detected and actions and measures will be proposed to correct them. The full integration of students who, for physical, sensory, mental or sociocultural reasons, experience difficulties with suitable, equal and profitable access to university life will be facilitated.
