Passing the course requires a minimum of 50 points, and at the same time the condition of obtaining a minimum of 40% of the Mixed Test, the Objective Tests, and the laboratory practice score must be met. In the case that the minimum score is not reached in any part, if the mean of the set is greater than or equal to 50 points, a failing grade will be awarded (45 out of 100 points). Since the qualification is based on a continuous assessment model, the progression of the students throughout the semester will be specifically assessed, with a maximum of 10 point that can be added to the final grade. The evaluation cannot be positive if students did not attend all the laboratory practices. The student will not be graded if the participation in activities that contribute to the final grade is below 25% of the activities. The "second chance in July" is understood exclusively as a second opportunity to take the mixed-test: the mixed-test will be repeated, representing 50% of the grade. The marks obtained in the other activities carried out during the course will be added to this mark. Honours will be awarded mainly to students who pass the subject at the first opportunity. It will only be awarded on the "second chance" if the maximum number is not covered on the first opportunity.
Students who qualify for the "Part Time Dedication Recognition and Academic Waiver of Attendance" in accordance with UDC regulations, must attend laboratory practices. The final mark for these students will consist of two parts: the grade obtained in the laboratory practices, which will contribute 20% to the final mark, and the mixed test, which will compute for the remaining 80%. These grading percentages will apply to both opportunities. In the case of exceptional, objectionable and duly justified circumstances, the coordinator of the subject may totally or partially exempt the student from participating in the continuous assessment process. Students who are in this circumstance must pass a specific test that leaves no doubt about the achievement of the subject's competences.
Fraudulent performance
in the assessment tests or activities, once verified, will directly imply a
failing mark of "0" in the subject at the corresponding opportunity.
According to the "Regulations of the regime of dedication to the study of undergraduate students at the UDC" (Art.3.be 4.5) and the "Rules of evaluation, review and claims of the qualifications of undergraduate and master's studies" (Art 3 and 8b), students with recognition of part-time dedication and academic dispensation of the attendance exemption must be able to participate in a training and associated teaching activities that allow them to achieve the training objectives and competencies of the subject. Therefore, they will participate in a personalised guidance system and assessment tutorials that will serve, on the one hand, to guide the autonomous work of the students and monitor their progress during the course, and on the other hand, to assess the degree of development of competence achieved.
The percentage of dispensation will be fixed in a first interview with the students, once their personal situation is known. In this way, a schedule will be established for the guidance tutorials, and the number of problem-solving workshops that will be evaluated using this methodology will be determined (every two seminars or workshop sessions will be evaluated using 1 tutorial). Once they are known, their number will be weighted over the total and the number of tutorials in which these students must participate will be established. All of them will be agreed with the students according to their availability, according to the schedule of contents of the subject and specifying the deadlines of the different materials to mark (problems and questions). This material will be delivered to the student in advance through the Moodle platform according to the schedule agreed in the initial interview.
The tutoring sessions will be used to discuss aspects associated with both the contents of the subject and the review of the submitted tasks, in addition to the performance of short assessment tests to verify whether students take advantage of these activities.
