Assessment comments | |||
General Observations In order to pass this course the average mark of the different tasks and assessment tests must be 5 out of 10. In addition, the minimum mark of each task (case study, problem solving and laboratory practices), as well as the objective test could not be less than 4, even if the total average mark is 5 or more. Likewise, students must carry out at least half the required activities. If this is not the case, student will not be graded and will be recorded as "non presentado" (absent) in the official report. Students who do not sit for the official exam will also obtain NP ("non presentado"), regardless of the activities carried out previously. Students who do not pass the course will be able to opt for the July opportunity (see section below). Students are expected to complete all the assignments and readings suggested by the lecturer(s), and to come to the sessions prepared to discuss them. Students must visit the eLearning platform for the course regularly. Students are expected to check their university email on a regular basis: announcements and last-minute changes will be notified via email. Academic misconduct will be penalised in accordance with"Normas de avaliación, revisión e reclamación das cualidicacións dos estudos de grao e mestrado universitario" (art. 14). in order to detect wrong citations, plagiarism or any other type of fraud. Should this occur, the University rules for plagiarism will be applied. Turnitin recognises papers previously turned in by other people (or the student him/herself) at this University or other universities, as well as other material found on the Internet. July Opportunity Students who fail to pass the subject in January will be required to take the “second opportunity” in July, with the following distribution of percentages:
Students who have passed any part of the subject (with a mark higher than 5), will not have to repeat it in July. Part-time Students Students who are officially registered as part time, and have been granted permission not to attend classes, as stipulated in the regulations of this University, will be assessed in either of the opportunities according to the same criteria specified for the second opportunity. DIVERSITY: This module can be adapted for students who need support for their particular situation (physical, visual,auditory, cognitive, learning process, or related to mental health). If necessary, students should contact the services available in UDC/in their faculty, or the Unidad de Atención a la Diversidad (ADI) at the beginning of each academic semester in the timeframe officially established (https://www.udc.es/cufie/adi/apoioalumnado/ );alternatively, they can contact the ADI tutor in the Faculty of Philology at the following address: pat.filoloxia@udc.gal ). |
