Methodologies Competencies Description Qualification
Case study A7 A8 A9 A10 A13 A14 A15 A16 A18 A20 A23 A24 A26 A29 B3 B4 B8 B9 B24 C4 Both the work process and the result and its presentation (oral and/or written) will be assessed. The evolution of the students during the work, the management of the information and questions raised, the group work (in the corresponding cases) as well as the integration of the competences of the subject and the reflection on the whole work process will be taken into account.

In terms of content, it will be assessed that the case is coherent with the Occupational Therapy process in a specific context, articulating the specificities of the person/s / population, their occupations and environments, i.e., maintaining the focus on occupational performance. For this purpose, the consistent application of Occupational Therapy practice models will be taken into account: Canadian Occupational Performance Model, Human Occupation Model and the Kawa Model.
Finally, in the presentation (oral and/or written), the argumentation, reflection and defence of the work carried out will be assessed, as well as the capacity for written expression (grammatical and spelling errors will be negatively assessed) and/or oral expression (verbal and non-verbal communication according to the forum).

The evaluation of this methodology will also include the work carried out by the student in the Service-Learning activities.

- Theoretical case study (15 points): worked on in the laboratories in order to have a follow-up with the teachers of the subject.

- Case study of a real case (15 points): consists of the application of the occupational therapy process on the life history of an elderly person close to the student.

Laboratory practice A6 A7 A8 A9 A10 A11 A13 A14 A15 A20 A26 A29 B3 B9 B23 B24 C7 It is important to note that attendance is compulsory, and only one session may be missed with justification. The student must send the teachers of the subject, the proof of the absence. Failure to communicate with the teachers will result in failure of the methodology.

- Attitude and participation (10 points): collaborative attitude (involvement with the group, with the tasks and with the general development of the laboratory); participation: (empathetic, proactive, analytical and constructive interaction); Respect (for the participants of the group, teachers and rules of operation of the laboratory); Responsibility (with oneself and/or with the group, both in the preparation of the work carried out during the laboratory and in the teaching-learning process).

- Roll-playing (10 points): based on the intervention of the theoretical case study and worked on in the laboratories.

- Podcast (10 points): on the role of occupational therapy in different fields of action with the older adults.

Assessment comments

The qualification system will be expressed by numerical qualification in accordance with that established in article 5 of Royal Decree 1125/2003 of 5 September (BOE 18 September), which establishes the European credit system and the qualification system for official university qualifications valid throughout the national territory Qualification system: 0-4.9=Failure 5-6.9=Passed 7-8.9=Notable 9-10=Outstanding 9-10 Honourable Mention (Graciable).

A student who, while enrolled in a subject, does not attend the different assessment activities established for the academic year, will be considered as "Not Presented" (NP). In the absence of specific regulations for each degree, the student will be considered as "No-show": a) when he/she does not complete the continuous assessment process, under the conditions that appear in the teaching guide, or b) when he/she does not take the official assessment period test. The consideration of NP does not consume a call in the total number of calls that the student has per subject.

In general, the assessment of the subjects will be continuous throughout the course, without prejudice to that indicated in the degree's verification reports. The final qualification will be the result of the overall results obtained in all the assessment activities. As a general rule, an assessment activity will be included to be carried out on the dates established in the official academic calendar. This activity may also be established as an overall assessment test of the learning outcomes or, where appropriate, form part of the continuous assessment process. The teaching guides must establish the weighting of the different assessment activities and, where appropriate, of the overall test, within the framework that the centre may establish. 

Punctuality and compulsory attendance at all face-to-face hours of the methodologies established in the subject will be assessed.

In order to pass the subject, the student must actively participate in the proposed methodologies, hand in all the assignments and have passed each of the methodologies that make up the subject. In addition, it will be necessary to have a minimum grade of 2.5 (out of 5) points in the mixed test, and the grades of the other methodologies will only be taken into account for the final grade if the student achieves this score in the mixed test. If this is not the case, the mark for the examination will correspond to the mark obtained in the mixed test. The marks obtained in the other methodologies will be taken into account for the grade in the second opportunity (July), in the case of having passed and passed the mixed exam. 

According to the rule that regulates the study regime for undergraduate students at the University of A Coruña (approved by the Governing Council on 22/05/2012), when a student is recognised as a part-time student, he/she has the right to enjoy a flexible class attendance regime and to request the special academic dispensation established in article 4 (section 5) of this rule, as long as it does not negatively affect the student's evaluation process. To this effect, the Academic Committees of the different centres of the UDC specify the scope of the aforementioned dispensation. 

Therefore, the concession to the request for flexibility will be at the expense of the assessment and decision of the academic committee of the degree of Occupational Therapy, taking into account the methodologies and evaluation criteria of the subjects".

According to the Disciplinary Regulations for students of the University of A Coruña, approved by the Governing Council of 27/02/2023 and modified in article 11.4.b by the Governing Council of 28/06/2023, if plagiarism is detected in the work of students, being considered a serious offence, the qualification in the call will be a fail with a numerical value of 0. 

At the same time, the teacher in charge reserves the possibility of making some changes in the evaluation or in other aspects of the subject, which will be notified to the students with sufficient notice.
