Methodologies Competencies Description Qualification
Laboratory practice A4 A10 A17 A26 A28 A29 A30 A31 B1 B2 B3 B4 B5 B6 B7 B8 B9 B11 The laboratory practices are mandatory; at their end, there will be a test on the Moodle platform on the content addressed. The grade obtained in this test will represent 14% of the final grade. In addition, as in the case of the seminars, the grade obtained in this test will remain unchanged for the computation of the final grade in the case of the students who have to attend the second opportunity (July). 14
Seminar A18 A19 A21 A28 A29 B1 B2 B3 B5 B7 B8 B9 B11 The tasks performed during the seminars and/or the associated short tests will be evaluated. The grade obtained will represent 16% of the final grade. Students who do not attend the seminars and, therefore, do not perform the associated tasks/short tests, will obtain a grade of 0 points in the activity scheduled that day. The grade obtained in the seminars will remain unchanged for the computation of the final grade in the case of the students who have to attend the second opportunity (July). 16
Objective test A1 A18 A29 B1 B3 B4 B8 B9 This is a test with different types of questions on the main aspects/contents of the theoretical program taught in the guest lectures. The grade obtained will represent 55% of the final grade (maximum 5.5 points out of 10; however, it is necessary to obtain a minimum of 4 points out of 10 in this test to pass the subject). Alternatively, students will have the option of taking 3 partial objective tests throughout the course (as in the case of evaluation by means of a single test, students must obtain a minimum of 4 points out of 10 in each of the partial tests in order to pass the course). 55
Supervised projects B1 B3 B4 B5 B6 B7 B8 B9 This work, of optional character, will be evaluated according to the depth of the content, the presentation and clarity of the organization, the use of a language proper of the disciplinary context and the quality of the bibliographic sources used. The grade obtained will represent 15% of the final grade. The grade obtained in the supervised project will remain unchanged for the computation of the final grade in the case of the students who have to attend the second opportunity (July). 15
 
Assessment comments

For the evaluation of the subject, the knowledge of the theoretical program and the laboratory practices will be taken into account, as well as the supervised project and the associated activities and/or short tests carried out in the context of the seminars. The knowledge acquired, the comprehension and synthesis capacity, the expository clarity and the acquired skills will be evaluated. In order to pass the subject, the stipulated evaluation criteria must be met and a minimum score of 5.0 points must be obtained.

For the final grades of both opportunities, students who do not attend the objective tests on the official dates will be considered NOT PRESENT.

Students who attend the objective tests but do not reach the overall score of 5.0 points or have a grade in the objective test lower than 4.0 points out of 10 (regardless of the grade for seminars, laboratory practicals and supervised project) will be considered SUSPENDED. In the case that the total sum of the grades is equal or higher than 5.0 points but the partial of theoretical contents (objective test) does not exceed the minimum grade required, the final numerical grade will be the one achieved in the aforementioned test of theoretical contents.

Those students who opt for continuous evaluation will need to achieve a minimum of 4.0 points in each and every one of the partial tests. Students who do not achieve this score in any of the tests will be automatically excluded from this evaluation system and must do the final objective test of the whole subject.

Repeating students who have passed the laboratory practices in the three immediately previous years may keep the grade of these or, if they wish, improve it.

Students with recognition of part-time dedication and academic dispensation of exemption from attendance may request the necessary calendar changes to ensure the possibility of attending any of the evaluable activities scheduled in the subject.

In the case of fraudulent performance of tests or evaluation activities, once verified, the UDC regulations in force in this regard will be applied.

Students who request to take the advanced call in December will be governed by what is indicated in the teaching guide of the previous academic year.
