Methodologies Competencies Description Qualification
Oral presentation A1 A2 A3 A4 A12 B1 B2 B4 Projects.
This can be done individually or in a group (no more than 3). By giving a student a project and a length of time in order to do it, a teacher can assess how the student organizes time, generates problems, and solves those problems. By doing the project in a group, the teacher can also assess how students interact with others and how they participate in group settings. In order for the project to be a success in terms of assessing the student, clear instructions and deadlines will be given to the students. A summary of the project will have to be submitted to the teacher
who will monitor it and an oral presentation in English will be required. The oral presentation will be scored 50% of the total project marking 		20

Assessment comments

<p>Tasks will be allocated to student sub-groups in the beginning of the course so it is essential that all students interested in taking the course are present at the first meetings. Later on the course will be run mainly on the basis of group work and tutorials. However, classroom attendance will be required for the reporting part. </p>

Students are required to attend the
compulsory sessions, unless they have applied for exemption within the time
period specified by the Academic Commission of the degree, and this exemption
has been granted. This exemption will be valid provided students comply with
the rules on attendance in force in the three universities participating in the
programme, and provided they comply with the assessment systems which are
specified in the teaching guides for each module. Students should be aware,
however, that not attending certain classroom sessions may affect their final
grades.

Students
who have been granted exemption, as specified in the university regulations,
will be assessed according to the criteria applied to the July opportunity.

Students
who do not submit a supervised project, or who fail
to submit at least 50% of the other tasks for assessment, will be graded as
absent from assessment (NP: no presentado).

Students
who do not pass in the first opportunity will be able
to re-sit in July, when they will be required to demonstrate that they have
acquired the skills for each module via two types of assessment: a supervised
project with the same percentage value and characteristics as in the first
opportunity, plus the exercises agreed upon with the lecturer(s) as a
substitute for the other activities of the module.
