Assessment comments
EVALUATION CRITERIA

For a favorable assessment, the student must obtain five point out of ten, according to this dissagregation (equal for both 1st and 2nd opportunities):
- Multiple-choice questions: 2 points.
- Objective practical test: 6 points.
- Course mark: supervised projects 0,5 points; objective/subjective test 1,5 points.

a)First opportunity: at the end of the four-month teaching period, students will have access to assessment as long as they comply with the following condicions:
- Having attended to at least 80% of the lessons of the subject.
- Having scored at least 1 point (out of 2) in the course mark (supervised projects + objective/subjective test.

b)Second opportunity: open to all students who have signed up for the subject, regardless of their percentage of attendance and fulfilment of course mark requirements. The dissagregation will remain as indicated above.

During the development of the theoretical questionnaire no materials of any kind will be allowed beyond pens, while for the realization of the practical part, forms, calculator and drawing materials can be used. The exam is individual. Non-compliance with this requirement will result in expulsion and implementing regulations. Mobile phones, smart watches or any other devices for storage, photography, sharing or accessing information are strictly prohibited during the examination. All these devices must remain switched off and off the table. Taking pictures of the examen, during the examination, will lead to expulsión.

Marks will be announced within the legally established time limits. The day and time for the revision will be indicated on the list of marks. This date will meet the requirements of the Academic Regulation for Assessment, Qualifications and Claims.

CORRECTION CRITERIA
The correction criteria are adapted to those derived from professional reality. As a general rule, misconceptions will be valued according to their severity, and may nullify the exercise. The commission of a numerical error is also relevant, given that the professional practice seeks concrete results. In this regard, it is pointed out that a mistaken sign means an error of 200%.

CONDITIONS FOR PART-TIME MODALITY STUDENTS
Students enrolled in the part-time modality (having proved this upon presentation of the enrollment receipt or the resolution of acceptance of this condition from the study centre)will have access to both opportunities, being exempted from the minimum attendance to lessons and the minimum of the course mark. In these cases, the exam will be the only evaluation element, scoring from 0 to 10 points, being necessary to obtain at least 5 points to pass the subject.
