| Workshop | A12 A17 A18 A63 B1 B2 B3 B4 B5 B6 B9 B11 C1 C3 C4 C5 C6 C7 C8 | The WORKSHOP qualification is already established in the Study Plan itself. Those students who have passed WORKSHOP 8 in previous courses must communicate this situation reliably (in writing) to the teacher, in order to update the corresponding grades. This is so since the currently existing qualification procedure does not allow immediate and easy access to these specific situations. As a course practice, they will carry out the tasks that are indicated by the teacher, normally associated with said workshop that has already been passed. This will be the basis of the qualification of the practical part of the subject. On the other hand, in accordance with the provisions of the current Study Plan, the workshop is subject to a process of continuous evaluation since it is also an interdisciplinary work between several subjects. It makes no sense if there is no continuous monitoring. The revisions and deliveries that are made throughout the course are those that also allow guaranteeing the authorship of the work and contrasting its evolution. For this reason, monitoring is required throughout the course and its delivery on the dates specified for it, not admitting the substitution of this monitoring by its direct delivery, either in the first or second opportunity. |

| Problem solving | A12 A17 A18 A63 B1 B2 B3 B4 B5 B6 B9 B11 C1 C3 C4 C5 C6 C7 C8 | The overall qualification of the subject will be based on Continuous Assessment methods, not being admitted waivers of assistance except under the conditions established by the University itself. This assumes that the attendance and attitude shown during the various teaching activities planned is controlled and that a part of the grade will be obtained from this activity and from the work carried out by the student throughout the semester. This condition is imposed by the TALLER's own philosophy included in the Center's Study Plan, thus being alien to the subject itself. This daily work must be completed with the realization of theoretical - practical tests that allow to verify the degree of assimilation, by the student, of the conceptual and procedural contents of the subject. -Assistance. Given that a continuous assessment is chosen, attendance of more than 80% is mandatory in order to be qualified in this subject. Attendance is understood as active attendance, this is not only the mere physical presence, but also the interest and participation in the various face-to-face sessions. Class practices: with a minimum level of development, with the assistance conditions indicated above. Practices developed by the student independently are included in this section. Special class practices: Specific practices as a summary of each of the parts of the subject, carried out individually by the student and delivered during said class. They are announced in advance in a timely manner and can have both theoretical and practical content. These practices have a liberatory nature of the corresponding subject and themselves replace the exams, with the qualifications indicated in this guide. To carry it out, the use of an A3 format handwritten form (1 sheet on both sides), a calculator, the corresponding legal regulations and the documentation that, in each case, may be supplied for such purposes, will be allowed. In this aspect, what is stated in the exams section governs. All attendance controls, questionnaires, practices and, in general, the aforementioned course activities, will only be computed for those students who are duly registered and who appear on the official lists at the time they are carried out. That is, the possibility is not contemplated, for example, that a student attends the course as a "listener" while not "making official" their enrollment: all the activities and grades obtained before they appear in the official lists will not be taken into account. (The teachers will not manually expand any type of student list, only official lists will be used). In the specific case of non-compliance with the conditions of attendance or delivery of a minimum number of short practices, it is not possible to pass the course in parts, being necessary to take the 1st and 2nd opportunity exam with the entire course material. This applies to part-time enrollment students. The indicative percentages indicated are applicable to the follow-up of the course. Logically, they are not applicable to exams, which must be passed independently. The rest of grades are used to establish the final grade for students who pass this item. |

| Mixed objective/subjective test | A12 A17 A18 A63 B1 B2 B3 B4 B5 B6 B9 B11 C1 C3 C4 C5 C6 C7 C8 | To correct the results obtained in the course, the student may take the so-called 1st and 2nd chance official exams but subject to the conditions indicated. In this case, the percentages indicated above are: -Exam: 60% -Course practices: 10% -Workshop: 30% Being necessary to obtain a PASS in the exam so that the previous percentages are applied. The exam grade is in accordance with the UDC grading standards (grade 0-10), applied to the part in which the student has not passed. In the specific case of presentation for exam with a part not passed, the grade obtained will be a condition of passing that part, making the corresponding average with the rest of the course grade. There is no provision for “saving” grades from one course to the next. In other words, a student who does not pass the subject on the 2nd opportunity, even if only has a pending part, the following year must follow up on the entirety of it, with the exception of WORKSHOP 8, which has specific grading standards already contemplated in The study plan These exams will be governed by the so-called "Regulations for the Conduct and Review of exams and assignments" of the UDC that is in force at all times. Regardless of the specific and particular instructions for each exam, in addition to its overall qualification, a partial pass is required from each of the parties, and these are not directly compensable for each other. This is because the subject has 3 clearly differentiated parts. For example, a student with an excellent grade in Factory and Wood, but with very serious deficiencies in Prestressed Concrete, is not admissible. Regardless of what is legally indicated on possible teacher fraud, any of the following situations will be considered as serious disciplinary offenses and, consequently, the automatic qualification of SUSPENSION (0): -Impersonation of a partner in attendance checks or activities -this fault extends to both the impersonating student and the impersonating student. -Fraudulent performance of practices and controls by a person other than the signing student. -Copy of practices. -Copy of exams. -Equivalent situations -Plagiarism |

| Supervised projects | A12 A17 A18 A63 B1 B2 B3 B4 B5 B6 B9 B11 C1 C3 C4 C5 C6 C7 C8 | Grade obtained in the various activities carried out throughout the course by the student, which demonstrates its follow-up. The practical activities make sense if their development takes place throughout the course, so there is a single delivery at the end of the course. In principle, the possibility of delivering these activities once the course is finished is not considered (2nd opportunity or advanced opportunity) This grade percentage is only applicable to students who have passed the first item. |

In the special case of Advance Call, the evaluation criteria indicated above are maintained with the exception that only the practices carried out in the immediately preceding year are counted. Example of this, for the Advance of December 2000, the qualifications of the practices obtained in the 1999-2000 academic year are taken into account. For said call, no type of extension of the practical activities indicated above is allowed. In the event that the student had not developed these practical activities, the maximum mark for said exam would be 60% of the total. In this exam, a 5 out of a maximum grade of 10 is considered a Pass mark. If the particular situations of course development so advise, the above percentages and criteria may undergo adjustments. If this happens, it will be announced in a timely manner and published on the subject's Moodle platform. Students with recognition of part-time dedication and academic exemption from attendance: the 80% attendance criterion is eliminated but the rest of the weekly and global deliveries and the corresponding corrections are maintained to guarantee their authorship. |
