Assessment criteria for students that attend the lessons regularly

In order to pass the course in the June opportunity, students must attend at least 80% of the face-to-face lessons. If they do not, they will have to go straight to the July opportunity.

Their assessment will follow the following assessment criteria and tools:

Assessment criteria: 

- Verification of compliance with the set objectives 

- Assimilation of theoretical and practical content. 

-Assessment of the work carried out during the course, both collaborative and individual works.

Assessment tools: 

Mixed test: - I.1. Use of English. 1 point.- I.2. Didactics of the FL. 3 points.- I.3. Comprehension and written expression. 1 point.
