| Problem solving | A19 B2 C1 | This task is intended for one single content of the subject (Topic 3). It is intended to allow students to combine other methodologies, such as problem solving, guided practice (guided worksheets), etc. However, bearing in mind that with the eres the student develops purely practical tasks on this subject with the support and supervision of the teaching staff. All this will only be carried out when topic 3 is explained. IT IS MANDATORY FOR STUDENTS HAVE REVIEWED THE TEACHERS' NOTES. The teachers will present the notes of this topic (through the Virtual Campus); in the lectures they will have an explanation of these notes with problem solutions; in the interactive classes they will present guided practices for the student to carry out. IT IS MANDATORY FOR STUDENTS HAVE REVIEWED THE TEACHERS' NOTES. Students must carry out all the proposed practices and incorporate them into a single document, in the form of a dossier, which they will hand in to the teachers by the established deadline, under the name of "Data analysis". |

| Mixed objective/subjective test | A5 A6 A13 A19 A21 B1 B2 B5 B6 C1 C3 C4 C6 C8 | The exam of the 1st and 2nd opprtunities (June and July) is what refers to the evaluation of this methodology and consists of two parts: 1-TECHNIQUES PART: it will consist of a number of open response items, or short answer or true and false but justifying (the type of questions will be determined by the teaching staff). This part is passed when a score of 5 out of 10 points is reached, which is the maximum score that can be reached here (no marks will be kept for any part, in any exam session, if you fail). 2-ANALYSIS PART: it consists of several statistical problems or short answer questions or true/false questions (the teacher will decide the type of questions). This part is passed when a score of 5 out of 10 points is reached, which is the maximum score that can be reached here. In both parts (Techniques part and Analysis part) incorrectly answered questions will be deducted. Before the end of the teaching period, teachers may take a mock test during the class timetable of the subject. Attendance at this mock test is not compulsory. EXPLANATORY NOTES: The exam must be passed in order to be taken into account for continuous assessment. In order to pass the exam, it is essential that both of the following requirements are met: (a) 5 points or more are achieved in the mixed test; (b) at least half of the value of each of the parts (technical part and analysis part) must be reached. If any of the parts is failed (the minimum passing score is not reached) or if the continuous assessment is not passed (doseres), the student must take the next exam with everything. NO PARTS OF ANY EXAM FROM ONE EXAM SESSION WILL BE KEPT FOR ANOTHER OR OTHER EXAM SESSIONS. The dates of the exams are set by the Faculty Board, therefore, they do not move.

| Case study | A6 A13 A21 C1 | This task is aimed at the contents of the subject (Topic 1 and 2). It is intended to enable students to combine other methodologies such as problem solving, guided practice (guided worksheets), etc. But bearing in mind that with it the students develop purely practical tasks on this subject with the support and supervision of the teachers. All this will only take place when topic 1 and 2 are explained. The teachers will present the students with the notes of this subject (through the Virtual Campus); in the lectures they will explain with cases notes; in the interactive classes, the teachers will present guided practices (guided worksheets) for the students to carry out. IT IS MANDATORY FOR STUDENTS HAVE REVIEWED THE TEACHERS' NOTES. Students must carry out all the proposed practices and include them in a single document, in the form of a dossier, which they will hand in to the teacher by the established deadline, under the name "Data collection techniques". |

| Assessment comments | |||
|
First of all, evaluation of the subject (exposed in the section of the teaching guide, called "Step 7: Evaluation") shall be regulated by the following: a) STUDENTS WHO ATTEND THE CLASS (or students with academic dispensation) (face-to-face students) are considered to attend 80%, this is equivalent to not having more than 3 unexcused absences. Medical absences are excused (with a correctly covered excuse from a registered doctor) and absences due to work (with a correctly covered excuse in the work where it is justified that the student is working during class hours) or any other absence, always with the approved documentation. The evaluation of these students takes into account the following: 1-The mixed test; 2-The case study and 3-Problem solving. All ATTENDING OR PRESENT students must pass the continuous assessment (dossiers) in order to be able to take the mixed test under the conditions explained for this group of students. The continuous assessment is equivalent to 50% of the final mark of the subject (it is necessary to reach the minimum of 25% to consider that this part has been passed). Likewise, it is essential to achieve a minimum of 25% out of 50% in the mixed test to consider this assessment passed (taking into account the need to reach a minimum in each part, techniques and analysis, as specified in the corresponding section in the teaching guide). b) STUDENTS WHO DO NOT ALWAYS ATTEND CLASSES (non-attendance students) are considered to be absent when they miss more than 80%, i.e. they have more than three unexcused absences, or they have more than two absences in one of the parts of the subject (techniques for collecting and/or analysing information). Medical absences are excused (with a correctly covered excuse from a registered doctor) and absences due to work (with a correctly covered excuse in the work where it is justified that the student is working during class hours). These students will sit the 1st and 2nd exams. It is recommended that the students carry out the two assignments of the subject ("Data collection techniques" and "Data analysis") independently, as these will be assessed in the final exam of the subject (50%), together with the theoretical contents of the mixed exam (50%). |
