Assessment criteria
In order to pass this course, both in the first and the second opportunity, it will be necessary to obtain a minimum score of 4 points out of 10 in the mixed objective/subjective test and the supervised project. If this requirement is not met, the final qualification will be "Fail", even when the average of all the activities that are part of the assessment will give a grade equal to or greater than 5 points out of 10. If a student who has released or passed a part of the course (e.g., mid-term exam) does not manage to pass the course as a whole on the official dates of the exams of the first and second opportunity, his/her final grade will be "Fail". In the following academic year, these students might keep the grade of those tests that they have passed (as long as the grade obtained was equal to or greater than 5 points out of 10), if they wish, and as long as they inform the instructors of the course of their decision in the first two weeks of classes. This condition will only apply in the following academic year; from there onwards, the grades will not be kept.
If there are students who want to take the early December call (Art. 19 "Standards for evaluation, review and claim of qualifications for undergraduate and master's degree studies"), given that this course is annual, those students will only have to take the mixed objective/subjective test (70% of the grade) and the supervised project (30% of the grade). The supervised project must be done individually. In order to pass the course, a final grade equal to or greater than 5 points out of 10 must be obtained, as long as the students have obtained a score equal to or greater than 4 points out of 10 in each of the methodologies subjected to assessment.
The students who do not attend the final exam that will take place on the date established in the faculty's official exam calendar will be graded as "No presentado" (i.e., no grade). This criterion will apply both in the first and in the second assessment opportunity, as well as in the early December call.
The students with recognition of part-time dedication and academic exemption waiver must inform the instructors of the course at the beginning of the academic year, in order to establish a plan and calendar of activities. The assessment system will be the following one: mixed objective/subjective test (60%), supervised projects (20%), and case study (20%). The supervised project must be done in group.
Fraudulent behavior in any of the methodologies subject to assessment will result in the grade of "Fail (0)" in the final assessment. It is forbidden to access the examination room with any device allowing for data transmission and/or warehousing (e.g., mobile phones, smart watches...) when any of the assessment test is taking place. |
