Evaluation Methodology
Integrated Assessment Components and Their Weighting in Continuous and Final Assessment:
Theoretical Component (50%):
1.Written Work (25%)
2. Technical Sheet and Worksheet (25%)
Laboratory Practice Component (50%):
3. Performance (35%)
4. Attendance/participation (15%)
Complementary information:
-The evaluation results from the weighting of the evaluation items (1, 2, 3 and 4), with the student having to obtain at least 10 values for each component to obtain approval;
-Students who have an average equal to or greater than 10 are exempt from the exam;
-Students who obtain at least 10 values in the practical laboratory component (items 3 and 4) will be admitted to the exam;
-Students who do not obtain at least 10 marks in the practical laboratory component (items 3 and 4) will be excluded from the exam;
-Eventual improvements will be made only to the Theoretical Component (items 1 and 2) keeping in the final weighting the evaluation obtained in the laboratory practical component (items 3 and 4).
