Evaluation Methodology
The U.C. assessment results from attendance and constructive participation in classes (which are worth 10% of the final grade) and the completion of 2 theoretical works of critical analysis of content taught at U.C., previously agreed and approved by the teacher. The 1st work is a critical comment (worth 30% of the U.C. final grade) and the 2nd work is an in-depth theoretical investigation of one of the topics studied, previously agreed with the teacher (worth 60% of the U.C. final grade). Students who, in the sum of these 3 items, have an assessment equal to or greater than 10 points will be exempt from the exam.
Assessment during exam time involves the delivery of the 2 works mentioned (which are worth 90% of the final grade), relating to content taught at the U.C., also with the prior agreement of the themes to be developed, by the teacher and the participation in classes (which is worth 10% of the final grade).
