Evaluation Methodology
Assessment is continuous, resulting from the completion of 2 theoretical assignments, with topics previously agreed upon with the teacher (each corresponding to 40% of the final grade). The assessment of the 2nd assignment (30% of its final grade) is based on its oral presentation, which must be carried out in class.
In addition to the assignments, attendance and participation in classes are also considered (20% of the final grade).
Students who obtain a grade equal to or higher than 10 points in continuous assessment are exempt from the exam.
The exam (100%) will also correspond to the assessment of the 2 assignments, with mandatory prior agreement with the teacher (the oral presentation of the 2nd assignment will also be considered as 30% of its final grade).
Any assessment test, written or practical, may, when there are well-founded doubts about the authorship or disadvantages of the elements presented, be submitted to a supplementary assessment, convened by the teacher, specifically to clarify these doubts. Failure to compare the elements in the evaluation, unless duly justified, or failure to provide the necessary clarifications to confirm the authorship/damage of the evaluated elements may lead to a review of the assigned classification, total or partial disregard of elements whose authorship or evidence has not been proven. Classif. of supplementary evaluation prevails.
