Assessment

Continous Assessment Activities

The assessment of the Psycho-pedagogical and Social Training module is planned in a continuous way, with an interdisciplinary and integrated perspective based on the competences and learning outcomes of the different units of the module, and with a strong connection with the internship schools, (slow track students will have an adaptation of the assessment evidences). Students will have to carry out four assessment evidences throughout the course, which are described below:

Evidence 1 (E1): description of the internship school. Short written document (5-8 pages) reflecting the social context and the main organizational and educational project characteristics of the school. An argued challenge proposal will be added in relation to the analysis of the school, which will be developed in Evidence 2.

Evidence 2 (E2): analysis of a challenge identified at the internship school. Presentation with interactive audiovisual support (10-15 minutes) of the analysis of the challenge with theoretical basis and contributions of proposals for action. A guideline will be provided for co-evaluation.

Evidence 3 (E3): critical incident analysis. Performance of a dramatization in the classroom based on a situation related to the chosen challenge (10-15 minutes). A guide for the performance and an evaluation guideline will be provided.

Evidence 4 (E4): concluding reflection. Production of a video (5-7 minutes) with a critical reflection, based on the learning achieved in the module, on basic and post-compulsory education and on teacher identity. An indicative guide and an evaluation rubric will be provided.

Evidence 2 and 3 will be completed in groups of up to 4 people, but the grade will be individual. The composition of the working group may vary for each evidence. Evidences 1 and 4 are individual.

The weight of each evidence and the calendar are shown in the following table:

* The time allocated is indicative; it only includes the preparation of evidence, not the autonomous learning activities for preparation.

The master's course is face-to-face, and class attendance is compulsory, with a minimum of 80% (for each block) required to follow the continous assesment and keep up with the programme.

  Assignments must be handed in in the module's moodle classroom. Assignments submitted incorrectly, which do not include the name of the authors or which are submitted after the deadline will not be accepted. Students are responsible for ensuring that the format of the files is compatible with the delivery in the moodle classroom. Failure to submit evidence will be marked as Not Assessable.

The marks of the evaluation activities will be given at the latest 20 working days after the delivery. In order to obtain an average, it is necessary to obtain a minimum of 5 in each evaluation evidence.

Written assignments will be submitted in Catalan (reasoned exceptions will be assessed by the teaching team).

To successfully pass this subject, students must demonstrate a solid level of general communicative competence, both orally and in writing, as well as a proficient command of the Catalan language. Accordingly, all activities—whether individual or group-based—will be assessed with particular attention to linguistic accuracy, written expression, and formal presentation. Students are expected to express themselves fluently and correctly and to exhibit a high level of comprehension of academic texts. Any activity may be returned (unassessed) or marked as failed if the teacher deems that it does not meet these standards.

Students who have failed some of the evidences with a minimum grade of 3.5 will be able to take a recovery that will consist of a work or test that will be scheduled with a minimum margin of two weeks after the communication of the failure. The recovery will be assessed as pass (numerical grade 5) or fail (which means failing the module).

It will be necessary to show an attitude compatible with theteaching profession, such as commitment and responsibility withthe work, respect, participation, active listening, cooperation, empathy, kindness, punctuality, non-judgement, argumentation, etc. It is also essential to make appropriate use of electronic devices (mobile phones, computers, touch tablets, etc.) in the classroom. These devices may ONLY be used for activities related to the subject.

Single assessment. Students who take this type of assessment will have to present the four pieces of evidence together, all of them individually. In the case of the second evidence, the format will be a video, and in the case of the third evidence, it will consist of a written work based on the analysis of a video. The weighting of each evidence is the same as in the continuous assessment. The deadline for submission of the four pieces of evidence is 30 April 2025. In this modality, the attendance is mandatory. The same recovery system will be applied as for the continuous assessment. The recovery date for single assessment students will be 6 June 2025.

Copying or plagiarism is a serious offense and may result in failing the course. A piece of work is considered plagiarized if it reproduces all or part of another student’s work or presents a portion of an author’s text as one’s own without citing the source. The Moodle classroom includes the URKUND tool to detect similarity percentages in submitted documents. It is recommended to follow APA 7th edition guidelines.

For this course, the use of AI technologies is permitted exclusively for bibliographic or information searches, text correction or translation, image generation, and other specifically defined situations. It is not allowed for content generation beyond images, i.e., generating text or speech for any task. Students must clearly identify which parts were generated using AI, specify the tools used, and include a critical reflection on how these influenced the process and final outcome. Lack of transparencyin AI use will be considered academic dishonesty and may result in partial or total penalties in the assessment grade, or more serious sanctions in severe cases. Improper use will result in a fail.
