The teaching methodology incorporates three types of activity:

(1) Theoretical sessions: where spaces for debate and theoretical and methodological reflection will be promoted.

(2) Classroom practices: where key terms at the beginning of each thematic block will be discussed in plenary. The preparation of museum labels, being one of the evaluation activities, will be discussed as well.

(3) Seminars: two seminars will be delivered by experts in gender studies applied to the ancient world to promote first-hand knowledge of experts and a plurality of voices. In addition, students will also be encouraged to watch other lectures available online and open access.

Recording and dissemination of sessions

The sessions and their contents are protected by intellectual property and data protection regulations. Recording, reproducing, or sharing classes or participants' contributions is not permitted without prior authorization. Any recording must be expressly authorized.

Annotation: within the schedule set by the centre or degree programme, 15 minutes of one class will be reserved for students to evaluate their lecturers and their courses or modules through questionnaires.

The continuous evaluation of the subject is articulated from the following evaluation activities:

● Readings seminar (10% of the final grade)

● Test: readings + basic concepts(15% of the final grade)

● Museum label with gender perspective (10% of the final grade)

● Essay - primary/secondary sources (25% of the final grade)

● Exam (40% of the final grade)

For the label, these indications on how to cite and prepare the bibliography must be taken into account: https://www.uab.cat/web/estudia-iinvestiga/com-citar-i-elaborar-la-bibliografia-1345708785665.html

After the publication of the qualifications of each one of the activities, a calendar of revision of the qualifications will be established for the students. The only recoverable evaluation activities are the essay and the exam. To pass the course, the exam and essay must obtain a minimum grade of 4 or higher. Furthermore, to be eligible for the resit, a student must have been assessed on a set of activities with a combined weighting of at least two-thirds. Students will obtain a Not assessed/Not submitted course grade, and won't be able to resubmit the exam or the essay for recovery, if the minimum grade for the continuous assessment as a whole is 3.5 or lower. Finally, a student will receive a grade of “Not Assessed” if they have not submitted more than 30% of the assessment activities.

Assessment schedule

Assessment dates can’t be changed unless there’s an exceptional and well-justified reason. If a student has a documented chronic or acute illness, they can request to postpone the assessment, if it fits within the academic calendar. These requests must be submitted at least seven days in advance and include the required documentation. If the reason is an unexpected situation considered force majeure, the regulations allow the request to be submitted after the scheduled date, provided the documentation is delivered within three working days. This includes situations such as the birth or adoption of a child, or the death of a partner or a close relative (up to second degree). In cases of illness or other circumstances, the documentation must clearly show that the student was not in a condition to take the assessment at the scheduled time. Teaching staff may also use their discretion to consider other circumstances not explicitly listed above.

Moreover, in the event of unforeseen and justified circumstances, if it becomes necessary to modify the assessment procedure described in the teaching guide and/or the date published in the assessment calendar, the teacher will discuss the proposed modification with the affected class. This will be communicated via the course's Virtual Campus as far in advance as possible.

Single assessment

Students who take the single assessment will have to carry out the following assessment activities, which will have this weighting:

● Essay - primary/secondary sources (40% of the final grade)

● Museum label with gender perspective (10% of the final grade)

● Exam (50% of the final grade)

The same recovery system will be applied as for the continuous evaluation. Therefore, only the essay and the exam will be recoverable.

Choosing the single assessment exempt the student from attending classes.

Plagiarism

In the event of a student committing any irregularity that may lead to a significant variationin the grade awarded to an assessment activity, the student will be given a zero for this activity, regardless of any disciplinary process that may take place. In the event of several irregularities in assessment activities of the same subject, the student will be given a zero as the final grade for this subject.

Artificial Intelligence (AI)

This subject allows the use of AI technologies exclusively for support tasks such as the preparation of the museum label and the reading seminar. For the museum label, the student must clearly (i) identify which parts have been generated using AI technology; (ii) specify the tools used; and (iii) include a critical reflection on how these have influenced the process and final outcome of the activity. Lack of transparency regarding the use of AI in the assessed activity will be considered academic dishonesty; the corresponding grade may be lowered, or the work may even be awarded a zero. In cases of greater infringement, more serious action may be taken.

Erasmus and Exchange Students

Erasmus students who need to leave before the scheduled assessment dates must provide an official document from their home university, addressed to the Degree Exchange Coordinator, confirming a calendar conflict (an overlap with academic activities at their home institution). Furthermore, Erasmus and exchange students who request to advance an exam must present a document from their home university justifying their request.
