A) Lectures

During the lectures, activities will be carried out to promote reflection and debate.

B) Seminars

Students will have to prepare a paper or perform another activity to prepare for the seminar. During the seminar, students will have the opportunity to listen to different opinions of the rest of the classmates and professors, resolve doubts, discuss the main ideas and consequently, increase their learning about juvenile delinquency. The topic of the seminars will be posted on the virtual campus at the beginning of the course.

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.

Continuous Assessment

The subject's assessment system is continuous assessment, which is detailed below:

Conditions for being assessed and passing the subject

Students will only be able to pass the subject if they attend a minimum of 80% of the lectures and seminars.

Absences can only be justified for reasons of serious illness or other reasons of force majeure duly justified and authorized by the teaching staff.

To pass the subject, a minimum average of 5 must be obtained in the exams, and the final average for the subject must reach 5.

Students will be assessed if they have carried out a set of activities whose weight is equivalent to a minimum of 2/3 of the total grade for the subject. If the value of the activities carried out does not reach this threshold, the subject teacher may consider the student as \"non-assessable\".

Assessment items

a) Seminar work (50%).

i) Individual presentation (10%).

ii) Individual essays (40%).

b) Two exams (50% in total).

Retakes

In the event of not passing the exams, they may be retaken.

Other important aspects of the assessment

No late assignments will be accepted; students will receive a 0 for that assignment without the possibility of recovery.

Fraudulent conduct

Students who copy or attempt to copy in an exam will receive a 0 for the subject and will lose the right to reassessment. A student who presents an assignment in which there are signs of plagiarism or who cannot justify the arguments for their assignment will receive a 0 and will receive a warning. In the event of a repeat of conduct, the student will fail the subject (0) and will lose the rightto recover.

Punctuality and behavior in the classroom

Classes begin and end on time. Entry to the classroom after its beginning or exit before its end is not permitted, except with reasonable justification.

All students are required to have a respectful attitude towards the rest of the students. No offensive or discriminatory behavior (due to birth, race, sex, religion, opinion, or any other personal or social circumstance) will be tolerated during classes.

Restricted use of IA

For this course, the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies is not permitted for continuous assessment activities or seminar essays. If AI is permitted for a specific activity, this will be indicated by the lecturer. In such cases, the use of AI technologies must be clearly identified, and a critical reflection on how they influenced the process and final outcome of the activity must be included. Lack of transparency regarding the use of AI in an assessable activity will be considered academic dishonesty and may result in a partial or full penalty on the activity grade, or more severe sanctions in serious cases.

Review of grades

The review of the final grade follows the same procedure for both continuous and single assessment.

Single Assessment

In this case, students who meet the requirements established in the UAB regulations will be assessed based on a final test, in which the student must demonstrate that they have acquired the set of skills of the subject:

1. Risk assessment in juvenile delinquency. The student must solve an exercise aimed at assessing the risk of a case using the SAVRY Model. - 60 min. - 20%

2. Oral presentation:students must reflectand answer the teacher's questions on a set of proposed topics (mandatory essays). - 20 min. - 20%

3. Final synthesis exam: students must answer the questions posed in the final exam of the subject (theoretical lessons). - 90 min. - 60%. To prepare this part, it is highly recommended to read the following handbook: Cardenal-Montraveta, S. (2022). La responsabilidad penal de los menores. Tirant lo Blanch

In the event of not passing the first single assessment, students will have the right to retake.
