Occasional in-person group tutorials are planned to provide support and address student questions. The schedule for these tutorials will be published at the start of the term.

In-person assessment activities are scheduled (Graded Practical Assignments PAUL and PLAB, Course Exam, and/or Retake Exam). The schedule for these assessment activities will be published at the start of the term.

Course progress will be monitored by both students and faculty regarding the completion and submission of the PAUL and PLAB practical assignments.

----------------------------------------

Theory sessions (TE) will be taught with the whole group in the classroom.

At the same time, the theoretical concepts will be reinforced through classroom practice sessions (PAUL) and laboratory practices sessions (PLAB).

Classroom practice sessions (PAUL), technical drawing, descriptive geometry and interpretation of plans, will be made individually in the practice class, with the support and supervision of the professor and in different groups (PAUL11/PAUL12).

The laboratory practices sessions (PLAB), with AutoCAD software support, will be made individually in the computer lab, with the support and supervision of the professor and in different groups (PLAB11/PLAB12/PLAB13).

During the sessions of PAUL and PLAB, guided practices will be carried out that the students will elaborate progressively as they advance in the sessions, with the aim of acquiring experience to overcome successfully, in order to obtain the final qualification of classroom practices (PAUL) and laboratory practices (PLAB). Some of these practices will be evaluable, counting their score for the qualification of each of the parties.

It will inform about any change of procedure and/or programming for reasons of adaptation to possible incidents in the Virtual Campus of the subject. It is understood that this is the usual platform for exchanging information between professors and students.

Practical classroom sessions material (PAUL):

• Plates format DIN A-3 (420x297mm) without frame (8-10 units).
• Pencil and/or mechanical pencil (0,3mm or 0,5mm), hardness 2B, 2H and H; pencil sharpener and eraser.

IMPORTANT NOTICE: The Computer Assisted Design (CAD) course will operate under special arrangements during the 2026–2027 academic year due to modifications to the Bachelor's Degree in Aeronautical Management curriculum, made to align with royal decree RD 822/2021.

The following information prioritizes the operation of the course regarding the information that follows.

Continuous assessment option:

(to be eligible for the continuous assessment option, it is essential to complete and submit the PAUL and PLAB practical assignments on a weekly basis).

• 40% grade of COURSE EXAM
• 30% grade of PAUL (15% first scoring practice + 15% second scoring practice)
• 30% grade of PLAB (30% scoring practice)

Second enrollment option:

(as a recovery of the continuous assestment option).

• 60% grade of RECOVERY EXAM
• 20% grade of PAUL (10% first scoring practice + 10% second scoring practice)
• 20% grade of PLAB (20% scoring practice)

Attendance at PAUL and PLAB scoring tests is mandatory to be able to attend the COURSE EXAM and/or the RECOVERY EXAM, in order to overcome the continuous assestment option and/or the second enrollment option.

Students who have successfully completed any of the components of the assessment activities from previous years (PAUL and PLAB scoring tests, the COURSE EXAM and/or the RECOVERY EXAM) may retain the grade obtained.

----------------------------------------

This subject does not provide for the single assessment system.

a) Scheduled evaluation process and activities.

The global qualification of the subject will be determined according to the following options:

Continuous assessment option:

(obligatory follow-up for first enrollment students).

• 40% grade of COURSE EXAM
• 30% grade of PAUL (15% first scoring practice + 15% second scoring practice)
• 30% grade of PLAB (30% scoring practice)

Second enrollment option:

(for students from the second enrollment or as a recovery of the continuous assestment option).

• 60% grade of RECOVERY EXAM
• 20% grade of PAUL (10% first scoring practice + 10% second scoring practice)
• 20% grade of PLAB (20% scoring practice)

The assessment of classroom practices (PAUL) and laboratory practices (PLAB) will be at the discretion of the professor, depending on their complexity degree.

Attendance at all sessions is mandatory, as well as the performance and presentation of all PAUL and PLAB practices (both scoring and non-scoring).

Attendance at PAUL and PLAB scoring tests is mandatory to be able to attend the COURSE EXAM and/or the RECOVERY EXAM, in order to overcome the continuous assestment option and/or the second enrollment option.

It will be necessary to obtain a minimum score of 4 points (out of 10) in each of the COURSE EXAM and/or RECOVERY EXAM to make the weighting of the grade in the global subject, according to the assesstment options specified above.

In the case of not reaching the minimum mentioned, the final grade of the subject will be the minimum between the grade obtained and 4.5 points.

A final grade of Approved will be obtained in the global of the subject when a minimum score of 5 points (out of 10) is reached in the weighting of the resulting grade in the global of the subject, according to the assesstment options specified above.

A final grade of Suspended will be obtained in the global of the subject when the minimum score required in any of the parts is not reached or when the weighting of the resulting grade in the global of the subject is less than 5 points (out of 10).

b) Evaluation activities programming.

The schedule, time and place of the continuous assessment and second enrollment tests will be published in the Virtual Campus of the subject and will be informed during the first sessions.

c) Recovery process.

First-enrollment students may choose the second enrollment option and take the RECOVERY EXAM, after not having passed the continuous assesstment option, provided they have submitted to a set of activities that represent at least two-thirds of the final grade of the subject and have passed or obtained the minimum score required in classroom practices (PAUL) and laboratory practices (PLAB).

Classroom practices (PAUL) and laboratory practices (PLAB) will not have recovery as they must be done in person and continuously during the course.

The teaching staff reserves the possibility of scheduling, in exceptional situations, an extraordinary recovery test for classroom practices (PAUL) and/or laboratory practices (PLAB), to be assessed according to the specific case of the student.

d) Procedure to review the qualifications.

The procedure for reviewing the qualifications of the continuous assessment and re-evaluation tests will be in person, at the time and place published on the Virtual Campus of the subject, previous communication to the professor, personally or via email.

If the student does not appear in this revision, the pertinent grade will not be reviewed later.

e) Special qualifications.

A grade of Not Evaluable (NA) will be obtained when the students do not attend any of the previously described parts (PAUL, PLAB, COURSE EXAM and/or RECOVERY EXAM).

Granting an Honors Certificate (MH) is the decision of the professor of the subject. Only the studentswhohave obtained a final grade equal or higher than 9 points (out of 10) and up to 5% of the total number of students enrolled may be awarded.

f) Irregularities commited by the students.

The consequences of cheating or committing any irregularity in any of the evaluation activities is reflected in the evaluation regulations in the UAB studies, which specify that:

\"Without prejudice to other disciplinary measures considered appropriate, the irregularities committed by the student that can lead to a variation in the rating of an evaluation act will be qualified with a zero. Therefore, copying, plagiarizing, cheating, copying, etc. In any of the assessment activities, it will imply suspending it with a zero. Assessment activities qualified in this way and by this procedure will not be recoverable. If it is necessary to pass any of these assessment activities to pass the subject, this subject will be suspended directly, without an opportunity to recover it in the same academic year. \"

The score obtained in case of irregularities by the student will be 0 points (out of 10) in that part of the subject (PAUL, PLAB, COURSE EXAM and/or RECOVERY EXAM).

g) Evaluation of second and subsequent enrollment students.

Students enrolled in second and subsequent enrollments who have not passed any part of the subject of previous calls (PAUL and/or PLAB) must take the continuous assessment option, specified above.

Students enrolled in second and subsequent enrollments who have passed any part of the subject of previous calls (PAUL and/or PLAB), may perform a validation of the qualification of each of the parties by means of a Validation Test for each of them.

The qualification of the corresponding part (PAUL and/or PLAB) will be the one obtained in this test.

To be eligible for this Validation Test, interested students must communicate their interest to the professor, personally or via email, within a maximum of 14 calendar days from the start of the first teaching session.
