Assessment
Continuous assessment activities
| Title | Weight | Hours | ECTS | Learning outcomes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Theorical test | 30% | 0 | 0 | 4, 5, 6, 8, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 21 |

The evaluation system of this subject is structured in two clearly differentiated sections:
1. Practical part: The students will carry out the different practices that the teachers will propose in the classroom. This practical part will have a value of 4 points of the final note of the subject. The average mark of these practices will be added to the average obtained from the individual theoretical tests as long as they have been passed in the conditions specified in the following section *.
2. Individual theoretical tests Written exam: written tests that allow to evaluate the knowledge acquired by the student. Students must pass two individual theoretical tests. The value of the same will be of 3 points, each one, with regard to the final note of the asignatura. Being the total value of 5 out of 10 points.
* The student who obtains, at least, a 3.5 out of 10 of the set of the theoretical proofs will be able to add him the note that has obtained of the practical part. To pass the subject it will be necessary to reach and, in accordance with the previous conditions, a 5 out of 10. Students who receive this note may take the resit exam as long as they meet the requirements set forth in the following point.
3. Recovery Exam. People who do not pass the continuous assessment will be entitled to recovery on the day officially set by the School, provided that these students have been previously assessed in a set of activities whose weight is equivalent to a minimum of 2/3 parts of the total grade. . This exam will consist of an evaluation test in which all the contents of the subject will be evaluated. To pass this exam it will be necessary to obtain a 5º. Passing the resit exam will result in a 5 on the student's record. It should be noted that if thestudent has not been evaluated in this set of activities whose weight is equivalent to a minimum of 2/3 of the total grade will be evaluated with a grade of \"Not presented\".
4. Review: At the time of carrying out each evaluation activity, the Teaching Staff will inform the Students of the mechanisms for reviewing the Grades.
5. Single assessment: Students who opt for the single assessment will take a final synthesis test of all the content of the subject, both theoretical and practical. The date for this test will be the same scheduled in the schedule for the last continuous assessment exam. Students who want to take the single assessment must request it within the official period established for it. In the event that you do not do so, you will lose the opportunity for a single evaluation. The same recovery system will be applied as for the continuous evaluation.
6. Evaluation of students in the second call or more: The students who repeat the subject will have to take the scheduled tests and exams and hand in the subject practices on the dates indicated in the classroom or Moodle classroom, as the case may be.
7. Change of date of a test or exam: Students who need to change an assessment date must submit the request by filling in the document found in the Moodle space for EPSI Tutoring. Once the document has been completed, it must be sent to the teaching staff of the subject and to the coordination of the Degree.
8. Use of AI
In this subject, the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies is permitted as an integral part of the assignment. Students must clearly identify which parts have been generated with this technology, specify the tools used, and include a critical reflection on how these have influenced the process and the final result of the activity. Lack of transparency in the use of AI may beconsidered an academic irregularity and may result in a penalty on the assignment grade or the application of the consequences provided in the following section \"Other Considerations.\"
9. Other considerations: In the event that the student performs any irregularity that may lead to a significant variation in the grade of an evaluation act, this evaluation act will be graded with 0, regardless of the disciplinary process that may be instituted. In the event that various irregularities occur in the evaluation acts of the same subject, the final grade for this subject will be0. Likewise, if there is a suspicion of plagiarism, including technological plagiarism, the teaching staff may verify the content of the test by carrying out oral tests, or other types of tests, to verify the originality and authorship of the work.
If there are unforeseen circumstances that prevent the normal development of the subject, the teaching staff may modify both the methodology and the evaluation of the subject.
