The management of the teaching of the subject will be done through the Campus Virtual (http://cv.uab.cat/),which will serve as a management tool for the work teams, make the corresponding deliveries, view grades, communicate with teachers, etc.

The project

The course will follow a teaching learning methodology called Project Based Learning (PBL). The ABP methodology aims to empower and motivate the student in their learning. Groups of between 5 and 6 students will be formed who will be tasked with carrying out a set of projects (of medium size) throughout the semester. There will be weekly monitoring and both group and individual tutoring of the students.

The projects are set by the teaching staff so that they meet the following conditions: be as real as possible; be treatable using elementary tools; not have a standard solution algorithm associated with it.

On the other hand, it is essential to understand that it is not about finding an algorithm that works in 100 x 100 of the cases - often there is no such thing - but simply about \"giving a reasonable solution proposal\".

Projects must develop each team with the maximum possible autonomy. Each team will be assigned a tutor who will follow the evolution but in principle will refrain from imposing their ideas. On the other hand, the student must be clear that it is not a question of looking for the 'solution' of the problem in other places, but of making an original contribution. This does not mean that you have to give up the information that may exist in the bibliography or on the Internet; but when it is used, the teacher must be informed and explain it in memory.

The realization of the project must end in a program and a final report. In addition to delivering it in written form,the results of this report can be exposed in oral presentation. Both, written memory and oral presentation, should be directed mainly to the entity, surely hypothetical, that would have proposed the problem. As a general rule, technicalities will be relegated to specific sections of the written report.

In the oral presentations of the projects, the entire class is expected to attend, and that they intervene through questions and observations.

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.

Given that most of the work revolves around a set of projects that are developed throughout the course, the evaluation is continuous, and does not provide for the single evaluation system.

Evaluation Methodology

At the end of each project, students will make an oral presentation of the project and will deliver a report of the work carried out. Both will be evaluated by the teachers of the subject, whether or not they are the tutors. The evaluation of each project will have a group (70%) and an individual (40%) part.

Group Mark (70%). The group grade will be obtained from the assessment of the report of each project and the code delivered. The degree of technical difficulty, reproducible experimental design, analysis of metrics and interpretation of results will be assessed. The report must include a section specifying the contribution of each member of the group and what use has been made of AI.

For each project, the use of specific methodologies may be requested that constitute basic knowledge and skills that the student must have acquired in the resolution of the proposed problem. The code must allow you to execute a use case and can be used to verify that the students have correctly developed the project,

Individual Mark (30%). Continuous individual evaluation based on class monitoring, contribution to the project and answers to the teacher's questions about the project. These questions will be asked either in a small oral or written session.

Marks

Each project will have a grade that will be calculated as follows:

Project Grade = 0.7 * Group Grade + 0.3 * Individual Grade

The final grade will come from the weighted average of the grades of the projects carried out. The weighting will be the same for all projects

To pass the subject, all the following requirements must be met:

1. The final grade must be greater than or equal to 5
2. have delivered all the projects.
3. The grade for all projects must be greater than or equal to 4

To distinguish between 'fail' and 'not presented', a deadline is set for students to withdraw from the assessment, in which case they will appear as 'not presented'. To unsubscribe, it will be necessary to notify the teacher, in writing or by email, and obtain an acknowledgment of receipt.

Recovery:

In the event that any of the projects has a grade of less than 4, it may be resubmitted on the day that is set as a retake exam in the schedules published by the coordination on the school's website

Honors: Awarding an honors grade is the decision of the teaching staff responsible for the subject. UAB regulations indicate that MH can only be awarded to students who have obtained a final grade equal to or greater than 9.00 and their number cannot exceed 5% of the total number of students enrolled.

In the event that the number of students with a grade greater than or equal to 9 is more than 5% of the total enrolled, the criteria to be applied in the order listed below will be the following:

1. Those with the highest Individual Grade are prioritized.
2. Priority is given to those with the highest Companys Co-evaluation Grade.
3. Priority is given to those with the highest Class Co-assessment Grade.

Grades review procedure

Students will have the right to review the grades published in the place and on the days indicated.

Irregularities on the part of the student, copying and plagiarism

Without prejudice to other disciplinary measures deemed appropriate, and in accordance with current academic regulations, irregularities committed by a student that may lead to a change in grade will be graded with a zero (0). For example, plagiarism, copying, letting copy. An assessment activity will involve failing that assessment activity with a zero (0). Assessment activities graded in this way and for this reason will not be recoverable. If it is necessary to pass any of these evaluation activities to pass the subject, this subject will be suspended directly, without the opportunity to recover it in the same course.

Use of AI

AI should be used as a learning support tool, in no case can it replace the student's learning process. If it is detected that the text of the reports is made exclusively with AI without any input from the student, it will not be corrected. If the code is made with AI, it is the student's responsibility to understand the mechanisms used and verify their functionality.
