The subject is structured in three types of sessions:

• 25 theoretical-practical sessions (100 minutes) held in the IT classrooms where the theoretical content will first be presented and then applied in the practical part of the session, where the students will work in pairs. Some of the built cases may be non-evaluable deliverables
• 3 practical evaluation sessions (2 h) held in the computer classrooms, in which the students, individually, will solve problems from thematic blocks 2; 4.1 + 4.2 + 4.3 + 4.4; 4.5 + 4.6 + 5. (The contents of block 4.7 will appear throughout the syllabus and, consequently, in any of the assessment tests). At the end of the session, the students submit the results obtained and are evaluated.

The evaluable activity corresponding to block 2 will count for 20% of the total mark

The evaluable activity corresponding to blocks 4.1 + 4.2 + 4.3 + 4.4 will count for 40% of the total grade

The evaluable activity corresponding to blocks 4.5 + 4.6 + 5 will count for 40% of the total grade

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.

a) Continuous evaluation:

The subject is assessed continuously with 3 individually assessable activities, one with the contents of block 2 (which accounts for 20% of the total), another with the contents of blocks 4.1 + 4.2 + 4.3 + 4.4 (which accounts for a 40% of the total) and another with the contents of blocks 4.5 + 4.6 + 5 (which accounts for 40% of the total). These activities will take the form of a partial exam in the computer labs.

In the case of irregularities in any of these assessable activities, the criteria of point e) will be applied.

To pass the subject, you will need to get a minimum of 5.0 as an average grade in the continuous assessment and a minimum grade of 3.0 in each assessable activity.

b) Review of qualifications:

For each assessment activity, a review place, date and time will be indicated in which the student can review the activity with the teacher. In this context, claims can be made about the grade of the activity, which will be evaluated by the teaching staff responsible for the subject. If the student does not appear for this review, this activity will not be reviewed later.

c) Recovery:

The student who does not pass the subject through continuous assessment may take a final recovery exam, which will include content from the entire subject and which will count for 100%

The minimum grade to pass this final exam is again 5.0. In the case of not appearing for this exam, the student will keep the grade of the continuous assessment (whatever it is).

The student can present himself for recovery as long as he has presented himself to a set of activities that represent a minimum of two-thirds of the total grade of the subject.

d) Qualifications:

Honorary matriculations. Awarding an honors matriculation qualification is the decision of the teaching staff responsible for the subject. UAB regulations indicate that MH can only be granted to students who have obtained a final grade equal to or higher than 9.00. Up to 5% of MH of the total number of enrolled students can be awarded.

A student will be considered non-evaluable (NA) if he has not taken part in a set of activities whose weight is equivalent to a minimum of two-thirds of the subject's total grade.

e) Irregularities by the student, copying and plagiarism:

Without prejudice to other disciplinary measures deemed appropriate, irregularities committed by the student that could lead to a change in the grade of an assessment act will be graded with a zero. Therefore, copying, plagiarism, deception, copying, impersonation, etc. in any of the assessment activities will involve failing 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, with no opportunity to recover it in the same course. In this case, the student's final grade is a FAIL (3.0 numerical grade).

f) Calendar and schedule:

The dates of continuous assessment and assignment of assignments will be published in the corresponding Moodle classroom and may be subject to possible changes in programming for reasons of adaptation to possible incidents. You will always be informed via the Moodle classroom about these changes as it is understood that this is the usual platform for exchanging information between teachers and students.

This subject does not provide for a single assessment system.

In this subject, the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies is not allowed in any of its phases. Any work that includes fragments generated with AI will be considered a lack of academic honesty and may lead to a partial or total penalty in the grade of the activity, or greater sanctions in serious cases.
