Assessment

Continous Assessment Activities

This module does not include single-assessment evaluation.

Assessment Criteria

The midterm exam will account for 30% of the final average grade of the course.
The final exam will account for 50% of the final average grade of the course.

Thus, the final average grade is calculated as follows:

Final average grade =
30% (midterm exam grade) +
50% (final exam grade) +
20% (grade from exercises/assignments/laboratory tests)

The course will be considered passed if the following two requirements are met:

• The final average grade is equal to or greater than 5, and

• The final exam grade is equal to or greater than 3.

If a student meets the first requirement but not the second, they will receive a final average grade of 4.5 and may take the reassessment exam, according to the conditions outlined in the “Reassessment Process” section below.

If a student meets the second requirement but not the first, or neither of the two, they may still take the reassessment exam, under the same conditions.

A student who has not participated in any assessment activity will be considered "Not assessable."

Assessment Schedule

The dates of the various assessment activities (midterm exams, in-class exercises, assignment submissions, etc.) will be announced well in advance during the semester.

The date of the final exam is scheduled in the Faculty’s official exam calendar.

“Assessment activities may not be rescheduled, except in cases of exceptional and duly justified reasons that prevent the student from attending an evaluation activity.
In such cases, the academic program coordinators, after consultation with the teaching staff and affectedstudents, will propose a new schedule within the corresponding academic period.”
(Section 1, Article 264 – Assessment Activities Calendar, UAB Academic Regulations)

Students from the Faculty of Economics and Business who, according to the above, need to reschedule an assessment must submit a request by filling out the form:
Assessment Rescheduling Request: e-Form for Rescheduling Assessments.

Grade Review Procedure

Coinciding with the final exam, the date and method of publication of the final grades will be announced.
Details regarding the procedure, location, date, and time of the exam review session will also be provided, in accordance with university regulations.

Reassessment Process

“To participate in the reassessment process, students must have been previously assessed in activities representing at least two-thirds of the total grade for the course or module.”
(Section 2, Article 261 – Reassessment, UAB Academic Regulations)

Students must have obtained a final average grade between 3.5 and 4.9.

The date of the reassessment exam will be scheduled in the Faculty’s exam calendar.
If the student passes this exam, they will pass the course with a grade of 5. Otherwise, their original grade will remain unchanged.

Irregularities in Assessment

Without prejudice to other disciplinary measures deemed appropriate and in accordance with current academic regulations:

“If a student commits any irregularity that could lead to a significant alteration of the grade of an assessment activity, that activity will be graded with a 0, regardless of any disciplinary proceedings that may be initiated.
If multiple irregularities occur across different assessment activities in the same course, the final grade for that course will be 0.”
