Teaching Methodologies and Assessment Criteria |
Classes are presented using audiovisual media. Application exercises and analysis of case studies are also carried out.
The assessment of knowledge is based on the final exam (individual).
1) Final Exam (individual)
The final exam (NEF) consists of a written test (NE) and oral exam (NEO). The final exam grade, NEF, is calculated as follows:
- if NE => 16 values and performed the oral exam, then NEF = NEO;
- if NE => 16 values and not performed the oral exam, then NEF = 16 values;
- if 9,5 <= NE < 16 values, then NEF = NE;
- if NE < 9.5 values, then NEF = NE ("Disapproved").
Admission to the final exam depends on obtaining attendance in accordance with the criteria below.
