Teaching Methodologies and Assessment Criteria |
Classes are theoretical-practical. In addition to the presentation of contents, discussion, problem solving and the performance and presentation of practical work are promoted.
- The assessment of knowledge during the Teaching-Learning process will consist of 3 individual works (T1, T2 and T3), 1 group work (TG) and 1 written/test (F). - Graded grades for individual assignments, group assignments and the written test are developed on a 0-20 scale and rounded to the nearest integer. The final Teaching-Learning (CF) classification will be given by rounding to the units of the classification received by the following calculation: CF= F/3+(T1+T2+T3)/9+TG/3. - To be admitted to the exam, the student must have attended at least two classes or have completed an evaluation period. - The student who has a Teaching-Learning classification equal to or greater than 10 will be exempt from the final exam.
