Teaching Methodologies and Assessment Criteria |
Theory and practical tests – 60% of final evaluation: TPT= 0,3xT1 + 0,3xT2. Practical Exercises (PE) – 40% of final evaluation: PE=0,2xPE + 0,2xPE.
The student must obtain a minimum of 9.5 in each of the components, TPT and PE, to obtain approval for the curricular unit. Classification (C)= 0,3xT1 + 0,3xT2 + 0,2xPE1 + 0,2PE2. The student is approved if he/she obtains a classification greater than or equal to 9.5 during the teaching-learning period. In case of approval, the final classification (FC) is the integer closest to C, that is: If C >= 9.5, then approved with FC = round (C). In case of approval in the teaching-learning period, the student is exempt from the exam, although they may improve their final exam classification. FC < 5.5 (out of 20) => Not approved and Not Admitted to the Exam;FC >= 9.5 (out of 20) => Approved and Exempted from Exam; Remaining cases => Not approved and Admitted to the Exam
Exam(60%)+40%(relating to practical exercise)
