Teaching Methodologies and Assessment Criteria Assessement along the semester

Two tests:

1st test on October 29th during class (0-10 points)

2nd test on December 10th during class (0-10 points)

To pass the curricular unit by this assessment system:

a) The maximum number of absences is 3.

b) The sum of the scores for both tests must be equal to or greater than 10 points, with the minimum grade for each test being 3 points.


Assessment by final exam

Exam admission condition: a maximum of 3 class absences during the semester.

The exam has two parts, corresponding to different subject matters of the course

Part 1 (0-10 points)

Part 2 (0-10 points)

To pass the exam, the sum of the scores for both parts of the exam must be equal to or greater than 10 points, with the minimum score for each part being 3 points.
