Teaching Methodologies and Assessment Criteria |
Learning Phase:
• Up to 12 points will be obtained through a written test (“Frequencia”).
• Up to 8 points will be obtained through practical work, performed in groups..
• Date for delivery of the first practical works: 10, Nov. 2023.
• Date for delivery of the second practical works: 4, Jan. 2024.
• Written test (“Frequencia”): 3, Jan. 2024, 11:15h.
To obtain acceptance to the exam of “normal epoch”:
• It is required to obtain 6 points (in the maximum of 20) in the Learning Phase.
• It is required to miss less tan 20% of the classes (except in case of justifiable absences).
Exam:
• In principle the exam will be evaluated to a maxuimum of 12 points, and those will be added to the maximum of 8 points from the practical works. However, if scaling the exam classification from 0 to 12 to 0 to 20 points is beneficial to the student, that will be the exam classification.
