Methodology and grading

Methodology

Cooperative learning: Develop active learning through cooperative working strategies among students and promote shared responsibility to reach group goals.
Lecture: Pass on knowledge and activate cognitive processes in students, encouraging their participation.
Solving exercises and problems: Exercise, test, and apply previous knowledge through routine repetition.

Grading

The evaluation of the subject will consist of the following parts:

THEORY-PROBLEMS: Written exam on the theoretical contents related to the subject. This exam will be scored on 7.5 points (75% of the final grade of the subject). This test will consist of multiple choice questions related to the syllabus of the subject and some problems.

PROBLEMS EVALUATION: The problems of the course will also be evaluated through online questionnaires associated with the different topics. The overall score of the problems will be 1 point (10% of the final grade of the subject). Those students who do not complete all the questionnaires will obtain the proportional part of the grade. The non-delivery of any questionnaire has no consequence except the loss of the note associated with them.

PRACTICES: Attendance at laboratory practices is mandatory. The note of the practices will be 1.5 points (15% of the final grade of the subject) and is divided into:
- Practices Notebook: The practical notebook will be delivered online at the end of each of the practices. The value of this evaluation will be 0.7 points.
- Practice exam: Short questions related to the practices and their value will be 0.8 points. To be able to take this exam the student must be APTO in practice. This qualification of apt in practice is achieved by attending at least 6 of the 7 scheduled practices, sending, as a minimum, 6 of the 7 online forms provided and maintaining a positive attitude during the practices. All APTOS students, regardless of the year of completion of the internship, will have to take this exam.
The final grade of the subject will be the sum of the grades obtained in the three previous sections:
- Theory-problems exam: 7.5 points -
- Problems: 1 point
- Practices: - Workbook: 0.7 points. - Exam of practices: 0.8 points.
Those students who have not completed the internship in the laboratory or who have obtained a Not Applicable will have to take a special internship exam. The attendance to practices and the note of the notebook will be kept during the two courses following the year of realization of the practices. If, after this time, the subject has not been passed, the student will have to go back to carry out the practices in the laboratory and re-deliver the corresponding notebook.

The passed in the subject can be obtained in the exams of February (ordinary call) or September (extraordinary call). In accordance with current regulations, there will be a December exam (extraordinary call) for those students who meet the stipulated requirements. This December exam will have a value of 10 points and no previous note will be taken into account.

All students will be able to take a final evaluation test on the acquisition of all the competences of the subject, independently of the systems of participation and continuous evaluation.
