8. Evaluation criteria and Grading System
| Evaluation System | Continuous assessment | Non-continuous evaluation * | Description |
| Assessment of problem solving and/or case studies | 60.00% | 60.00% | Partial submissions during the course and final poster of the project. Minimum grade required in each one: 4.0 |
| Oral presentations assessment | 40.00% | 40.00% | Final presentation of the project and debate. Minimum grade required: 4.0 |
| Total: | 100.00% | 100.00% |
According to art. 4 of the UCLM Student Evaluation Regulations, it must be provided to students who cannot regularly attend face-to-face training activities the passing of the subject, having the right (art. 12.2) to be globally graded, in 2 annual calls per subject , an ordinary and an extraordinary one (evaluating 100% of the competences).
Evaluation criteria for the final exam:
-
Continuous assessment:The final grade of the course must be greater or equal to 5.0, and it will be obtained using the percentages assigned for the different activities included in the continuous evaluation system.
Unless stated otherwise, continuous evaluation criteria will be applied to all students.
Anyone choosing non-continuous assessment must follow the official process to inform about it. This option is only available if the student's participation in evaluation activities (from the continuous assessment) has not reached 50% of the total evaluation for the subject. -
Non-continuous evaluation:The final grade of the course must be greater or equal to 5.0, and it will be obtained using the percentages assigned for the different activities included in the non-continuous evaluation system. The evaluation activities in the non-continuous evaluation system will be the same as in the continuous system, but in this case the student should elaborate them individually and submit them in the specific dates established at the beginning of the course.
Specifications for the resit/retake exam:
Every student is evaluated in the same way than in the final exam assessment (for both continuous or non-continuous evaluation), considering the same weighting percentages for getting the final grade.
Specifications for the second resit / retake exam:
In this case, every student is evaluated using the same criteria and weighting percentages established in the non-continuous evaluation.
