Evaluation criteria for the final exam:
-
Continuous assessment:
Students who take part in the continuous assessment will sit for two partial written exams at the dates previously agreed on and announced in due time in class and/or on Moodle/Campus Virtual. These exams will consist of two sections made up of several theoretical questions and various practical exercises. The written exam accounts for 70% of the final grade.
The remaining 30% corresponds to the progress tests on specific oral and/or written practical aspects that the student will be doing in the classroom and / or computer classroom throughout the semester. The grade obtained in this part will be taken into account on condition that it benefits the students. Otherwise, the final exam will be given a weight of 100% of the final mark.
It will be understood that the subject has been passed if, in all the evaluation tests, the student has obtained at least 50% of the maximum possible grade; typically, at least 5 out of 10 (See Article 4 of the Student Evaluation Regulation).
The linguistic quality of oral presentations, written assignments and the exam will be taken into account and will constitute a proportionate part of the final grade. For each grammatical or spelling error in the exam, 0.25 p. will be discounted up to a maximum of 3 penalty points.
If a fraudulent practice is detected in the evaluation test carried out by a student, the exam will result into failure, with a final grade of zero (0) in the corresponding subject.
The detection by the teacher that an assignment, essay or similar test has not been prepared by the student will result in a numerical grade of zero (0) both in the tests and in the subject in which it has been detected, regardless of the rest of the grades obtained by the student. (See Article 8 of the UCLM Student Assessment Regulations).
