Evaluation criteria for the final exam:
-
Continuous assessment:
There will be a partial test, of theoretical-practical content, which will account for 20% of the mark.there will be a final test of theoretical-practical content,
which will account for 50% of the mark. The remaining 30% will depend on the mark obtained in the practical cases handed in during the course, which will
be worked on in groups in the classroom.In order to be able to add the mark of the partial exam and the practical cases, it is necessary to obtain a mark of 4 points out of 10 in the final exam.
In addition, students may opt for an oral improvement test to be held at the end of the teaching period, which may only add marks, but not subtract them, from the marks obtained in the previous phases of the course. Such a possible addition may amount to up to one point on the final mark for the course. In order to access the improvement test, it will be necessary for the student to obtain a minimum of 4 points out of 10 in the partial exam, and for the mark obtained in the improvement to be added to the final mark of the course, it will be necessary to remain in continuous assessment and to obtain a minimum mark of 4 points out of 10 in the final exam.
For the evaluation in special circumstances, the Student Evaluation Regulations of the University of Castilla-La Mancha will be followed (article 6).
