3. Justification in the curriculum, relation to other subjects and to the profession
Community development is one of the areas of collective social intervention in which the social educator can carry out his professional work, working as a team with other professionals from the social sphere and from other fields such as economics, labor relations, engineering, etc. That is why it is essential that the knowledge, abilities and skills of this mode of intervention are acquired, aimed at promoting the conditions so that it is the populations who lead their own development and participation processes for an active and critical exercise of citizenship. This subject is related to many other subjects in the study plan, and especially to all those that have a relevant component of intervention applied to collective contexts and settings: social services, career guidance, emotional intelligence, social education methodology, exclusion intervention social, mediation and conflict resolution, project design, etc. The subject is located in Module IV - Socio-educational Action.

8. Evaluation criteria and Grading System
| Evaluation System | Continuous assessment | Non-continuous evaluation * | Description |
| Portfolio assessment | 30.00% | 0.00% | PORTFOLIO of individual evaluation of knowledge and skills by completing various tasks and compulsory evaluation tests (NOT RECOVERABLE because they will be carried out in periods of certain dates). The various activities in the portfolio will be detailed during the course and on the virtual campus, with the dates of completion / delivery being announced well in advance. NON-RECOVERABLE ACTIVITY IN EXTRAORDINARY CALL. All the activities in the portfolio will be carried out autonomously by the student (they will not be carried out in the classroom) always through online tools and applications. This means that for its realization, the presence of the student in the classroom is not required. |
| Fieldwork assessment | 30.00% | 0.00% | MANDATORY AND RECOVERABLE INDIVIDUAL PRACTICAL WORK IN EXTRAORDINARY CALL, which will consist of the preparation of a participatory community diagnosis of a specific rural area and a participatory community development project. This work will be done autonomously by the student outside the classroom and will be presented in pdf, on the virtual campus. |
| Progress Tests | 40.00% | 0.00% | Assessment of the learning process and the acquisition of skills and knowledge. During the course and on the virtual campus the specific activities of this criterion will be detailed. RECOVERABLE ACTIVITY IN EXTRAORDINARY CALL. The tests will be in person in the physical classroom of the faculty. Only in case of confinement (selective or general) or quarantine (selective or general) would they be carried out online. THERE WILL BE several PROOFS OF PROGRESS during the course, which can BE RECOVERED in January and in the extraordinary call. Those who pass ALL the progress tests will not have to repeat these tests in the final exam. Those who have failed a progress test will only have to complete the part corresponding to the progress test they have failed in this final exam. |
| Final test | 0.00% | 100.00% | The student who does not wish to be evaluated through continuous evaluation activities, will carry out a single final evaluation test, of a theoretical and practical nature, in which all the competences of the subject will be assessed. The decision to opt for this non-continuous evaluation modality (which implies a single final evaluation test) is personal and exclusive to each student. Because it is not associated with physical presence or non-physical presence in the student's classroom during the semester. That is, regardless of whether the student attends the activities in the physical classroom of the faculty, it is up to him to choose one or another evaluation modality. |
| 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 evaluation criteria correspond to those set out in the evaluation system. 30% portfolio, 30% field work, 40% progress tests.
The decision to opt for this modality of continuous evaluation (which implies a commitment on the part of the student to carry out different tests and compulsory evaluation activities during the semester) is personal and exclusive to each student. This evaluation system is not associated with physical attendance in the student's classroom during the semester, except on the dates when the progress tests and the public presentation of field work must be carried out. That is, regardless of whether or not the student attends classes in the physical classroom of the faculty, they can choose this evaluation modality. -
Non-continuous evaluation:Unique final evaluation test, theoretical and practical. 100% value of the final grade.
The student who decides to be evaluated through the non-continuous evaluation activities, will carry out a single final evaluation test, of a theoretical and practical nature, in which all the skills of the subject will be assessed.
Said test will be physically carried out in the faculty classroom on the dates of January and June established in the official exam calendar. Only in case of mandatory general confinement will it be done online.

Specifications for the resit/retake exam:
Students will take the same tests in an extraordinary call as those required in an ordinary call, depending on the evaluation system chosen by the student (continuous or non-continuous).
Students who have opted for continuous assessment in ordinary call must have carried out the non-recoverable online activities of the portfolio during the semester. The teacher will keep the grades of all the tests carried out by the student during the semester, and in the extraordinary call, they will only have to repeat the recoverable ones that they had failed during the semester.
A student who has chosen to be evaluated in the ordinary call through continuous evaluation, can change the evaluation system in the extraordinary call, being required to communicate said change by email to the teacher before May 1, 2021. The student who decides to do that change of evaluation system (change from continuous to non-continuous in extraordinary call) must meet all the requirements and criteria established in the non-continuous evaluation mode, so the teacher will not keep or consider the grades obtained in any other type of tests that it would have obtained during the ordinary call in continuous evaluation.
Students who have chosen in the ordinary call to be evaluated through continuous evaluation, obviously cannot change the evaluation system in the extraordinary call, which will be of the same nature and will be governed by the same criteria as in the ordinary call.

| Alinsky, Saúl | Rules for Radicals/Tratado para radicales | New York | Random House/Traficantes de Sueños | 2012 | Es la última obra de uno de los mayores referentes de la organización y la acción comunitaria, Saul Alinsky, publicada en 1971, poco antes de su muerte. «Tratado para radicales: Manual para revolucionarios pragmáticos»: Su meta era crear una guía para los futuros organizadores de comunidades para utilizar en la unión de las comunidades de bajos ingresos, con el fin de darles la posibilidad de lograr la igualdad social, política y económica, desafiando a los organismos que promovieron su desigualdad. Dentro de la obra, Alinsky compila las lecciones que había aprendido a través de sus experiencias personales sobre organización comunitaria que abarcan desde 1939 hasta 1971 y dirigiendo estas lecciones a la nueva generación de esa época. Aunque dirigido a la organización comunitaria -una corriente estadounidense que gira alrededor de la organización de base- sus capítulos también tocan otros problemas que van desde la ética, la educación, la comunicación, y la construcción simbólica de la no violencia y la filosofía política. Si bien el contexto del libro es enviar un mensaje a la generación de 1971, los principios de Alinsky se han aplicado en las últimas cuatro décadas por numerosas organizaciones gubernamentales, obreras, comunitarias y congregaciones confesionales. Yo diría que, si Alinsky viviera, hubiera celebrado la aparición del movimiento 15M, como si hubiera sido uno de sus promotores. (Esta última opinión es absolutamente personal de la profesora). | https://www.traficantes.net/sites/default/files/pdfs/Tratado%20para%20radicales-TdS.pdf | |||
