8. Evaluation criteria and Grading System
Evaluation System Continuous assessment Non-continuous evaluation * Description
Test 70.00% 70.00% In the continuous evaluation, two partial tests will be carried out, while in the non-continuous evaluation, a single final test will be carried out. These tests, whatever their modality, will consist of theory and problems, and may also contain experimental problems related to laboratory practices.
Practicum and practical activities reports assessment 20.00% 20.00% Each student will present a report of each practice session, and at the end of the course a report on one of the practices carried out, work that will be assigned to each one by the teacher after the laboratory sessions are finished.

In the ordinary and extraordinary call, an evaluation test of laboratory skills will be made for those students who have not passed the practices. The practice exam will consist of a written test on assumptions of the laboratory practices.
Assessment of active participation 10.00% 10.00% At the end of some classes, questionnaires will be proposed on the concepts explained.

If a student abandons the continuous assessment, this part will be recovered by a written test the day of the final exam.
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:
    It will be considered that all students opt for the continuous mode, unless otherwise informed (non-continuous mode) by email addressed to the course coordinator. The change of mode (from continuous to non-continuous) may be carried out as long as the 50% of the evaluable activities or the class period has not finished. In these cases, even if the student expresses the intention exchange, it cannot be processed.

    To pass this subject, the student must:

    * Attend the practical laboratory sessions and carry out the deliveries and practical work assigned to them in a timely manner during the ordinary period. All students, regardless of whether they appear for the ordinary or extraordinary call (or completion, as the case may be) must meet these requirements. Each student will be assigned a practical report that must be positively evaluated (minimum mark of 4 out of 10) as an essential requirement to pass the subject.

    * Pass the two partial tests (minimum mark of 4 out of 10 in each of them). In case of not passing any of these two tests, the student will have to take the final exam of the entire subject.
    If a student abandons the continuous evaluation, the final exam will have 70% of the weight in the grade, both in the ordinary and in the extraordinary call.

    * Students who achieve a grade of at least 5 points, after adding the percentages of all the evaluation activities, will be evaluated positively in the subject.

    * Attendance at theory classes and seminars is not mandatory, but participation with use in class will be valued by completing questionnaires.
  • Non-continuous evaluation:
    * If the laboratory practices have been passed (minimum mark of 4 out of 10), the final exam will have 70% of the weight in the grade.
    * An additional testing will assess the participation in class with a weight of 10%, both in the ordinary and in the extraordinary calls.
    * An assessment test of laboratory skills will be done for those students who have not passed the practices. The practice exam will consist of a written test on assumptions of the laboratory practices, accounting for 20% of the total grade.

Specifications for the resit/retake exam:
The same valuation percentages apply as in the ordinary non-continuous mode, that is:
* If the laboratory practices have been passed (minimum mark of 4 out of 10), the final exam will have a weight of 70% of the mark. The grade for this part may be maintained if it has been passed (minimum grade of 4 out of 10) in the ordinary call.
* The additional test to evaluate the competencies of participation with achievement in class will have a weight of 10%. The grade for this part obtained in the ordinary call may be maintained (no minimum grade is required).
* An assessment test of laboratory skills will be made for those students who have not passed the practices (minimum grade of 4 out of 10) in ordinary call. The practice exam will consist of a written test on assumptions of laboratory practices, and will account for 20% of the total grade.
Those students who have positively evaluated (minimum mark of 4 out of 10) the practices in an academic year but have not passed the subject, in successive courses may choose between repeating the complete practices or requesting that the grade obtained when they were carried out be maintained.
Specifications for the second resit / retake exam:
Only students who meet the requirements set out in the Student Evaluation Regulations of the University of Castilla-La Mancha will be able to access this call, and will be evaluated in accordance with the criteria applied in the extraordinary call.
