2. Pre-Requisites
It is recommended to have successfully taken the subjects of Physics and Mathematics in secondary education
3. Justification in the curriculum, relation to other subjects and to the profession
For a science student, a solid foundation of physics fundamentals is essential, since this discipline is the basis of many applications that will be studied during the degree. The objective is that the student understands the basic principles of mechanics, thermodynamics, electromagnetism and optics; and acquire the skills that allow you to apply them to diverse situations. In the experimental section, the student will become familiar with the practical laboratory and will learn the rudiments of taking and representing scientific data in a professional manner, its analysis, the calculation of errors and operations with physical units.

8. Evaluation criteria and Grading System
| Evaluation System | Continuous assessment | Non-continuous evaluation * | Description |
| Mid-term tests | 35.00% | 42.50% | FINAL EXAM CORRESPONDING TO TOPICS 1 TO 5. A partial liberatory exam will be carried out at the end of the first semester. The final and retake exams of the will consist of two differentiated partials that are will be assessed separately and the student will only be examined from the subject corresponding to the partial exams in which the minimum grade of 4 points has not been passed. In the tests will assess the correct understanding of the basic concepts of the subject as well as its application in the reasoned resolution of practical exercises. (Mandatory and recoverable activity) |
| Mid-term tests | 35.00% | 42.50% | FINAL EXAM CORRESPONDING TO TOPICS 6 TO 10. A partial liberatory exam will be carried out at the end of the first semester. The final and retake exams of the will consist of two differentiated partials that are will be assessed separately and the student will only be examined from the subject corresponding to the partial exams in which the minimum grade of 4 points has not been passed. In the tests will assess the correct understanding of the basic concepts of the subject as well as its application in the reasoned resolution of practical exercises. (Mandatory and recoverable activity) |
| Other methods of assessment | 15.00% | 0.00% | Various evaluation activities: questionnaires, problem solving, seminars, ... |
| Laboratory sessions | 15.00% | 15.00% | Attitude in the laboratory, participation in data analysis seminars and preparation of practice reports |
| 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:There will be two partial exams, one in each semester. The partial exams will allow releasing material for the final exams if their grade is equal to or greater than 4. The final exam will consist of two differentiated partial exams, and students must examine the partial exams in which they have obtained a grade lower than 4, optionally they may also examine yourself to raise the mark of the passed partials. If the laboratory is passed with a grade higher than 4 and a grade higher than 4 is obtained in both partial exams, either during the course or in the final exam, the above weighting factors ((35+35)% exam, 15% laboratory and 15% activities) will be applied to obtain the final grade for the course. If the above conditions are not met, the final grade that will appear in the report will be the final exam grade (average of the partials) if it is not higher than 4 or 4 otherwise.
-
Non-continuous evaluation:The final exam will consist of two differentiated partial exams and in the case that the minimum grade of 4 has not been obtained in the laboratory, an additional test on the content and procedures treated in the laboratory. If a grade equal to or greater than 4 is obtained in the two partial tests of the final test and in the laboratory test, the previous weighting factors will be applied ((42.5 + 42.5)% test and 15% laboratory) to obtain the final mark of the subject. If the above conditions are not met, the final grade that will appear in the minutes will be the grade of the partial if it is not higher than 4 or 4 otherwise.
Specifications for the resit/retake exam:
Same criteria as in the final exam. Those students with a grade lower than 4 in the laboratory must take an additional test on the contents and procedures worked in the laboratory that must be passed with a grade equal to or greater than 4, to pass the course.
Specifications for the second resit / retake exam:
The mark for the second resit will be 85% of the exam mark plus 15% of the laboratory mark. If a grade lower than 4 has been obtained in the laboratory, an additional test will be carried out on the contents and procedures treated in the laboratory.
