The evaluation of the ordinary call consists of two parts:
a) PRACTICAL PART: will consist of the elaboration of a Syllabus and a Unit of Work in English following the criteria established in the MOODLE of the subject. This unit must contain all the teaching-learning activities practiced in the classroom and also specified the MOODLE of the subject. Oral expositions in class on the different techniques and methods studied will be included in this part. The correct expression in English will be taken into account for assessment. This part also includes 3-4 progress tests based on practical issues.
B) WRITTEN FINAL TEST: It consists of a multiple choice test and questions on the topics of the agenda. This test will be carried out entirely in English and the student must respond in his own words, demonstrating that he has internalized the contents. To assess the test, the correct expression in English will be taken into account.
It is essential to obtain a minimum of 40% (4 out of 10) in the compulsory evaluable training activities to make the average between training activities applicable". To pass the subject the student must obtain a minimum mark of 5 out of 10.
The assessment will be according to the following criteria: for every mistake of those included in the "List of mistakes to avoid" (see Moodle), the student will miss 0.25 marks in the corresponding activity/test/presentation/exam up to a maximum of 3 marks.
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.
