8. Evaluation criteria and Grading System
| Evaluation System | Continuous assessment | Non-continuous evaluation * | Description |
| Final test | 70.00% | 80.00% | Written proof that allows the evaluation of acquisition of the competencies corresponding to the subject. |
| Laboratory sessions | 20.00% | 20.00% | Continuous evaluation through the monitoring of the acquisition of practical knowledge (laboratory) and the evaluation of the laboratory notebook that will include the answers to different questions raised. |
| Assessment of problem solving and/or case studies | 10.00% | 0.00% | Resolution of case studies in the classroom, demonstrating the acquisition of the corresponding competences. It will be added to the first section |
| 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:Final numerical rating from 0 to 10 depending on current legislation.
The final qualification will be the result of continuous evaluation through the monitoring of acquisition of theoretical and practical knowledge
demonstrate the acquisition of the skills. At the end of the first part of the subject (Coordination Chemistry) a progress test will be carried out, which if it is passed will serve as part of the note of the final exam.
Prior to the start of the laboratory activities, an online test will be carried out on virtual campus that proves the reading of the practice scripts and the knowledge necessary to do the activities in the laboratory.
The final rating of the subject will be calculated as a result of the following actions:
(a) final examination (70% ), (b) laboratory session (20% ) and (c) resolution of case studies in the classroom (10% ).
The subject cannot be passed if the laboratory sessions has not been completed and passed and if it does not pass the final exam -
Non-continuous evaluation:Final numerical rating from 0 to 10 depending on current legislation.
The final rating shall be the result of an assessment demonstrating the acquisition of the relevant skills.
In the beginning of the laboratory activities, an online test will be carried out on virtual campus that proves the reading of the practice scripts and the knowledge necessary to do the laboratory.
The final grade of the subject will be calculated as a result of the following actions:
final evaluation (70% ), (b) conducting (laboratory) (20% ) and c) resolution of case studies in the classroom (10% o).
The subject cannot be approved if the laboratory classes has not been completed and passed and if it does not pass the final evaluation.
Specifications for the resit/retake exam:
Same as the ordinary call
Specifications for the second resit / retake exam:
