7. Activities, Units/Modules and Methodology
| Training Activity | Methodology | Related Competences (only degrees before RD 822/2021) | ECTS | Hours | As | Com | Description | |
| Class Attendance (theory) [ON-SITE] | Lectures | CB02 CB03 CB04 CB05 CEC01 CG03 CG04 CT02 CT03 | 1.2 | 30 | N | N | The teacher will explain those aspects of the theoretical development of each topic that he considers necessary so that the student can later work independently. She will also present practical examples. | |

8. Evaluation criteria and Grading System
| Evaluation System | Continuous assessment | Non-continuous evaluation * | Description |
| Laboratory sessions | 30.00% | 30.00% | Attendance at practices and the presentation of the memory are mandatory to evaluate this activity. The minimum grade for this part to be compensable will be 2 points (with respect to 10). |
| Final test | 70.00% | 70.00% | Final exam of theory and problems of the content of the two blocks of the subject. The minimum grade for these blocks to be compensable will be 4 points (out of 10). If the student has passed the partial test, in the final test they will only be evaluated on the content of the Heat Transmission block. |
| 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 final grade in continuous evaluation will be:
35% partial test (as long as the mark is equal to or greater than 4) + 35% final test (as long as the mark is equal to or greater than 4) + 30% of the laboratory/computer practices. -
Non-continuous evaluation:It will consist of a final test where the contents of the Thermodynamics and Heat Transmission blocks are evaluated, following the specifications indicated in the continuous evaluation system.
If the student has not carried out the practices, or has not passed the evaluation of the memories, an exam of laboratory practices will be carried out. The minimum mark to compensate for this part will be 4 points (out of 10).
The course is considered approved if the final grade is greater than or equal to 5 (out of 10 points).
Specifications for the resit/retake exam:
The grades obtained in each of the tests that have been passed in the ordinary call will be kept.
The evaluation criteria will be the same as in the continuous evaluation of the ordinary call. In the case of not having passed the part of the laboratory practices in the ordinary call, an exam will be carried out on the contents of this part. The minimum mark to compensate for this part will be 4 points (out of 10).
The evaluation criteria will be the same as in the continuous evaluation of the ordinary call. In the case of not having passed the part of the laboratory practices in the ordinary call, an exam will be carried out on the contents of this part. The minimum mark to compensate for this part will be 4 points (out of 10).
Specifications for the second resit / retake exam:
In the final test, the same evaluation criteria will be applied as in the non-continuous ordinary call.
