8. Evaluation criteria and Grading System
Evaluation System Continuous assessment Non-continuous evaluation * Description
Mid-term tests 70.00% 0.00% There will be written tests that will consist of questions and problems. In the case of exams that have a theoretical part and a practical part, a minimum of 40% of the maximum grade that can be obtained in each part may be required in each part in order to make an average with the rest of the activities.
Projects 15.00% 15.00% 1. Elaboration of problems and/or works
In this section, the problems and/or works presented will be assessed, as well as the attitude shown by the student towards the activities. The following will be taken into account: problem statement, use of terminology, choice of procedure, justification of the process used, results obtained, cleanliness and presentation of the document. In addition, the delivered document must comply with the specific regulations for its delivery, which will be available to students on the Moodle platform.

1. Presentation of works
It consists of making one or several presentations in PowerPoint format in class or using Microsoft Teams. The presentation will be made individually and both the work presented will be valued, as well as the attitude shown by the student in the presentation and the ability to answer questions from the teacher and the rest of the students. In addition, the PPT document must comply with the specific regulations for its delivery, which will be available to students on the Moodle platform.

Applicable to both cases:
The student who has not delivered the requested documents will not be able to make the exhibition. On the other hand, that student who does not make the exhibition (even having delivered the documents in a timely manner), will not be able to be evaluated in this activity and must be examined in the extraordinary final exam of the contents related to this activity.

Passing this activity may be kept for a maximum of two academic years.
Final test 0.00% 70.00% There will be a written test consisting of questions and problems. In the case of exams that have a theoretical part and a practical part, a minimum of 40% of the maximum grade that can be obtained in each part may be required in each part in order to make an average with the rest of the activities.
Practicum and practical activities reports assessment 15.00% 15.00% Experimental measurements will be carried out in the laboratory, in small groups.
The face-to-face work carried out during the practice and the subsequent report of this will be valued.
The report (delivered in groups of 2-3 students, via Moodle) must comply with the specific regulations for its delivery, which will be available to students on the Moodle platform.
If the above requirements are not met, as it is a compulsory activity, the student will have to take an additional exam that covers the contents of the practices, together with the extraordinary final exam of the subject, whose value on the final grade will be the same than that indicated in this section.

Passing this activity may be kept for a maximum of two academic years.
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:
    MINIMUM NOTES
    Each activity (including the exam) will be passed when a grade of 4 or higher is obtained, that is, the minimum grade in each of the compulsory parts (including the exam) will be equal to or greater than 4. The subject will be passed obtaining a grade equal to or greater than 5.
    CONSIDERATIONS IN CASE OF COPY
    Those students who submit the copied works/practice scripts/presentations (that is, whose percentage of resemblance to another student/s, from their course or from previous ones, is greater than 80%), will be evaluated with a zero in this exercise. This means that they will have to be evaluated from the copied part in the final exam.
    CIVIC CONSIDERATIONS FOR THE FINAL EXAM (AND THE PARTIAL EXAMS, IF ANY)
    During the exam the use of programmable calculators will not be allowed. It is strictly forbidden to have mobile, recording or playback devices (this includes any device that allows communication with the outside or with other students) in the exam. Failure to comply with this rule will lead to the expulsion of the exam and the immediate obtaining of a suspense in that call for the subject. Students with more than three calls for attention during the exam (for conversations with classmates, for uncivil behavior, or lack of respect for the teacher) will be expelled from the exam and will obtain a fail in that session of the subject. Exams done in pencil will not be corrected.
    SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS
    In the event that there are special circumstances that may affect attendance, such as long-term illnesses, exceptional work or personal circumstances, etc., it is recommended that the teaching staff be informed as soon as possible, in order to study a personalized work plan for the course.
  • Non-continuous evaluation:
    Examination of all the contents and activities of the subject. The activities related to the delivery of work may be carried out via Teams in the event that the circumstances of the student or the teacher so determine, this exhibition having the same value as the one carried out in class. In the case of practices that cannot be carried out, they will be replaced by another activity/exam that develops the same contents as the practices.

Specifications for the resit/retake exam:
The activities passed in the ordinary call will be respected in this call
Students who have not completed the practices or have not passed them, as it is a compulsory activity, the student may take an additional exam (or another similar activity) that covers the contents of the practices, together with the extraordinary final exam of the subject. , whose value over the final grade will be the same as that indicated in this section.
Students who have not prepared the works, nor have made the presentations, will be able to pass these contents in the extraordinary final exam of the subject or in an additional test.
The rest of the considerations are the same as in the ordinary call
Specifications for the second resit / retake exam:
Examination of all the contents and activities of the subject
The rest of the considerations are the same as in the ordinary call
