8. Evaluation criteria and Grading System
| Evaluation System | Continuous assessment | Non-continuous evaluation * | Description |
| Mid-term tests | 70.00% | 0.00% | There will be a partial test of the subject in the middle of the course and it will be recoverable both in the ordinary and extraordinary exams, together with the second part. Each part will have the same weight and may include theory and problems. The minimum mark for each test is 4/10 in order to make an average with the rest of the evaluable activities. Non-continuous assessment consists of a test with two blocks and a minimum mark of 4/10 must be obtained in the overall mark in order to pass the subject. |
| Final test | 0.00% | 70.00% | This will be a single final exam to be taken in the ordinary or extraordinary exam. It will be necessary to achieve a 4/10 to average with the rest of the evaluable activities. |
| Laboratory sessions | 22.00% | 22.00% | Attendance at the practicals, submission of the report and resolution of practical questions are compulsory in order to be assessed with 22% of the final mark. If the student does not pass these activities during the course, it will be recoverable by means of an assessment that allows the evaluation of similar competences both in the ordinary and extraordinary call that will have a weight of 22% and that must be passed (4 points out of 10) to average with the rest of the evaluable activities of the subject. |
| Assessment of problem solving and/or case studies | 8.00% | 8.00% | Resolution of cases of practical and expository content related to the subject, which will have a weight of 8% of the total grade. This activity will be carried out during the course and will be recoverable by means of an assessment that allows similar competences to be evaluated in both the ordinary and extraordinary exams. |
| 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:Students who have passed the internship and the partial exam will take a second partial exam in the ordinary exam with questions related to the remaining subject syllabus. If the student has not passed the first partial exam, he/she will have to take two tests, one of the first part of the subject and another of the second part of the subject. It is necessary to obtain a minimum of 4 points out of 10 in each of the tests in order to obtain an average with the rest of the evaluable activities.
If the student has not passed the laboratory practicals during the course, he/she must take a test to evaluate similar competences both in the ordinary and extraordinary exams, and must obtain a minimum of 4 points out of 10 to obtain an average with the rest of the evaluable activities. The weight of this block in the final grade is 22% of the overall grade for the course.
If the student has not carried out the practical cases during the course, he/she must take an assessment of this part that evaluates the same competences acquired in the practical cases and that will have a weight of 8% in the overall grade of the course.
The subject will only be considered passed if the student has obtained at least 5 out of 10 in all the assessment tests. -
Non-continuous evaluation:The student must take a final test that will include content from the entire syllabus of the course, which will have a weight of 70% in the overall grade of the course. Students must obtain at least a 4 out of 10 in order to obtain an average with the rest of the evaluable activities of the subject.
The student must take a specific theoretical-practical test to evaluate the competences acquired after the internship, which will have a weight of 22% in the overall grade of the subject. Students must obtain a minimum of 4 out of 10 in order to obtain an average with the rest of the evaluable activities of the course.
The student must take a specific test to evaluate the same competences acquired in the practical cases, which will have a weight of 8% in the overall grade of the course.
The course will only be considered passed if the student has obtained at least 5 out of 10 in all the evaluation tests.
Specifications for the resit/retake exam:
Evaluation criteria are the same as for the final exam.
Specifications for the second resit / retake exam:
Evaluation criteria are the same as for the final exam.
