Criterios de evaluación.
A continuous assessment system will be implemented in this course, instead of a final evaluation. This entails the following requirements:
- Completing class tasks + setting your smartphone in airplane mode (unless the smartphone is needed for some class activity. (30%)
- Taking a Multiple Choice Test (30%) during the course, once the course content has been presented by the educator.
NOTICE that this Test is part of the continuous assessment process. This means that this test will only be taken during the course since it is considered a fundamental stage towards the preparation of final group project.
- Completing a final Group Project (40%), which will be presented at the end of the course, as the last part of the continuous assessment system.
- NOTICE: The workload in this course will be distributed between class tasks and out of class activities. We may require groups to refine and modify their final group project, after their oral presentation in class. The last two weeks of the course may be devoted to this.
