A maximum of 4 points will be added to the grade of the exam (up to 6 points) and therefore to the final grade of the course, depending on the quality and number of practices delivered, carried out and exposed in class.

Those students who, for justified reasons, cannot attend all the classroom practicals, must hand in the "portfolio" or "Practicals book" before the exam. They should talk with the professors to determine the times and hours to present the practices

Aquellos estudiantes que por causas justificadas no puedan asistir a todas las prácticas presenciales autorizadas, deberán entregar antes del examen el “portafolio” o “Libro de prácticas” y para determinar horas y tiempos para exponer las prácticas.

- Multiple-choice test. It will consist of 30 multiple choice questions with a penalty of 0.33 for each incorrect question (i.e. for every three incorrect questions one point will be deducted).

To pass the exam it will be necessary to have obtained a 5 out of 10. Once passed, the score of each exam will be converted to a base 6 (i.e. a 10 = 6 and so on).

- Completion, submission and presentation of practical work (up to 4 points out of 10). The evaluation of these practicals will have a weight of 40% of the total of the final grade obtained by the student in the course. The grade for the practices will take into account their quality, as well as their delivery in due time and form.

- Assessment of individual work. The student's participation and activity in studium forums and other non face-to-face tasks will be assessed. Such participation will be a quality criterion that may benefit the student in the final grade (for example, to assess the awarding of an Honours Degree, or similar).

The final grade will reflect the competences worked on by the student throughout the academic year, through the completion of theoretical-practical tasks. It is recommended that students take all the assessment tests and actively participate in the classroom and in non-classroom activities.

Recomendaciones para la recuperación:

Attendance at the exam results review session is recommended in order to identify the main weaknesses and plan strategies to pass the exam in subsequent exam sessions.
