4. COURSE DESCRIPTION AND TEACHING METHODOLOGY

Theorical units of the subject are covered in A1 activitity timetable.

Pratice units of the subject are covered in A2 activitity timetable.

Students expertise acquired during the course will be asessed in A3 activitity timetable.

5. ASSESSMENT METHODOLOGY

At the end of the course, each student will be able to choose between a 'global evaluation' and a 'single examination'.

Activities S1, S2, S3 and S4, as specified in section 'Sistema de evalución' will be considered for the 'global evaluation' choice. A final exam on the theorical aspects of the discipline -S2 and S3- will be accomplished to evaluate skills and competences defined for the subject. This final exam provides half of the total qualification for mentioned aspects. In order to gain a pass, a qualification equal or greater than 4 in 10 must be obtained in the final exam and in activity S4. Furthermore, an evaluation equal or greater than 5 in 10 must be globally acquired, taking into account the mentioned conditions. Any student could choose the 'single examination' option, in this case, there is no option to consider the 'global evaluation' alternative anymore.

For the 'single examination' option a final exam, that will cover all the disciplines especified for the subject, must be accomplished. The following ratios are established for the examination contents: 7 in 10 for S2 and S3 activities, and 3 in 10 for S4 activity. An evaluation equal or greater than 5 in 10 must be globally acquired, taking into account the mentioned conditions. A 'global evalution' student who has passed the practising part fo the subject, will not be evaluated on these items in the final exam.

The qualification of a positively evaluated part will be preserved during the academic course.
