4. COURSE DESCRIPTION AND TEACHING METHODOLOGY

A1. Lectures with big group of students.

They are based in the explanation of the theory concepts, exercises and practical problems of the course.

A2. Lectures with practical groups.

They are developed in the lab, and they are based on the explanation of the practical units in the lab and their execution by the students.

A3. Tutorials.

The tutorials will be used by the students for the resolution of doubts.

Students with special educational needs should contact the Student Attention Service (Servicio de Atención y Ayudas al Estudiante) in order to receive the appropriate academic support

5. ASSESSMENT METHODOLOGY

At the end of the semester, the student has to choose between two methods of evaluation: OVERALL EVALUATION or FINAL EXAM.

OVERALL EVALUATION

This assessment method is organised according to the activities described in the previous table. The evaluation process consists of:

- The evaluation of the tasks defined in the Teaching Guide during the Teaching period.

- A final Written Exam during the Examination period.

The assessment aspects evaluated in both parts and their contribution to the final mark are summarized in the following table:

Marks obtained during the Teaching period (as a record of the continuous evaluation process) will be kept until the end of the academic year.

Written Exam

The students have to make a Written Exam that assesses the theoretical and operating aspects of the subject (S2 and S3) at the end of the semester (at the date established in the examination period). This final evaluation is made to assess the extent to which the students have acquired all the competences and learning outcomes established for those aspects. The weight of this exam is the 50% of each of the evaluated aspects (S2 and S3).

Any books, notes, documentation, or equipment allowed for this Final Exam have to be approved by the lecturer.

Final assessment

The students must obtain a mark higher or equal to 4 (out of 10) in S4 to keep this evaluation method (Laboratory or computer practical work). The students will pass the subject through this evaluation method by getting a mark higher or equal than 5.0 out of 10 in the overall result (continuous evaluation and written exam), but with the condition of obtaining a mark higher or equal to 4.0 in the Written Exam and in S4.

The students can renounce to the Overall Evaluation at any time, but they cannot choose it again. Thus, they will be evaluated only by the FINAL EXAM method.

FINAL EXAM EVALUATION

This kind of evaluation is based in only one written exam that evaluates all the aspects of the subject, by assessing the students' acquisition of all the competences and learning outcomes established in the subject. This exam will take place during the Examination period on a date established by the centre. The final exam is weighted in the following way:

- Attendance and participation (S1), theoretical concepts (S2) and Exercises, problems and study cases (S3): 70%.

- Laboratory and computer practical work (S4): 30%.

 In order to pass the subject, the student must have marks higher or equal to 5.0 out of 10 at each part of the final exam.

The students who have already fulfil the requirements of aspect S4 (Laboratory or computer practical work) through the OVERALL EVALUATION, by obtaining a mark higher or equal to 5.0 out of 10 do not have to make this part in the FINAL EXAM evaluation.

Those aspects successfully completed with a mark higher or equal to 5.0 will be considered passing during that academic year.

DETAILS OF THE EVALUATION

The overall evaluation is based on the next aspects:
* S1, Attendance and active participation (10%)
* S2, Theoretical concepts (30%)
* S3, Exercises, cases and works (30%)
* S4, Laboratory practising (30%)

S1. Attendance and active participation (10%)

In this aspect, the CB9,CG3,CG4,CG8,CT3 competences are evaluated. A positive evaluation leads to the achievement of these competences or the learning results 27,28,29,30,31.

The attendance will be taken into account within the laboratory activities, which represents the 5% of the overall mark. The maximum will be reached with the attendance to the 90% of the activities. The active participation in the lectures will represent the other 5% of the overall mark.

S2. Theoretical concepts (30%)

In this aspect, the CB6, CB7, CB8, CB9, CB10, CG1, CG2, CG3, CG4, CG5, CG6, CG7, CG8, CG9, CG10, CT1, CT2, CT3, CT4, CT5, CT6, CT7, CE4, CE6, CE8 competences are evaluated. A positive evaluation leads to the achievement of these competences or the learning results 27,28,29,30,31.

This aspect is evaluated in the last exam of the subject with a 15% of the overall mark, and with two intermediate evaluations for the other 15% of the overall mark.

 S3. Exercises, cases and works (30%)

In this aspect, the CB6, CB7, CB8, CB9, CB10, CG4, CG5, CG6, CG7, CG8, CG9, CG10, CT1, CT2, CT3, CT4, CT5, CT6, CT7, CE4, CE6, CE8 competences are evaluated. A positive evaluation leads to the achievement of these  competences or the learning results 27,28,29,30,31.

This aspect is evaluated in the last exam of the subject with a 15% of the overall mark, and with two intermediate  evaluations for the other 15% of the overall mark. 

S4. Laboratory practising (30%)

In this aspect, the CB6, CB7, CB8, CB9, CB10, CG3, CG4, CG5, CG6, CG7, CG8, CG9, CG10, CT1, CT2, CT3, CT4, CT5, CT6, CT7, CE4, CE6, CE8 competencies are evaluated. A positive evaluation leads to the achievement of these competences or the learning results 27,28,29,30,31.

The students will write technical reports for the practical activities along the semester. The laboratory practising (30% of the overall mark) will be evaluated with these reports together with oral questions and demonstrations in the laboratory.
