An evaluation of the theoretical-practical training will be
carried out in which all the generic competences will be assessed,
as well as the specific competences and the contents presented in
the different thematic units proposed. Specific and attitudinal
skills will be dealt with in specific group work activities, as
well as in the framework of other specific activities such as
attitude in debates.
To carry out this evaluation, the following will be carried
out:
Attendance (5%):
There will be a daily control in class of this attendance and participation. CT-2 competition.
Evaluation of the theory (50%):
There will be an objective test type written exam (30%) + continuous evaluation in the form of questionnaires and/or activities directed at the end of the main theoretical blocks (20%), up to a weight of 50% of the grade. This part will allow evaluating the CE-33, CE-2, CE-24, CB-1 and CT-2 competencies.
Internship evaluation (30%):
After the completion of each block of practices, an evaluation exercise will be carried out during the class schedule, as a continuous evaluation. The grade for these exercises will be saved as a grade for the practice exam, if it is higher than 4.5 in each block. Block 1: Computer classroom practices; Block 2: Teaching laboratory practices; Block 3: Field practices. Percentage: 30%.
Delivery of practices + bibliographic work (15%)
In addition, continuous evaluation will be done through attendance and delivery of the activities developed during the course plus the bibliographic work. CT-2, CE-24, CE-33 and CB-5 skills. Percentage: 15%.
Those students who do not pass the controls in continuous evaluation of practices and bibliographic work will take a practice exam in the classroom (percentage 45%).
