In addition, communication skills for information, ideas, problems and solutions in the field of engineering and society in general will be developed through documentation delivery processes or oral presentations.

With regard to the organization of work, collaboration and teamwork will be encouraged through the design of the practices themselves.

The development of expository classes in large groups, as well as in small groups, will be focused on promoting quality teaching, prioritizing activities that promote inclusive and equitable learning, SDG-4.

In activity A1 the theoretical contents of the subject will be developed and the students will complete questions and exercises proposed by the teacher.

In addition to exposing the theoretical contents of the subject, the ability to collect and interpret data and manage complex concepts within Telematics Engineering will be developed and enhanced, in order to make judgments that imply reflection on ethical and social issues.

In activity A2 the practical contents of the subject will be developed and the teacher will verify the use of the students.

In addition, work in a collaborative environment will be encouraged, as well as the mix with the communication of results, with special emphasis on the need for continuous training typical of activities related to telecommunications throughout their professional life independently.

In activity A3, exercises and details of the subject that students consider more complex will be solved.

In order to complete and update the training and obtain general, transversal and/or specific competencies defined for this activity, such as the value of continuous training, entrepreneurship or the review of technological innovations in the matter.

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

At the end of the semester, the student body will be able to choose between the modalities: continuous evaluation or single test.

Continuous assessment.

The continuous evaluation will be carried out according to the activities described in the "Methodology and activities" section, in addition to those described in the "Detailed description of the Continuous Evaluation" section, following the weights of each aspect detailed in the previous table.

To pass the subject, the student body must obtain a score equal to or greater than 5 out of 10 in the total calculation of the evaluated aspects, as long as a score equal to or greater than 4 has been obtained in each of these aspects. In the case of not having obtained a grade equal to or greater than 5 out of 10 in the total calculation, or equal to or greater than 4 in any of the evaluated aspects, to pass the subject it is mandatory to opt for the evaluation with a single test.

single test

In the single test modality, an exam will be carried out on the day set for the subject within the exam period, which will cover all the contents of the subject, ensuring that the student body has acquired the skills and learning outcomes established for the exam. same. The weight that will be assigned to each of its two parts will be the following:

Part 1. Attendance and participation, theoretical concepts of the subject and completion of work, cases or exercises -S1, S2 and S3-: 70%.
Part 2. Laboratory/computer practices -S4-: 30%.
The specific conditions, as well as the material and documentation that may be used in the single test will be those established by the person responsible for the subject.

To pass the subject, the student body must obtain a grade equal to or greater than 5 out of 10 in each of the two parts of this test.

Students who have passed aspect S4 of laboratory/computer practices of the subject through continuous assessment, with a score equal to or greater than 5 out of 10, will not have to take the part corresponding to this aspect in the exam, applying the same qualification obtained in the continuous evaluation of said part.

The parts passed in each call will be kept until the end of the course.

Detailed description of the Continuous Assessment

For those students whose evaluation is carried out globally, it will be based on monitoring and carrying out the activities included in the four categories presented in the evaluation system, which make up the total of the evaluable elements of the subject:

S1: Attendance and participation, 10%.
S2: Theoretical concepts of matter, 30%.
S3: Carrying out work, cases or exercises, 30%.
S4: Laboratory practices, 30%.
Each of these blocks will be detailed in the following sections.

S1. Attendance and participation -10%-

In this section all the competences of the subject will be evaluated.

The positive evaluation of this section, will mean that the student has achieved all the skills and all the learning outcomes of the subject.

This aspect will be valued taking into account the attendance and participation in large group lectures, small group classes -laboratory practices- and group tutorials in which seminars are attended, or other activities organized by the Department of Engineering of Telecommunications, the E. P. S. de Linares, or the University of Jaén and that are recommended by the professor responsible for the subject.

Bearing in mind that the S1 aspect represents 10% of the total grade for the subject, which would correspond to one point over the total grade for the subject, the evaluation is divided into two parts: attendance and participation. Thus, 0.5 points are assigned for the attendance part and another 0.5 points for the participation part.

At the beginning, in the attendance part, each student will have the total score -0.5 points-, this being reduced when any of the following situations occur -this score can never be less than 0-:

Failure to attend lectures in large groups, without justified reason, for a number of times greater than 33% of them, will lead to a penalty of 0.2 points of the total S1.
Failure to attend classes in small groups, without justified reason, for a number of times greater than 33% of them, will lead to a penalty of 0.2 points of the total S1.
Failure to attend lectures in a large group or in a small group, without justified reason, for a number of times greater than 50% of them, will lead to the total loss of the attendance score of S1 -0.5 points-.
In the same way, for the participation part, each student will have the total score -0.5 points-, modifying it for the following reasons:

Obstructing class and/or laboratory work, whether by the teacher or by classmates, will entail a penalty that can range from 0.1 to 0.5 points of the S1 participation grade - the participation grade can never be be less than 0-.
Non-attendance to the activities programmed within the collective tutorials (such as seminars, etc.), will entail a penalty in the S1 participation qualification of between 0.1 and 0.3 points -the participation qualification can never be less than 0-.
The non-delivery of a task that includes the evaluation during the semester will lead to a penalty in the participation grade of S1 of 0.1 points -the participation grade can never be less than 0-.

S2. Theoretical concepts of the subject -30%-

In this section all the competences of the subject will be evaluated.

The positive evaluation of this section, will mean that the student has achieved all the skills and all the learning outcomes of the subject.

The evaluation of the theoretical concepts will be carried out through theory evaluation tests solved through the virtual teaching platform, or by solving questions raised in class by the teacher.

Both types of tests are intended to demonstrate that the student has assimilated the knowledge taught in the subject.

Theory assessment tests

These tests will be individual and to be carried out through the virtual teaching platform. Its format and content to be evaluated will be communicated to the students before it is carried out, and may be adapted to the progress of the subject, agenda, classroom availability, etc.

These tests will be carried out once the last subject to be evaluated has been completed and at least one calendar week has elapsed since the last theory session for that subject. This will be modified for the last test that will be carried out, if possible, in the last school week.

Each test will be evaluated separately and the student will be able to obtain a grade between 0 and 10 points. The weight of each test in the final evaluation will be different.

The score to be obtained will be between 0 and 10, correspondingly extrapolated to the range between 0% and 15%, this resulting value coinciding with the total assessment of the theoretical concepts section of the subject. The remaining 15% will be assessed through the theoretical questions raised in the final test.

S3. Carrying out work, cases or exercises -30%-

In this section all the competences of the subject will be evaluated.

The positive evaluation of this section, will mean that the student has achieved all the skills and all the learning outcomes of the subject.

In each exercise the following aspects will be assessed:

Mastery of operational knowledge of the subject.
Structure in the approach of the problem and its resolution.
Resolution: type of solution, justification and correction.
Originality: no exercise will be valued whose resolution has been used in the same way or in a very similar way in another course, in class or by other students.
Spelling, format and presentation of the document.
Each exercise will be evaluated from 0 to 10 and the total score will be the arithmetic mean of all of them, which will be extrapolated to the range between 0% and 15%. The remaining 15% will be evaluated through the exercises proposed for resolution in the final test.

S4. Laboratory practices -30%-

In this section all the competences of the subject will be evaluated.

The positive evaluation of this section, will mean that the student has achieved all the skills and all the learning outcomes of the subject.

The practices will be mandatory for the student, which does not necessarily imply attendance, which is valued in another of the evaluation sections of the subject.

The practices can be done individually or in pairs. Doing it in pairs does not necessarily entail the achievement of the same grade by both students.

The criteria that will be followed for the evaluation of the internship work will be the following:

Attitude and effort shown throughout the work.
Application of specific knowledge to practice.
Analysis/synthesis capacity.
Ability to draw conclusions.
Overall quality of work.
Technical rigor.
Operation, realization and documentation of codes and programs.
Presentation, organization, grammatical correction, spelling and cleanliness in reports and papers.
To obtain the evaluation of each practice, the following requirements must be met:

The teacher's approval of the work done. A practice that does not have the approval of the teacher will not be evaluated, and its score will be 0.
The delivery of all the material required in the practice: the delivery of the material required in each practice, outside the stipulated deadlines, will entail a penalty in the evaluation of that practice that can go from one point, for the works delivered with less than one week late, up to 5 points for those delivered more than a month late. The works not delivered will have a grade of 0.
Achievement of all the functional objectives of the practice.
Respond correctly to the questions raised by the teacher about the practice.
Carry out all the modifications proposed by the teacher to verify that the appropriate skills have been acquired, the object of the practice.
Failure to meet any of these requirements will lead to a decrease in the qualification of the practice, which will be evaluated from 0 to 10.

In the event that an evaluation test is planned in practice, its grade will be averaged with that of the rest of the material to be evaluated.

The total evaluation of the practices section will be the result of the weighted average of these scores with their corresponding factor.

The final score to be obtained will be between 0 and 10, correspondingly extrapolated to the range between 0% and 30%, this resulting value coinciding with the total assessment of the practices section.
