Assessment
  Description Qualification
Problem solving, classroom exercises The structure, quality, clarity, correct use of specific terminology and correctness in carrying out the proposed activities will be assessed.
These practical contents will be evaluated through written tests (to be carried out together with the evaluation of the theoretical contents), as well as through the exercises collected by the teacher in class (in cases where the teacher decides so). The grade obtained in the set of tests referring to practical content (problems/exercises, cases and exams) will represent 35% of the student's final grade.
35%
Case study The structure, quality, clarity, originality, correct use of specific terminology and correctness in carrying out the proposed activities will be assessed.
The student's oral expression capacity will also be taken into account (in cases in which the teacher decides that oral presentations be made). The grade obtained in the set of tests referring to the practical content (problems/exercises, cases and exams) will represent 35% of the student's final grade.
35%
Tutorship of group Attendance at these tutorials will be taken into account as well as participation in follow-up activities. To do this, attendance and the notes and observations taken by the teacher will be monitored. These tutorials can also be used for oral presentation of cases. 5% of the student's final grade

Mixed tests They refer to written tests (exam type) on theoretical content. The theoretical contents will represent 60% of the student's final grade. 60%
 
Other comments and second call

To pass the subject it is necessary to obtain a grade of at least 4 points in each of the written theoretical tests, as well as a minimum final grade of 5 points throughout the course (after weighting the grades of the written theoretical tests and of the rest of the activities that make up the continuous evaluation). Those students who have not achieved a final grade of 5 points in the first call must appear for the second call with all the theoretical contents and exercises, keeping the rest of the marks related to the continuous evaluation. In the December call the grade is calculated from a written theoretical-practical test with a maximum of 10 points.

The student who does not participate in any of the evaluation activities will have a score of zero in them, a mark that will be taken into account for the calculation of the final average grade.

During the development of the tests, no material will be allowed to be handled except for a calculator or other material that the teacher has previously indicated can be used. The possession and use of mobile and/or electronic devices is strictly prohibited during the tests. The simple possession of said devices, as well as notes, books, folders or various unauthorized materials during the evaluation tests, will result in the immediate withdrawal of the exam, expulsion from it and qualification as a fail, the incident being communicated to the Academic Authority of the Center to carry out the actions provided for in the Guidelines for Action in Cases of Plagiarism, Copying or Fraud in Examinations or Evaluation Tests, approved by the Permanent Commission of the Government Council on January 29, 2015.
