Other comments and second call | |||
Students must pass both the theoretical (objetive multiple-choice tests) and practical part (tasks and/or presentations) to pass the subject. A minimun of 5 points in both parts is neccesary to calculate the mean. There will be either one or more objective tests, subjected to teachers' criteria depending on the needs of the subject and students' response to on-site lessons. Criteria for the second round of assesment remains the same. It is neccesary to pass both theory and practice but any part already passed during the first round will be kept (students won't have to repeat it). Students results, however, won't be kept from one year to another. During all assessment tasks, students are permitted to use only those materials, tools or resources allowed by the teacher. Any other materials are not permitted. In case of plagiarism, the task will be scored as failed. |
