Mixed tests
Description
The student can ask the teacher for individual tutoring to academic guidance or technical actions, as well as the feedback on the subject in the development of any of the activities proposed during the course.

The modality of the subject is "English Friendly", so, if any student needs it, these sessions can be held in English.

Assessment
  Description Qualification
Laboratory practicals Each practice will be assessed with activities that the student will have to carry out according to the teacher's instructions 20%
Problem solving, classroom exercises 15%
Assignments 25%
Mixed tests Periodic tests will be carried out to assess the follow-up that the student makes of the contents of the subject, being necessary to obtain a minimum of 30% in each one, in order to add the rest of the qualifications obtained during the course. 40%
 
Other comments and second call
The modality of this subject is English Friendly, so that, if any student wishes, mixed tests and others can be taken in English.


In the second call, only the mixed tests not passed in the first call can be recovered. The same qualification criteria will be applied as in the first call.
