The evaluation system of the subject will have a mixed character, in accordance with the following criteria:

The final grade will correspond to the value of the average of the tests carried out and approved, taking into account their weighting, which will represent 80% of the final grade, plus 20% corresponding to the grade obtained during the practices and project.

The same procedure described will be followed to globally qualify the subject that in the ordinary call, adding the practice grade with the group project weighted to 20% in case of passing the extraordinary exam test. There will be only one exam for all students ( not parts) with questions of all the course, that should be pass with more than 5 points obtained from an exam whose maximum mark will be 10 points.

Other comments and second call
The evaluation system of the subject will have a mixed character, in accordance with the following criteria: Continuous evaluation of the student's knowledge throughout the course will be done through the individual performance of the mixed tests and the work requested during the laboratory and computer practices (In certain situations they may be presented and evaluated in teams). The continuous evaluation through the exercises in face-to-face activities can not be substituted in any case by the external realization of works or exercises and presentation to the teacher. Method of global qualification of the subject: To be able to pass the subject it is necessary that the grade of the tests that are made throughout the course, which are scored from 0 to 10 points, is equal to or greater than 5 points. Only in the case of having these tests approved can you add the corresponding grade to the practices. In the case of suspending any of these tests, you must re-perform a test that understands the concepts that have not been passed. If the marks of the tests obtained during the continuous evaluation does not arrived to 5 points (out of 10), the final grade of the subject will correspond to the failed part. Not average will be done with a failed part. If the student does not pass the subject in the ordinary call, to pass the subject must pass the final test that will include the set of the topics explained in the subject. To do this you must obtain more than 5 points in a qualified exam on a scale of 0 to 10. In no case the note of the partial tests done during ordinary period will be saved to average the final extraordinary test. The final grade will correspond to the value of the average of the tests carried out and approved, taking into account their weighting, which will represent 80% of the final grade, plus 20% corresponding to the grade obtained during the practices and project. Second or extraordinary test. The same procedure described will be followed to globally qualify the subject that in the ordinary call, adding the practice grade with the group project weighted to 20% in case of passing the extraordinary exam test. There will be only one exam for all students ( not parts) with questions of all the course, that should be pass with more than 5 points obtained from an exam whose maximum mark will be 10 points.
