C1 CMECES1 That students have demonstrated possession and understanding of knowledge in an area of study that is based on general secondary education, and is usually found at a level that, although supported by advanced textbooks, also includes some aspects that involve knowledge from the cutting edge of their field of study
C4 CMECES4 That students can transmit information, ideas, problems and solutions to both a specialised and non-specialised audience
C5 CMECES5 That students have developed those learning skills necessary to undertake further studies with a high degree of autonomy

Other comments and second call

There will be continuous assessment. The student will pass the course if he/she scores at least 5 out of 10 points. It is required a score of at leat 40% in each of the assessment items.

To this aim, the professor will take into account the continuous work of the students and their results in the tests and practical exams, to see how the competences are acquired by the student. 

In particular, the assessment takes into account:

  1. Two midterm exams. Each test accounts for 35% of the total grade. If a test is passed, the content of this test won't be directly present in the other test. 
  2. Practical exams, which accounts for 20% of the grade. 
  3. Participation, positive attitude and assignment performance in theoretical lectures, practical and problem sessions, seminars and office hours, can account up to 10%. 

During the tests the student is not allowed to use any material, unless the professor explicitly allows it. It is forbidden to use cell phones or any other electronic devices while doing the tests. If a student has notes, books or any other material or device not allowed during the tests, the student will not be able to finish the test and will be expelled from the test and will not pass the exam. Moreover, the Academic Authorities will be informed, so that the normative on Plagiarism and Fraud can be applied.  

Second call.

Those students not passing the course on the first call. They will have an exam that could be divided in two parts. The tests passed in the first call could be taken into account for the grade of the second call.

To pass the course in the second call the student needs to score at least 5 out of 10 points.

Other comments
Once the date of a test is agreed, they cannot be changed. If a student does not attend a test, a score of zero will be assigned and taken into account to compute the global grade. It is recommended that the students have taken mathematics at "Segundo de Bachillerato" level.
