Offered under the English Friendly modality, this course provides students with the option to follow the course in Spanish but with materials and documentation provided in English to support their learning. Additionally, students will have the opportunity to attend tutorials in English and can opt to submit their assignments, presentations, and other evaluation materials in English. In the first continuous assessment period, to pass the course, a minimum score of 5 is required in both the practical assignments (group or individual) and possible individual theoretical tests. Both parts (theory and practice) must be approved separately to calculate the final grade. If one part is not approved, the final grade will be the mark obtained in the non-approved part. If both parts are not approved, the final grade will be the average of both parts, resulting in a fail. In the second assessment period, the evaluation will be based on a written theoretical/practical test that assesses the degree of acquisition of the course competencies. The final grade of the course will be based on the mark obtained in this final evaluation. During evaluations, no materials other than those explicitly indicated by the professor are allowed. The possession and use of electronic devices during evaluations, including mobile phones and tablets, is strictly prohibited. The mere possession of such devices, as well as unauthorized notes, books, folders, or other materials during evaluations, will result in the immediate removal of the student from the exam, and the incident will be reported to the corresponding academic authority for further action as set out in the Guidelines for Action in Cases of Plagiarism, Copying, or Fraud in Exams or Evaluations, approved by the Permanent Commission of the Government Council on January 29, 2015. |
