Use of electronic devices during examinations At the beginning of exams, students will be required to turn off completely their electronic devices (either mobile phones, laptops or tablets) and keep them either within their bags or on the instructor's desk. During the exam, it is completely forbidden to have these devices on and answer messages or calls. Failure to follow these regulations will imply that the student will be disqualified and his/her grade will be 0.
FIRST CALL is divided into: 1) Final exam (including practical texts and multiple-choice tests) 30 + 20 = 50% of the final grade 2) Course project (including both the written document in ppt format and the oral presentation): 10% written document + 20% oral presentation = 30% 3) Self-Assessment Tests using ICT submitted via Moodle = 10% 4) Active participation online (weekly assignments) = 10 % The final grade will be the result of the different percentages of the activities mentioned above: 50 + 30 + 10 + 10 = 100 %. Nevertheless, in order to be able to average all the grades earned in the course, students should obtain at least 4,5 in the final exam. Only those students who followed continuous assessment (i.e. self-assessment tests, weekly assignments submitted, written document and oral presentation) will be allowed to take the final exam.
SECOND CALL: If students failed to pass their first call based on continuous assessment, they will have to take just an exam (with practical texts and multiple choice tests about all the contents of the course) for the second call. The result of this exam will determine the final grade of the course. |
