Aquesta guia docent és orientativa. En el cas de situacions d'emergència sanitària s'adaptarà l'avaluació perquè es pugui dur a terme d'acord amb les directrius que estableixin els organismes pertinents. Qualsevol modificació s'informarà, si escau, mitjançant el fòrum de notícies del campus virtual (Moodle). In all CA tests and Written Commentaries, students must achieve at least a 3/10 in each piece of work, for the CA requirement to have been deemed complete. In other words, a student who has less than a '3.0' in one of the CA tests will be obliged to take the complete Final Exam, in the Segona Convocatoria. If you do not, or cannot, attend the class regularly and consequently do not complete the Continuous Assessment programme satisfactorily, you will have to take the Final Exam, in the Segona Convocatoria. The Final Exam will consist of Theory and Practical sections, of equal weight. There will be questions with short answers of historical context, more extensive written answers of certain theoretical issues. In the Practical section there will be a combination of guided commentaries on specific, previously studied, texts, and essay questions, to test a wider-ranging understanding of the course content. In cases where results are borderline, regular attendance (80%+) and active participation in class discussion may be taken into consideration, at the tutor's discretion. Any instance of plagiarism, copying a text or ANY PART OF A TEXT from another source without proper reference or citation, so that effectively the work of another person is presented as the student's own, will result in the piece of work in which the instance occurs being evaluated as a '0'. This will imply the failure of the CA, and so will require the student to take the Final Exam. A recurrence of plagiarism in the same student's work will result in a '0' - Suspens being given as a final course mark.The use of translation software, other language apps, or another person, to improve the level of a student's writing to an artificially high level, i.e. to a level which is noticeably above their own writing level when they produce work in test conditions in class, is cheating, and so will result in a relevant piece of work being evaluated as a '0'. Consequently, the student will be obliged to go to the Segona Convocatoria. |
