Continuous assessment

4 writing assignments 40%

2 tests 20%

2 quizzes 10%

15 consolidation (homework) assignments 30%

To complete the continuous assessment requirements, students must complete all four writing assignments. Those who fail to complete any of these assignments will not be eligible to pass on the continuous assessment alone. Students must score a minimum of 4/10 on each writing assignment for it to count as completed for continuous assessment purposes.

Plagiarism will result in automatic failure of the specific continuous assessment component of the course in which it is detected. In line with the preceding paragraph, this will also imply automatic failure on the continuous assessment as a whole and the student involved will be obliged to take the Final Exam. Any recurrence of plagiarism in work submitted by the same student will result in the award of a zero grade (${1}isuspens${1}i) for his/her final grade for this course.

The test on copy editing is an obligatory continuous assessment component. Students must score a minimum of 4/10 on this test for it to count as completed for continuous assessment purposes.

The test on style editing is also an obligatory continuous assessment component. Students must score a minimum of 4/10 on this test for it to count as completed for continuous assessment purposes.

For borderline results, regular attendance (>80%), active participation in classroom discussions, and regular completion of the course's consolidation exercises may be taken into consideration at the tutor's discretion.

Final exam

The Final Exam (Segona Convocatòria) will consist of copy editing exercises, style editing exercises, and a written assignment:

Copy editing exercises 30%

Style editing exercises 30%

Writing assignment 40%

The mark achieved by the student in this final exam will account for 100% of his/her overall grade.

If the public health situation requires a reduction in physical attendance, examination will be adapted to comply with the directives issued by the relevant organisations. Any changes will be notified via the news forum on Moodle.
