Each week we will have an hour of tutoring through MS Teams.
There are two opportunities to overcome the subject. Students who do not pass the subject in the first opportunity will be entitled to a second one, which will be the one that appears in their academic record in the event that the grade obtained is higher.
The evaluation system will be as follows:
EXAM 80%
Examination of objective questions (test) or developmental questions.
CONTINUOUS ASSESSMENT 20%
Self-evaluation
In all systems, the following competencies will be assessed: C3, HD2, HD5, HD8,CP2 and CP9.
For cases of fraudulent performance of exercises or tests, the provisions of the "Regulations for the assessment of academic performance of students and the review of qualifications" will apply.
TYPE OF GROUP HOURS FACE-TO-FACE (%)
Asynchronous virtual teaching 48 0%
Synchronous Virtual Tutoring 14 0%
Exam 4 100%
Personal work of the students 84 0%
Tutorials are a useful resource that students should use as many times as necessary. Frequent access to the virtual campus and institutional mail is essential to find out about different issues that occur throughout the course.
The student's personal work is very important, as it is not advisable to leave everything to the last minute.
Tutorials will be given in Spanish.
All the material will be posted on the Virtual Campus.
