Assessment

	Description	Qualification	Training and Learning Results
Short answer tests	Adequate kowledge of the theoretical materials of the lecture will be assessed by means of short response questions during the final exam. A minimum mark of 4 over 10 points may be set for this part.	25			C21 C22 C25	D2
Reports / memories of practice	For each lab assignment, the students in pairs, will present an individual written report. The evaluation will be carried out by means of (1) the individual reports and (2) an specific part in the final exam. The weights of parts one and two will be 1/3 and 2/3, respectively.	25			C21 C22 C25	D2
Troubleshooting and / or exercises	In the final exam, there will be a part containing various short numerical problems. A minimum mark of 4 over 10 points may be set for this part.	25		B2	C21 C22 C25
Jobs and projects	The evaluation of supervised group work (C classes) will be carried out through an individual report where each student wll present his/her conclusions and test results.	25		B4 B7	C21 C22 C25

Other comments on the Evaluation
If possible all skills pertaining to this subject will be evaluated in all the various tests and exercises proposed: short answer tests, lab reports, problem solving and projects For those who choose to take the final exam (alternatively to continuous assessment), this will have a weight of 100% of the final grades and will cover all issues dealt with in the theoretical lectures, the problem solving lectures, tutored group work and laboratory. Above the procedure for carrying out the continuous assessment was presented. The final grades will be the result of four equal weight parts, namely - a theoretical test consisting of short questions (25%) to take place during the final exam, - a problem solving test consisting of short numerical calculations (25%) to take place during the final exam, - the completion of the laboratory work and corresponding reports and specific test in the final exam (25%) and - the completion of the proposed tutored group work, its corresponding report and oral presentation (25%) In case a minimum mark was set for any of the parts comprising the overall evaluation and such mark were not achieved, the final grade will be upper bounded by such minimum mark. The grades for the lab. work and group work will only be valid during the current school year. Those students who choose the continuous assessment option shall inform the professor of this during the first few weeks of the school term. The continuous assessment option entails the completion of all activities proposed: lab works and group work, and taking all tests comprising the continuous assessment route. Those students not fulfilling the above will be assessed with the final exam only. A student will be atributed the "no presentado" grade if he or she has not followed the full continuous assessment route and has not taken the final exam. For the retake call (July), the grades obtained in the lab work and group work parts will be kept for those students following the continous assessment route and will only be required to take the theory, problems and lab parts of the new final exam.
