Evaluation systems and criteria
In person
First examination sitting:
The grade will be obtained from the final exam, which will be a face-to-face oral and will deal with two sections of the different topics of the programme chosen at random.
During the presentation or at the end of it, questions may be asked to check comprehension of the subject.
When one of the two questions has not been answered, or not fully, so and in the opinion of the teacher it is not gradable, it will lead to the automatic failure of the exam.
Once the final exam for the course has been passed, the grade will be raised by 1 point if the student has passed the partial exam with a grade of 6.
The partial exam will be oral and will be held on 3 November.
Participation in class will be assessed and contribute to the final grade, once the student has obtained the minimum level.
Inclusion on the honour roll will always be at the discretion of the teacher.
Absences from class will be counted as follows: for every 5 absences from class, 1 point will be subtracted from the final grade.
Students can make up for this negative attendance mark by correctly answering the oral questions posed in class each day.
Second examination sitting:
