In person

Attendance at master classes is not compulsory.

Attendance at the case methods and practices is mandatory. Failure to attend, due to health reasons or force majeure, must be justified in writing.

An attendance control will be carried out by signature in the methods of the case and in the practices.

First call students:

The final mark of the subject will be calculated by adding the marks of:

Continuous assessment mark: 10% of the final mark will consist of continuous assessment through participation and continuous assessment exercises. Participation in class is understood as a positive and active attitude, the contribution of new and interesting concepts, the collaboration between students and answers to questions posed by the teacher or by other students in class.

Practice mark: 20% of the final mark. Attendance is compulsory to pass the global practices as well as the presentation of all the works corresponding to the practices. The unjustified non-attendance or the non-presentation of the works will penalize with the loss of the global mark of the practices, that is, the mark of practices will be zero.
Note of the methods of the case: 20% of the final note. The non-presentation of the works will penalize with the loss of the global note of the methods of the case, that is, the note of methods of the case will be zero.
Exam grade: 50% of the final grade.

Exam: first partial (March) and second partial or final (May-June).
▪ First partial. At the end of March. It will consist of a multiple choice test (correct answer 1 point, incorrect -0.25 points) and a test written on paper to develop topics or solve problems. The weighting of marks is 60% for the multiple choice test and 40% for the written test. Time to complete the exam 60 + 40 minutes in total.

▪ If the first partial exam is passed (mark greater than or equal to 5):

▪ Matter is released.

▪ Second partial. At the end of May (subject taught from the date immediately after the completion of the first partial). It will consist of a multiple choice test (correct answer 1 point, incorrect -0.25 points) and a written test in role of topic development or problem solving. The weighting of marks is 60% for the multiple choice test and 40% for the written test. Time to complete the exam 60 + 40 minutes in total.

▪ If the first partial exam is not passed (mark less than 5, including 4.99):

▪ No matter is released.

▪ The May exam will have two parts:

▪ Second partial. At the end of May or beginning of June. It will consist of a multiple choice test (correct answer 1 point, incorrect answer -0.25 points) and a written test of topic development or problem solving. The weighting of the grade will be 60% of the test grade and 40% of the written part. Time to complete the exam will be 60 + 40 minutes.
▪ Repetition of the first part (modified). It will consist of a multiple choice test (correct answer 1 point, incorrect -0.25 points) and a test written on paper to develop topics or solve problems. The weighting of marks is 60% for the multiple choice test and 40% for the written test. Time to complete the exam 60 + 40 minutes in total.

The final mark of the exam will be the average of the two partials or of the second partial and repetition of the first as long as the mark of each of the two partials is greater than or equal to 5. If the mark of one of the partials does not exceed the 5 the student will have to appear in second call to an exam with the same format but of the global one of the subject.

Students in second or subsequent call:

The notes of continuous assessment exercises, case methods and practices will be saved, although whenever they wish, students can repeat the completion of the same and obtain a new note. On the other hand, students in the second call will take a global final exam. The final mark of the subject will be prepared following the criteria of the first call.

General points to bear in mind about the assessment system:

1. In the second part of the exam, a minimum mark of 5 must be obtained in order to be able to be averaged with the continuous assessment marks (case methods, attitude, practice and mid-term).

2. In the second part of the exam and re-sit of the first part, a minimum mark of 5 must be obtained in each one in order to be able to be averaged with the continuous assessment marks (case methods, attitude, practice and mid-term).

3. The test part of the exams will be questions with 4 answer options, counting +1 for the correct answers and -0.25 for the errors.

4. In the exams, the questions, topics to be developed or problems will mainly cover the material presented in the classroom, both in the master classes and in the case methods, as well as in the practice. However, there will be a minority of questions which cover the recommended bibliography, articles and recommended audiovisual material.

5. Class participation is understood as the contribution of interesting ideas or the raising of pertinent questions that help to improve the quality of the session, whether it is a master classes or case methods.

6. Class attendance:

• Regular attendance at theory classes is recommended.

• Attendance at master classes is not compulsory but attendees will have to abide by the rules indicated by the teachers.

• Attendance at case methods is mandatory as it is evaluated. For this assessment students must present the corresponding work.

• Attendance at practice is mandatory as they are also evaluated. Once again, the corresponding reports must be presented for the assessment.

• Failure to attend the case methods or practices must be due to health or more important reasons and must be justified.
