Evaluation systems and criteria

In person

The subject has a particularly practical character so there is a need to attend class in person. The evaluation of this subject is global, although we teach it in 2 learning blocks: ICT (Information and Communication Technologies) and SO (School Organization). Therefore, in order to pass the subject, the student must demonstrate that he has reached a minimum level of the learning outcomes of each block. Thus, when the student has passed the 2 blocks, we can assign the overall mark taking into account the weighted weight of the blocks.

Different evaluation activities and evaluation systems will be used: learning dossier, group research work, seminars, oral presentations, debates, written and audiovisual productions, objective tests, activity design, self-evaluation and co-evaluation. The evaluation will be continuous. Teamwork, involvement and participation of the students will be valued. In order to obtain the final mark for each block, we will take into account group productions (45%), an individual test on learning and learning (35%), and self-evaluation and co-evaluation (20%).

The Teaching and Learning process of each block (TIC-OE) is guided, continuous and accompanied. It took place first in person and then online due to the Covid-19 Pandemic. During this process, self-assessments, co-assessments and group productions are carried out.

The individual tests in each block about learning and on learning will be online questionnaires. Detail dates:

  • The individual OE test will be on Tuesday, May 19 at 8:30 a.m. (1st call).
  • The individual ICT test will be on Tuesday, May 19 at 10 am (1st call).
