Evaluation Methodology
The assessment of this course unit focuses on the practical skills acquired and is conducted through exams performed using the software tools introduced in class.
1. Continuous Assessment
The continuous assessment model consists of two mandatory in-person evaluation components:
Mini-test (A): Focusing on initial core concepts (25% weighting).
Practical Test (B): Focusing on the comprehensive syllabus and skill integration (75% weighting).
The Final Grade (FG) is calculated as follows:
FG=(A×0.25)+(B×0.75)
Note: To pass via continuous assessment, students must achieve a minimum final grade of 9.5 out of 20.
2. Final Exams (Normal and Resit Seasons)
Students who do not opt for continuous assessment or those who fail to achieve the minimum grade of 9.5 will be admitted to the Final Exam.
Structure: A comprehensive practical exam covering the entire syllabus.
Grading: 0 to 20 points (100% of the final grade).
