Evaluation Methodology
Assessment will be aligned with the learning outcomes defined for the course, with written tests, assignments, practical projects and other assessment methods should be designed to measure the extent to which students have developed the expected competencies and knowledge. Thus the whole assessment process should be focused on verifying that the educational objectives have been achieved.
The assessment method will include individual and group work. In the latter case, where collaboration is essential, there should be an individual oral presentation or defence in which each student explains his/her part of the project, justifies the choices he/she has made and demonstrates knowledge of the concepts. This ensures that individual performance is assessed.
The course content will be assessed as follows:
Objectives 1 to 4) will be assessed by individual written test, questionnaire and/or quizzes and by portfolio, with a weighting of 30 per cent.
Objectives 5 to 7 will be assessed by practical work and oral presentations with a weighting of 35%.
Objectives 8 and 9 will be assessed by simulated situations, discussions, forums and debates, with a weighting of 35%.
Assessment by first attempt examination/resit examination to pass the course or to improve the grade
Written examination 50%
Practical assignment and oral presentation - 50%.
