Teaching methodology:
Theoretical classes: 2:30 hours/week
Practical classes: 1 weekly hour (2 hours every 2 weeks)
Evaluation:
- 2 compulsory assignments (Hypermedia project 30%, 3D Animation project 30%).
Students are expected to achieve at least a 40% of the mark for each part.
On the contrary, the student will get the mark of the failed part as the final mark.
For both projects, there will be a delayed deadline (only for those students who haven't passed the project) that will allow the students to improve the project mark. In these cases, there will be a penalty factor.
- At the end of some theoretical classes, there will be some exercices (40% of the mark). In some cases, the exercise submission will be during the week. In case that a student doesn't do the 80% of the exercices, this activity will be graded with a 0.
In case that a student doesn't achieve a mark of 5/10, he/she will have to do a final exam and the grade of this part will be the one obtained in the exam.
Specific criteria for the "No show" grade:
If any of the assignments isn't delivered, the final grade will be "No presentat".
Single Assessment:
The unique evaluation is given by a final exam (40%) and the two compulsory assignments (Hypermedia project 30%, 3D Animation project 30%) that have to be submitted by the date of the final exam.
Minimum requirements to pass:
To pass the course, a minimum grade of 5.0 must be obtained
