Grading
Minimum of 5 on the average mark of different evaluation activities
Specific criteria for the "No show" grade:
Those students that do not hang in the reports for each category in the established delivery time will take a No Show (NP) mark.
Single Assessment:
Final oral exam.
Minimum requirements to pass:
Per considerar superada l’assignatura, caldrà obtenir una qualificació mínima de 5.0
Mentorship
There will be specified weekly time frames for on-line tutorships (via GoogleMeet or any other platform approved by UdG). Electronic mail can be also used to solve questions or doubts and set tutorship appointments out of the specified times frames.
Communication and interaction with students
Communication with students will be via e-mail and the News forum of the course’s Moodle. Individual on-line meetings will be possible for a personalised monitoring.
Remarks
It is recommended to do not leave all the assignments for the end of the semester
Design Amendment
Amendment of activities:
As the course is already prepared for on-line teaching, no modification of the teaching activities is foreseen.
Amendment of the assessment:
As the course is already prepared for on-line teaching and evaluation, no modification of the evaluation activities is foreseen.
Mentoring and communication:
If the evolution of the pandemic results in a less restrictive scenario, the course will continue under the same terms and conditions except for the tutorships, which might take place on-site for on-site students.
