Activitats d'avaluació:

- Assignments: 50% (non recoverable)
- Final exam: 50% (recoverable), minimum of 4/10

The use of AI tools is permitted for information search, computer code generation, the preparation of a first draft of documents to be delivered or presented, and the linguistic improvement of texts.
However, the student is fully responsible for this, and must understand, validate and be able to justify the proposals used through AI. This justification will be verified through specific questions in oral defenses or similar activities; the inability to adequately defend the presented contents will imply a negative assessment in the evaluation of the activity (with a non-pass of the activity or a penalty of the grade).
Regarding the use of AI in writing texts, the student is required to carry out a critical reading of the results, avoiding repetitions and unnecessarily long texts.

Criteris específics de la nota «No Presentat»:
An "absent" mark (NP) will be given to those students who have not delivered the proposed assignments or the final exam.

Avaluació única:
Single-evaluation is not possible in this course

Requisits mínims per aprovar:
The minimum mark to pass the course is 5/10. The final mark will be calculated according to the indicated percentages for each activity type if the mark of the final exam is, at least, 4/10.

Tutorships can be either face-to-face or on-line (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 with students will be via e-mail and the News forum of the course’s Moodle. Individual on-line and face-to-face meetings will be possible for a personalised monitoring.

The use of AI tools is only allowed to improve the spelling, grammar, and clarity of a text
