The evaluation will be carried out via the alF platform in June and, for those who do not pass this exam, in September.

Two forms of evaluation are proposed:
1)  A TEST:

Passing the exam, that will consist of two short questions (to be answered in no more than fifteen lines) and a third question where the student must develop one of two proposed topics. Here there is no limit to the length of the student’s answer.

The exam will last 90 minutes. It is calculated that 15 minutes are needed to answer each of the short questions and 60 minutes to develop the chosen topic.

It will be necessary to access the application by clicking the “Tareas” icon that will appear from 9:30 to 13:30.

2) ALTERNATIVE EVALUATION ACTIVITY:

In order to advance in new methods of distance learning and teaching, we propose as an alternative to the exam, the double activity of recording a Mini-video on one of the main topics of the subject but accompanied by an Essay explaining the results obtained from the research carried out.

This activity is proposed as a substitute of the exam.

1) Test evaluacion criteria: For all three questions a reference to the chapter or summary of the basic book where they can be found, will be given. In this way, if the short questions and/or the topic to be developed are worded in a different way from that used in the title of the chapter where they can be found, they can be easily identified at the time of answering.

To pass the subject, students must achieve a minimum of 5 points out of 10, which will only be obtained if the two short questions are correctly answered. If one of these questions remains unanswered or is answered incorrectly, the topic to be
developed will not be evaluated. The answer to the chosen topic will only serve to increase the student’s mark if he has already achieved a pass mark with his answer to the two short questions.

2) Alternative activity evaluation criteria: The student who takes the substitute activity method will not have to answer  the three questions of the exam. The Mini-video and the Essay replace the three questions and, if evaluated positively, the complementary activity will represent 100% of the final score.

For the evaluation of the mini-video, the CRITERIA indicated in FORMULARIO FOR EVALUATION/NEW EVALUACION in DOCUMENTOS PÚBLICOS folder in the alF platform, will be used.

The Mini-video and the Essay will be evaluated independently and each represents 50% of the final score. 

Both, the Mini-video and the Essay  must be sent according the schedule forseen in the NEW METHODOLOGY: MAKING A A MINI-VIDEO AND AN ESSAY/DOCUMENTOS PÚBLICOS FILE.

In September, the evaluation can only be done through the written exam. Therefore, a student who does not pass the exam substitute activity in June must take the exam in September by answering the three questions.

To pass the test, students must achieve a minimum of 5 points out of 10, which will only be obtained if the two short questions are correctly answered. If one of these questions remains unanswered or is answered incorrectly, the topic to be
developed will not be evaluated. The answer to the chosen topic will only serve to increase the student’s mark if he has already achieved a pass mark with his answer to the two short questions.

The Mini-video and the Essay will be evaluated independently and each represents 50% of the final score.
