Evaluation Methodology:
The teaching methodology of the CU is expositive. The assessment of student learning is done on a periodic evaluation system, with the realization of 2 individual midterm (40%, each one) and 1 group work (20%). The group works must be original and must undergo the plagiarism control UMa. In the reassessment period it?s possible to recover only the grade of an individual midterm (40%) of the normal evaluation period. The group work component is not recoverable in the reassessment period. The reassessment periods are subject to minimum grade criteria (8 points). In the reassessment period the result of the evaluation is identical to the result of the examination. Student attendance is mandatory.
