Assesssment methods and criteria:

Classification Type: Quantitativa (0-20)

Evaluation Methodology:
Oral and written presentations of the course syllabus. Application of practical examples to consolidate the theoretical principles. First Assessment Period - 2 tests with theoretical questions and practical problems related to the topics taught in the curricular unit - The objective is to assess theoretical and theoretical-practical knowledge. The student may, during the semester, evaluate his performance and change strategies, if necessary. Weight: 35% each test; Minimum: 8.00; Minimum test average: 9.50 - 1 Group Work with presentation, written and oral, related to the subjects of the curricular unit - its main objective is to assess theoretical and practical knowledge through reports. The weight of the group work in the final classification is 30% It allows the student to develop skills of research, writing, reporting and teamwork. Students with grades greater than 16 are required to take an oral exam.
