Assesssment methods and criteria:

Classification Type: Quantitativa (0-20)

Evaluation Methodology:
Classification Type: Quantitative (0-20) Evaluation according to model B of the regulation of evaluation of UMa's learning, namely in normal season: 2 frequencies, 50% for each frequency. The approval of the curricular unit implies approval in both components (minimum 9.5 values). There is the possibility of recovery in the time of appeal / improvement for all components. The final classification is expressed on a scale of 0 to 20 values and is the teacher's responsibility.
