Evaluation system

The procedure for evaluation is the following: 

 
  •  A) Evaluación continua (convocatoria ordinaria Junio)
Esta modalidad de evaluación solamente podrá realizarse en la convocatoria de ordinaria de Junio.  

La nota final de la asignatura recogerá el trabajo y conocimientos adquiridos por el alumno a lo largo del curso académico. Constará de los siguientes apartados:

  
1) Pruebas de evaluación periódicas (exámenes): 50% de la nota final
2) Trabajo y exposición de temas propuestos: 30% de la nota final 
3) Resolución de ejercicios y problemas propuestos: 10% de la nota final
4) Realización de prácticas propuestas: 10% de la nota final
 
  • B) Evaluación única (convocatorias ordinaria y extraordinarias)

La asignatura estará sujeta a la evaluación de un único examen final. 
Los alumnos que deseen acogerse a esta modalidad en la convocatoria ordinaria de Junio deberán indicarlo explícitamente en el examen, renunciando con ello a los méritos obtenidos en la modalidad de evaluación continua.
