Metodología docente
The methodology combines Theoretical lessons, Seminars (with 20-30 students in each group) and Laboratory Practicals (the class is divided in small groups). The laboratory practical sessions will take place on 09/30, 10/7, 11/11 and 11/18 from 8am to 12pm (to be determined according to the group) and are mandatory. We will follow a continuous assessment through the delivery of group projects, oral presentations and other evaluations activities. Ultimately, the students knowledge and skills will be evaluated with a final exam.Método de evaluación
Cualquier acto de fraude académico, plagio o uso o mera tenencia al alcance de medios no autorizados en cualquier actividad de
evaluación comportará la calificación de cero (0) en la prueba o entrega afectada. Además, de acuerdo con la normativa de la
Universidad, la posible derivación de los hechos para la apertura de un expediente disciplinario implicará que la asignatura quede en
el estado provisional de "pendiente de evaluación" hasta la resolución del expediente. La gestión de estas incidencias se lleva a cabo
de acuerdo con el Marco de actuación para la integridad académica en la evaluación de la UPC.
A series of exams are used to measure success in achieving the learning objectives of the course. To pass this subject, the student must pass with at least 5 points out of 10. The laboratory practical sessions are mandatory. All exams (Oral + Final) are mandatory, except for the Integration of concepts. In case of not attending an integration of concepts the student will be evaluated with a 0 for that (and only that) integration of concepts.The final grade of the student will result from:
Average of "Integration of Concepts" (10%)
Image analysis (70%)**
Final Exam (PEM) (20%)
Where **Image Analysis:
Group Macro (25%)
Oral Exam (75%)
Students who do not pass the final assessment have the option to recover their final exam grade at the February reassessment. Continuous assessment, including the Oral exam, cannot be recovered, under any circumstances. The student who recovers the final exam will maintain the same continuous assessment grade and this will be combined with the grade of the new final exam in the manner indicated above.
