Evaluation Methodology
The evaluation will be expressed through the following criteria:
Participation in class – 50%
Research Work – 50%

During the continuous assessment period, the student is exempt from the exam if s/he obtains a classification greater than or equal to 10 points in the aforementioned criteria. Participation in class is assessed by answering a series of class-questions (QA), the answers to which must be submitted at the end of each class. During the exam period, the student only has the opportunity to complete the theoretical component, replacing the QA, by taking a written test. Research work will be assessed through a written work (35%), as well as through an oral presentation (15%).
The ratings of the assessment elements are expressed on a full numeric scale from zero (0) to twenty (20).
