Due to the current emergency health situation, in the 2020-21 academic year students will be able to consult their teachers in individual and/or group tutorials if they have any questions or queries on subject-related issues. Students will receive a schedule for these tutorials at the start of the course and be informed what form they will take (i.e. whether they will be held face-to-face, online, via email or on Moodle, etc.) |

Other comments and second exam session |
No late assignments will be accepted. No tests/exams will be taken outside scheduled dates and times, unless properly justified. In cases where results are borderline, regular attendance (above 80%) and active participation in class discussions may be taken into consideration, at the tutor's discretion. Segona Convocatòria will consist of a written exam worth 100% which will include questions and exercises on all the topics covered in the course. Students will not have to write the final report for segona convocatòria. This teaching guide is provisional only. If any health emergency arises it will be adapted in order to comply with the directives issued by the competent bodies. Any modification will be announced via the news forum on the Moodle online campus. |
