Other comments and second exam session

The evaluation is continuous. The practical activities carried out in the classroom (and also independently) will account for 50% of the final grade; the remaining 50% will correspond to the final exam. In order to make the average, it will be essential to approve both parts. In all the tests and activities, the correctness and adequacy of the writings will be evaluated considering the evaluation rubric of oral and written competence approved by the Spanish Language and Literature Teaching Council.

Students must attend at least 80% of the sessions in order to be assessed in the first call. Otherwise, they will have to appear at the second call and deliver all the mandatory practices of the subject (50% theoretical and practical test, 50% practical).
