Other comments and second exam session

Els elements d'avaluació de l'assignatura són: proves dels continguts adreçats a les clases de teoría i problemes, práctiques de laboratoris i els seus estudis previs i proves práctiques

Cal obtenir una nota mínima en cadascun dels elements d'avaluació, per poder fer mitjana i aprovar l'assignatura. Si algun element d'avaluació no arriba a la nota mínima, la nota final de l'assignatura no podrà ser superior a 4,5. La nota mínima és la mateixa en 1a i 2a convocatòria.

L'avaluació en 1a convocatòria serà de forma continuada.

A la 2a convocatoria no es repetirá les pràctiques a laboratoris. L'evaluació de la resta de parts es fará de forma similar als de la 1a convocatiria. Només caldrà examinar-se dels elements d'avaluació que no hagin obtingut la nota mínima en 1a convocatòria. En cas de presentar-se a 2a convocatòria, la nota final computable serà la de 2a convocatòria

Durant la realització de les proves escrites, no es permet la utilització de cap tipus de dispositiu electrònic (calculadores, ordinadors, tauletes, telèfons, rellotges, etc).

En cas de detectar còpìa en alguna activitat d'avaluació, la nota de l'acta d'aquella convocatòria serà 0, i caldrà tornar a realitzar totes les proves avaluatives a la segûent convocatòria
