Teaching methods and learning activities

Exposition by the lecturers. Exercise sheets will also be available to students, as well as a list of recommended exercises which will tentatively be covered in the practical sessions. The latter will be available in advance, thus encouraging students to prepare for the class. Other materials will be accessible to students, such as quizzes and exams from previous years, solutions and resolutions.

The teachers involved in the class will have regular office hours to help the students and will be available to discuss the students’ performance in quizzes and in class. This should help the students to assess their progress and to promote a timely intervention in case of poor performance.

Evaluation Type

Distributed evaluation with final exam

Eligibility for exams



Students are required to attend at least 8 practical classes/discussion sections. 

The following students will be exempt from the above rule: 
- students having met attendence requirements from the previous academic year in M192; 
- students attending mobility programmes outside of Portugal; 
- students under special clauses which include attendence waiver. 


Calculation formula of final grade

Final exam (for the first and second exam time and for students that are not trying to improve the final grade), where two groups of questions (ut of 3) can be replaced independently of one another, by the scores obtained in two short test:

- the first one, worth 4/20, about the first chapter;

- the second one, worth 8/20, will focus on the second topic of the syllabus.

In no other case will the student be allowed to replace part of the exam by a test.

Any special exam can be either an oral or a written exam. No part of these exams can be replaced by the score obtained in a test.

Examinations or Special Assignments

Any special exam can be either an oral or a written exam. No part of these exams can be replaced by the score obtained in a test.

Special assessment (TE, DA, ...)

Special exams will consist of a written test, which might be preceded by an eliminatory oral test to assess whether the student satisfies minimum requirements to tentatively pass the written test.
No part of these exams can be replaced by the score obtained in a test.

Classification improvement

Exam. For these students it will not be allowed to replace any part of the exam by any test.

Observations

Any student can be asked to do an oral examination in case there are some dougts about the written examination. If such a exam happens it will be worth 50% of the final score.
