To obtain attendance students may not exceed the maximum number of missed classes, complying with school attendance rules. (attendance registration will be done in every class).
Students will be evaluated by one group assignement (2 students) (TG), and by the participation (P) component, involving several homework problems, attendance and general class intervention.
They must also attend a final exam.
The final score (N), either in the first or second call, will be calculated as follows:
N = 0.05 * P + 0.3 * TG +0.65*NE
Being: NE – exam grade.
OBS: group assignement can not be repeated.
Grades over 18/20 will be subject to an oral discussion.
Students with special status may choose between the normal evaluation mode or "evaluation with final exam", but choice must be comunicated to teachers before the end of september.
Special global examination.
Grades over 18/20 will be subject to an oral discussion.
