Evaluation systems and criteria

In person



The evaluation of the subject will take into account progress throughout the academic period. Learning achievement will be weighted based on different assessment activities that will have a varied nature. The percentages are as follows:

  • 10% Assessment tutorials
  • 15%- Reflective practice seminars (individual)
  • 20% Literacy development activity (group)
  • 45% Integrative test (individual)
  • 10% Story Telling (group)

Written activities will be strictly accepted on the day set for delivery. They can be presented on paper or digitally as the case may be. In case of delay they will not be accepted.

IMPORTANT: It is necessary to highlight the consistency of the student's performance in individual and group work, for this reason, if this consistency does not exist, the individual mark will always be prioritized.

If you do not pass any of the skills that are developed in the different assessment activities, you will need to recover them in the second call. For this reason, a suspension will appear in the academic record of the first call. If the skills not achieved are recovered, the final mark of the 2nd call will be recalculated with the marks achieved during the course.

Given the nature of this subject and in accordance with General Competence 2 on the correction of oral and written expression in vehicular language,  the spelling criteria in force for the discount of points in the assessment tests are as follows:

  • In written works that have a maximum of 7 pages, 0.1 points will be deducted for missing work if it is a handwritten work, and 0.3 points if it has been written on a computer.
  • In written works of more than 7 pages, 0.1 points will be deducted for errors, whether by hand or by computer.
  • The discount limit is a maximum of 2 points.
