Assessment
Assessment will be continuous and will take into account the student's active participation in the various activities proposed.
The assessment of the course unit is carried out on a continuous basis, through two stages: (i) preparation of a literature review, in the form of a book chapter, in group work (5?6 students); and (ii) oral presentation of the work, with individual assessment.
The weighting of the continuous assessment is as follows:
? Written work (group, 5?6 members): 60%
? Oral presentation of the work (individual): 40%
Each component is graded on a scale of 0 to 20. The final grade for the course is the weighted average of the two components. Students who obtain a final grade of 9.5 or higher are considered to have passed.
Students who do not pass through continuous assessment are subject to assessment during the normal examination period and, if applicable, during the resit period, in accordance with the Academic Regulations of the University of Évora and the academic calendar in place at UÉ.
