Métodos de ensino e atividades de aprendizagem

Continuous evaluation

Theoretical component (TP):
- 1 minitest (MT)
- 2 oral presentations (AP)

Pratical component (PL):
- 1 hands-on project (PP)

Please note:
The 2 oral presentations and the hands-on project shall be conducted as group work.


Evaluation in exam season:
- 1 written test (TE)
- 1 hands-on project (PP)

Please note:
In exams season (first/second), the hands-on project shall include not only the design of a given medical device, but also the analysis of its limitations and evolution potential. During this season, individual works will be allowed. The oral presentation is mandatory.

Tipo de avaliação

Distributed evaluation without final exam

Componentes de Avaliação

Designation	Peso (%)
Apresentação/discussão de um trabalho científico	40,00
Trabalho laboratorial	40,00
Teste	20,00
Total:	100,00

Componentes de Ocupação

Designation	Tempo (Horas)

Obtenção de frequência

Continuous assessment in classroom context. 
Minitest, presentations and discussions (theoretical component) + work report and presentation of hands-on project (pratical component)

Minimum classification required for approval: 9.5 points

There will be a possibility to resit the written minitest, i.e., in the first exams season - the best score will prevail

Fórmula de cálculo da classificação final

Continuous evaluation:

Final classification = 0.20*MT + 0.20*AP1 + 0.20*AP2 + 0.40*PP


Evaluation in exam season:

Final classification = 0.40*TE + 0.60*PP
