Obtenção de frequência
Option 1
Distributed evaluation WITHOUT final exam
1 tests (50%) + 2 lab reports (40%) + 3 seminar reports (10 %)
- Test have minimum score ≥ 8.5/20
- No consultation allowed
- No minimum score for lab reports.
- Group work.
- There's no recap of reports.
- Failing to deliver an evaluation element implies "zero" score on
that component
Option 2:
Distributed evaluation WITH final exam
(writen or oral, to be decided)
Final grade ≥ 9.5/20 val is mandatory, regardless of the evaluaion option.
Fórmula de cálculo da classificação final
Option 1Distributed evaluation WITHOUT final exam
NF = 0.50xT + 0.30xL + 0.10xSwhere:
NF - final grade
T - test grade
L - average lab report grade
S - average seminar report grade
Option 2
Distributed evaluation WITH final exam
NF =0.70xE + 0.30xL
where:
NF - final grade
E - exam grade
L - average lab report grade
Avaliação especial (TE, DA, ...)
Working Students, Federated Athletes, Student's Unions Leaders and Students under the Law of Religious Freedom must contact the professor by the end of the second week of the semester, to present their relevant specificities, as provided for in the respective diplomas.
