    EVALUATION*

    The academic assessment and final grade for this subject will be calculated in accordance with official regulations (60% EF + 40% CC) by taking into account the average of a single exam at the end of the semester and the tutorial grade, weighted 60% and 40% respectively. Continuous assessments consist of 3 to 6 assignments. Assessments may be scheduled unannounced by the instructor. The average of these assessment grades taken during tutorial sessions, plus the attendance grade, will be used as the CC grade.
