Assessment. June Call
Blocks 1, 2 and 3 grades will be discarded, and a new grade (60%) will be
based on the performance in a practical exam to be carried out in the lab,
and solved in Google Colab. The exam may include some questions about
theoretical concepts.
In addition to the previous practical exam, students will be able to hand in a
new final project (40%).
They can opt for just taking the exam, carrying out a new project, or both.
Any existing grade will be replaced by that achieved in the new
assessmnent items taken during the May call.
