Evaluation

The evaluation system of the Master of Applied Languages is based on continuous assessment. Each subject comprises activities and assignments which candidates will submit during the semester. Active participation in the virtual campus is also taken into account. The number of activities and tasks for each subject varies. The points and percentages awarded to each activity may also vary but no activity will exceed 50% of the overall mark. The points and percentages of each activity and task are published in the virtual campus. Finally, the teacher will supply some feedback on the activities submitted within 15 days after submission.

Students will have to sit for an identity authentication test for each subject in which they are enrolled, on the days announced at the beginning of the semester. Students can take this text either face-to-face at the UdL, or accessing the videoconference systems used by the University.
