Evaluation methods and criteria Code, name of evaluation methods, brief description of evaluation methods, criteria, place and period of evaluation Weight 7.1. Evaluation through continuous assessment EM1. Participation and resolution of interactive exercises and case- studies 10% Description: It consists of evaluate the level and quality of student s participation in master lectures, practice lessons, laboratory classes and lectures, as well as exercise an case-studies. Evaluation criteria: The professor will evaluate the students according to the notes of participation and attention. Place and period: At class, during the course. EM2. Individual/autonomous and assisted resolution of case studies 20% Description: It consists of solving theoretical issues or practical exercises which will be done in class.

Curso académico Pág. 3 de 8 Code, name of evaluation methods, brief description of evaluation methods, criteria, place and period of evaluation Weight Evaluation criteria: Each exercise will be ranked from 0 to 10. The mark of this part will be the weighted average of all the exercises done during the course. Place and period: At class, during the course. EM3. Laboratory classes 30% Description: Students will do modelling practices in the computer lab. They will learn how to use demand models, including the design and characterization of networks, the calculation of demand matrices, modal distribution and allocation of routes. Evaluation criteria: Laboratory classes will consist on knowing the modelling tool, which will be evaluated by practice applications of the model network. Then, each student will make a series of case studies, which will be in groups. Place and period: At laboratory classes, during the course EM4. Final exam 40% Description: The final exam will consist of two parts, with a duration of 2 hours. The first part will consist of theoretical or applied questions. The second part will consist of exercises that will include practical problems. Evaluation criteria: Each exercise will be ranked from 0 to 10. The score will be the weighted average of the marks obtained in the exercises. Place and period: To be detered by the Head of Studies Result of the evaluation through continuous assessment The final score will be the weighted average of the results obtained: - For those students who have gone to the 80% of the lessons, the weighted average of the four parts of evaluation seen previously. - For all the students, the score obtained by the evaluation through final exam that will be described next. The subject will be passed if the final score is equal or greater than 5. Those students with a score less than 5 through continuous assessment in the ordinary exaation will not pass the subject and will have another opportunity in the second period exaation (extraordinary), with through final exam evaluation Evaluation through final exam only Description: The exam will be the same final exam done by the students under the evaluation through continuous assessment. Evaluation criteria: Each exercise will be ranked from 0 to 10. The score will be the weighted average of the marks obtained in each exercise. Place and period: To be detered by the Head of Studies. Result of the evaluation through final exam only The final score will be the one obtained in the final exam. The subject will be passed if the final score is equal or greater than Course content Units, sections and descriptors Unit 1. Planning process: objectives and indicators 1.1.

Description of teaching methodology Theory lessons: The teacher will explain the necessary concepts to understand the concepts of the course in order for the student to achieve the expected indicators. The teacher will use appropriate practical examples and logical reasoning to develop the scientific and technical abilities of the student. The participation of students will be encouraged by means of discussions on the topics taught. Practice lessons: Practice lessons will be aimed at the resolution of exercises and case-studies. Practice lessons are intended as a correlation between the content of theory lessons and engineering practice, in order for the student to achieve the ability to apply the acquired knowledge in the future career. The teacher will first solve some exercises and case-studies to show the students how to work on their own later.

5 ESCUELA DE INGENIEROS DE CAMINOS, CANALES Y PUERTOS. Curso académico Pág. 5 de 8 Laboratory classes: Laboratory classes will take place during the course, one to each phase of the supply-offer modelling of transport systems. Independent work: The student shall study the contents explained in theory lessons and shall strive to solve the exercises and case-studies. Professional meetings: Professionals of the transport sector will be invited to give some lectures in application of the issues view at the lessons. Office hours Office hours are intended as a complement for the students to ask questions on the content of the course. Details of office hours are detailed at the beginning of this guide for each teacher. 10.
