It will be necessary to pass both parts of the evaluation: written exam and assignments. All the students who can’t attend class for justified reasons must notify the teacher in order to find an alternative way to make up for the lack of attendance. The evaluation process will consider the following factors: -Theoretical and practical works developed along the course. -Work presentation. - Active participation in the class. -Written multiple-choice test about the theoretical contents worked in class. -Practice test based on the musical dossier worked in class: singing and playing recorder. -Correct oral and written expression. -Correct Interpretation of songs. 8. Students in special situations Students who do not attend class regularly for a particular situation (work, health...) will have to perform some specific actions to overcome the subject. These students must develop all the activities that are required. The activities will be sent by email according with the agreements reached with the teacher. The ideal situation is that the students will take the same written and practical tests than the rest of the class for their final assessment. If not possible, the teacher and the student have to make an agreement in order to perform a way to overcome the subject. It will be necessary that those who, by their personal situation, should know that they will not be able to attend class, advise as soon as possible and get in touch with the teacher in order to deal an action plan. 9.
