Didactic methods

The course is based on interactive and participative teaching. In particular, in the various lessons the concepts will be explored in depth by means of dialogical frontal lessons, also including readings/viewings of texts, case studies and films/documentaries as starting points for a reciprocal maieutic process or specific analyses on the basis of the students' choices. The discussions conducted in class will constitute collective material that will also be made available to non-attending students via the online environment. Individual or small group study will be encouraged, which may conclude with presentations and discussion during the lessons, in addition to the delivery of the relative paper.

Learning assessment procedures

For non-attending students, the exam will be written and will cover all the texts in the program, for which analytical study is required.
For attending students, exam modalities will be defined during the course.

Students with disabilities or specific learning disorders (SLD), who intend to request the adaptation of the exam, must follow the instructions given HERE

Evaluation criteria

The exam tests the in-depth understanding of concepts and the ability to critically rework contents.

Criteria for the composition of the final grade

The grade will be in thirtieths.
