Examination Methods

Written exam with exercises and questions with multiple responses on the arguments of the program of the course.

Typically the exam consists of 16 questions, for each question a correct response provides 2 points, while incorrect or missing answers provide 0 point. In this way the maximal score is 32/30 which corresponds to 30 e lode.

The exam is the same for students that have attended classes and for those who have not attended.

Due to the Coronavirus pandemic, and in accordance with the University of Verona guidelines, during ​the 2020 summer session the assessment modality will be modified and the exam will be an online oral exam. We use ZOOM and you need to show me your ID.
