Examination Methods

Students are required to attend at least 70% of class hours of the course

The assessment is divided into two parts: the first consists in a multiple choice questionnaire of about twenty items with scores diversified based on significance of the topic. The first part is considered passed obtaining at least 50% + 1 of the available total score. The second part of the assessment consists in a written project of a teaching intervention on an assigned topic that will be evaluated out of thirty on the basis of the relevance and completeness. Passing the first part (multiple choice questionnaire) is a necessary requirement to have an evaluation also of the second part. The overall evaluation will be made by attributing 50% to the grading from multiple choice questionnaire and 50% to the project of a teaching intervention.
