Examination Methods

The evaluation adopts a blended approach. During the lessons, some activities aimed to formative evaluation are proposed to students and a summative evaluation examination is administrated ad the end of the lessons time.
The activities aimed to formative evaluation (even though they are related to classroom dynamics) are available on Moodle platform, also to non-attending students. They do not imply a punctual evaluation, but only a formative feedback by the teacher. The results of these activities give rise to the construction of an evaluation portfolio that is discussed during the final examination. The evaluation portfolio has to be composed by at least 50% of the proposed activities.
The summative evaluation derives from an oral examination during which the student discusses him/her formative path (included in the evaluation portfolio).

As an alternative, the student can choose to be evaluated without preparing an evaluative portfolio. In this case, the exam will be oral and it will focus on the entire program.

The evaluation criteria are the following:
- depth and range of knowledge (does the student know the arguments of the program?)
- capacity of applying knowledge to specific managerial issues (is the student able to discuss the ethical dimension of managerial issues?)
- written and oral language skills (does the student express her/himself in a correct way?)
- completeness of learning path (Is the student able to discuss the different topics of the course? And to link them to each other?)

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