PLEASE NOTE: In order to be admitted to any teaching activities, including those of your choice, you must be enrolled in the academic year in which the activities in question are offered. Students who are about to graduate in the December and April sessions are therefore advised NOT to undertake extracurricular activities in the new academic year in which they are not enrolled, as these graduation sessions are valid for students enrolled in the previous academic year. Therefore, students who undertake an activity in an academic year in which they are not enrolled will not be granted CFU credits.

Didactic methods

The lessons will have a hybrid structure. The first part of the course, which will be mainly based on lectures, will then be flanked by seminar lectures that will allow direct analysis of the sources, their discussion and visits to archives so that it will be possible to become directly aware of historiographic practice relating to the Venetian Republic

Learning assessment procedures

The examination will take place in oral form. Students must demonstrate that they have understood the structures of Venetian history, that they are able to correctly place problems and events, and that they know the most relevant themes of the historiographic debate. The evaluation shall be assigned in 30/30. The examination test will be the same for attending and not attending students.

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

Knowledge of the history of the Venetian Republic and of the chosen book, exposition skills, critical reading skills and participation in the seminar activity will be assessed.

Criteria for the composition of the final grade
