Examination Methods

1. Assessment of the presence (70%) and verification of the mastery level of practical exercises. Mastery must be considered as operational knowledge of the principles and rules of the different activities and execution of the main movement patterns according to own motor skills.
2. Written tests for intermediate assessment of theoretical modules and final interview. Verifications will consist of: - two multiple-choice tests; - one completion test; - one open-response test. In lack of the process assessment, the only final oral examination will be adopted.
3. All point 1 and 2 contribute to the definition of the final evaluation.

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