Examination Methods
The exam consists of two written tests. One test (mainly aimed to verify the student skills) will consist of exercises which have to be taken with the aid of a computer connected to the university network. The other test (mainly aimed to verify the student knowledges) will consist of questions with free-text answers and/or multiple-choice questions. Each exercise /question of both tests will be associated with a score (reported in the text of the exam). The maximum score achievable for each test is 16 points. In order to pass the course, the student must obtain a minimum score of 9 points in each test. The final grade corresponds to the sum of the scores obtained in the two tests up to a maximum of 30. In order to obtain the grade of excellence (30 cum laude) the student should provide correct and comprehensive answers for all the questions of the two tests (the sum of the scores obtained for the two tests should be 32 points).
The two tests will be delivered in presence mode.
The remote mode is however guaranteed for all students who request it in the academic year 2020/21
