------------------------
The exam consists in the administration of a written questionnaire with closed and open answers. Correct answers are given and, if necessary, illustrated soon after all written questionnaires have been delivered, and the grade is communicated to the student. Students have the chance to request an oral integration in order to try and improve the grade of the written questionnaire. In some cases, generally in order to understand the reason of an answer, the oral integration can be requested by the lecturer.

------------------------ MM: Lezione ------------------------ The exam will consist of a written test with multiple choice questions and short answer open questions, aimed at verifying the actual learning of the concepts illustrated during the lessons and the ability to implement them in carrying out the professional activity. The contents of the written test will focus on the topics making up the Module program. The evaluation will be expressed in thirtieths and will be determined by the sum of the score assigned to the correct answer for each question contained in the written test. In particular, the answers may be given a different value depending on the difficulty and complexity of the corresponding questions. There are no differentiated examination modalities between attending and non-attending students. ------------------------ MM: Laboratorio ------------------------ The exam will consist of a written test with multiple choice questions and short answer open questions, aimed at verifying the actual learning of the concepts illustrated during the lessons and the ability to implement them in carrying out the professional activity.
