Learning assessment methods

ATTENDING STUDENTS: Attending students will be evaluated in two phases:

- 50% on the basis of special activities in class at the discretion of the commission (for example group projects, presentations, even individual, special essays depending on special guests or professor that may be invited to implement the course)

- 50% on the basis of a multiple choice test composed of 30 questions. Each correct question equals 1 point over 30. No point will be deducted for wrong questions. Please answer all the questions. In order to pass the test you should score at least 18.

BEWARE: At the end of the test, you will get an average grade between the grade you got for the activity you made in class and the test. Remember that in order to get the final grade you have to pass both the class activity and the multiple choice test with a minimum of 18 points over 30 otherwise you will have to retake the part of the examination that you did not pass. If you do not pass the test, any grade you got for the presentation is always safe you should only retake the multiple choice test on another official date for the exam.

BEWARE: In order to be considered attending student you have to attend at least 75% of the classes. 

NON ATTENDING STUDENTS: Short essay on a topic that has been dealt during the course. 350/750 words. You will have three hours to complete the test that is going to be graded as soon as possible by the professors. 

The material for the exam of non-attending students is composed of all documents uploaded on moodle by the professors. You should delve into it and not merely read it (for instance you should search for legislative texts that are mentioned in the uploaded slides). Furthermore, to better understand the issues that we dealt with in class, you should read the suggested reading in the related area of this page.

MARKS: Marks are awarded for individual assessment and declare the level of achievement and the grades of performance and satisfactory or unsatisfactory completion of course objectives:

- (28-30 e lode): Excellent or Outstanding
