Assessment methods
The examination is oral, and involves the presentation of a subject of your choice and the verification of
- basic knowledge related to the institutional programme: the verification is carried out on the basis of the topics covered in the lesson and on the basis of the recommended bibliography
- the ability to understand the problems faced during the lessons
- knowledge of the discipline as a whole
- the ability to frame the problems studied in their context, and to discuss them critically
- the quality of oral expression and the ability to construct a logical argumentative discourse.
The final evaluation will follow these guidelines:
- insufficient: lack of basic knowledge and inability to produce a correct interpretation of texts and/or problems
- sufficient: possession of basic knowledge; interpretation predominantly correct, but conducted with imprecision and little autonomy
- good: possession of intermediate level knowledge; fully correct interpretation, but not always precise and independent
- excellent: possession of high level knowledge; interpretation of problems not only correct but conducted with autonomy and precision. Excellent oral expression skills
