Assessment methods

The exam at the end of this course aims to evaluate the achievement of the didactic objectives exposed during the lessons according to the program.

Being an integrated course, the exam includes a test for each of the 7 modules: all the tests must be carried out and passed in the same appeal; the insufficiency of a single test leads to the repetition of the entire exam in one of the subsequent appeals.

With regard to the method of the exam, not being able to foresee the evolution of the COVID pandemic and considering that many students are not residents of Bologna, it will take place on the date established, at the same time, both in presence and by distance, with a written test. The student can choose which of the two tests to enroll in Alma Esami. To establish the final mark, since each of the 7 modules has 1 CFU, the sum of the individual votes will be made and the mark will be defined in thirtieths with a mathematical equation. Praise will be given if all 7 individual tests are error-free.

The student will receive the mark on Alma Esami; it will be reported by e-mail and the student can possibly refuse the vote within 48 hours by communicating it by email to Prof. Ferri; otherwise it will be tacitly accepted and will then be recorded.

 

The final exam is a multiple choice quiz tests. It contains ten multiple choice questions for each module. The score is +1 for correct answer, 0 for wrong or absent answer.
The available time for the written test is 70 minutes. During the test the use of support material such as textbooks, notes, computer supports is not allowed.
The maximum score obtainable by providing all correct and complete answers is therefore equal to 30 cum laude.
The test is passed with a minimum score of 18/30.
