Teaching methods
The course is articulated in 20 hours of lessons, in which the linguistic competences are mainly developed, and in 40 hours of laboratory activities, that privilege the communicative competences.
Students are asked to attend a 20-hour propaedeutic course in the first semester.
30 hours of self-learning with multimedia materials in the virtual learning envinroment of the University of Bologna are recommended.
Assessment methods
The students are asked to take a written and an oral exam.
During the course, attending students can take two written mid-term tests (who have an attendance rate of no less than 70% of the lessons). The first mid-term test constitutes 30% of the final grade, while the second mid-term test constitutes 70%. To access the oral exam it is necessary to have at least 18/30 in the average of the written evaluations. If the attending student does not reach at least 18/30 in the average of the assessments of the written tests, he can repeat only the test with a negative result once during the session of the exams. After an attempt to recover a mid-term test, if the test is not sufficient, the total written exam must be taken, i.e. containing all the topics covered in the two mid-term tests. Having passed the two mid-term tests separately or in an integrated way will be a necessary condition to access the oral exam of Russian Language and Laboratory I.
The written test will verify the linguistic skills, in particular elements of morphology and vocabulary (the facsimiles of the tests will be published on the virtual platforms of the University).
The written tests are valid for two sessions of the academic year in which they were held for the course SID.
The oral test focuses on the communicative competence, assessing the ability to speak and understand the topics mentioned above. In particular: the student must be able to introduce himself, to talk about himself and his family, his typical day, his language skills, his study or profession, his interests and the city in which he lives.
