Teaching methods
Participatory frontal lesson on the main theoretical contents
Analysis of real clinical cases/problems through guided classroom work and/or group work with review and integration in plenary.
Assessment methods
Evaluation within the C.I. includes a written test: at least 6 open questions, one of which is calculation.
In-person test: each question will be screened individually and will remain visible only for the scheduled time (the time for each question is proportional to its complexity).
The evaluation is out of 30 [evaluation for each question from 0 to 5, a sufficient response requires an evaluation of at least 3 and total grade in proportion out of 30].
Evaluation criteria: correctness of the answer in terms of clarity and terms used, completeness of content, ability to summarize.
Teaching tools
In the classroom: video projector, flip chart
handout, items of interest.
