Assessment methods
Assessment of Learning – Scienze Tecniche Dietetiche Applicate 1
The assessment for the course Scienze Tecniche Dietetiche Applicate 1 consists of a written multiple-choice test comprising 15 questions. Each correct answer awards 2 points, while incorrect or unanswered questions receive 0 points. The test lasts 30 minutes and must be completed without the aid of support materials (such as textbooks, notes, electronic devices, or other unauthorized tools).
During the course, practical exercises are scheduled, which must be submitted before the exam date. Their completion is evaluated and may contribute an additional bonus of 0 to 3 points, based on active participation and the quality of the submitted work. This bonus will be added to the result of the written test.
The written test is graded on a 30-point scale. Its result will be averaged with the grades obtained in the exams for “Biochemistry of Nutrition” and “Physiology of Nutrition” to determine the final grade of the Integrated Course, which is also expressed on a 30-point scale. All tests contribute proportionally to the calculation of the final average.
