Teaching Methods
LECTURES
LABORATORY
Verification of learning
WRITTEN TESTS AND ORAL EXAM WHERE THE ACHIEVEMENT OF LEARNING OBJECTIVES WIL BE ASSESSED. THE WRITTEN TEST IS PROPEDEUTICAL TO THE ORAL TEST AND CONSISTS IN THE ADMINISTRATION OF A QUESTIONNAIRE WITH QUESTIONS OF MULTIPLE ANSWER AND OPEN RESPONSE
BLOCKED. THE QUESTIONNAIRE, FOR A TOTAL OF 30 QUESTIONS, HAS A DURATION OF 90 MINUTES. THE QUESTIONS WILL HAVE AS A SUBJECT TO THE COURSE AND ARE INTENDED TO CHECK THE ABILITY TO UNDERSTAND THE PROPOSED PROBLEMS AND THE ABILITY TO COMMUNICATE WRITTENLY.
THE ORAL TEST CONSISTS IN A DISCUSSION OF THE DURATION NOT EXCEEDING ABOUT 30 MINUTES, FINALIZED TO ASSERT:
THE LEVEL OF KNOWLEDGE OF THEORETICAL CONTENT
THE LEVEL OF COMPETENCE REACHED IN THE EXPOSURE: LANGUAGE PROPERTIES, LOGIC - DEDUCTIVE AND SYNTHESIS CAPACITY.
