|---|---|
| EVALUATION OF THE ACHIEVEMENT OF THE SET OBJECTIVES WILL TAKE PLACE THROUGH THE PERFORMANCE OF AN EXAM AT THE END OF EACH MODULE, AS DETAILED BELOW. THE FINAL VOTE OBTAINED WILL BE GIVEN BY THE NUMERICAL AVERAGE OF THE SCORES OBTAINED IN THE TWO TESTS. MODULE 1: CHEMISTRY THE EXAM TEST RELATING TO MODULE 1 IS KEPT AT THE END OF THE MODULE AND IS AIMED AT ASSESSING THE STUDENT'S ABILITY TO HAVE LEARNED THE FUNDAMENTAL PRINCIPLES OF THE STRUCTURE OF THE MATTER, HAVING ACQUIRED THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A PHENOMENOLOGICAL APPROACH AND A MICROSCOPE STUDY APPROACH OWNERSHIP OF MATTER AND ITS TRANSFORMATIONS. THE EXAMINATION TEST WILL CONSIST OF A WRITTEN TEST WITH STECHIOMETRY QUESTIONS (REDOX REACTIONS, HOMOGENEOUS EQUILIBRIUM IN GAS PHASE, COLLIGATIVE PROPERTIES, ACID-BASE EQUILIBRIUM, EQUILIBRIUM OF SOLUBILITY, PROVAL OVAL CELLS AND TRALVENTAL VALVES). TO ACCESS THE ORAL EXAM, IT IS NECESSARY TO OBTAIN AN EVALUATION EQUAL TO AT LEAST 15/30. THE ORAL TEST WILL CONSIST OF AN INTERVIEW IN WHICH ANY GAPS FOUND IN THE WRITTEN TEST WILL BE FILLED AND DEEPEN THE THEORY ARGUMENTS. THE FINAL MARK OBTAINED, EXPRESSED IN THIRTIES WITH POSSIBLE PRAISE, WILL DEPEND ON THE MATURITY ACQUIRED ON THE CONTENTS OF THE COURSE AND WILL BE GIVEN BY THE NUMERICAL AVERAGE OF THE SCORES OBTAINED IN THE TWO TESTS. FOR THE PURPOSE OF THE PRAISE, THE QUALITY OF THE EXHIBITION WILL BE TAKEN INTO ACCOUNT, IN TERMS OF USE OF APPROPRIATE SCIENTIFIC LANGUAGE, AND THE PROVEN AUTONOMY OF JUDGMENT. MODULE 2: MATERIALS TECHNOLOGY THE EVALUATION OF THE ACHIEVEMENT OF THE SET OBJECTIVES WILL TAKE PLACE THROUGH AN INTERVIEW THAT WILL BE HELD AT THE END OF THE FORM. THE INTERVIEW WILL BE AIMED AT ASSESSING THE STUDENT'S ABILITY TO IDENTIFY AND DEFINE THE BEHAVIOR OF THE MATERIALS USED IN BUILDING, TO MAKE THE MOST APPROPRIATE CHOICES FOR THE FUNCTIONS REQUIRED TO THE MATERIALS. SIMPLE ANALYTICAL PROBLEMS WILL ALSO BE PROPOSED. THE EVALUATION AIMS TO VERIFY THE LEVEL OF LEARNING AND THE DEGREE OF ASSIMILATION OF THE SUBJECTS PRESENTED AND IS BASED ON THE LEVEL OF KNOWLEDGE ACQUIRED, ON THE CORRECTNESS OF EXPRESSION AND TERMINOLOGY, AND ON THE ABILITY TO CONNECT THE CONCEPTS. TO PASS THE INTERVIEW IT IS NECESSARY TO DEMONSTRATE AT LEAST THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE MAIN CHARACTERISTICS OF THE DIFFERENT MATERIALS STUDIED. THE EVALUATION WILL TAKE ACCOUNT OF HOW THE STUDENT WILL BE ABLE TO DEMONSTRATE COMPLETE AUTONOMY IN THE EVALUATION AND CHOICE OF MATERIALS IN RELATION TO SPECIFIC APPLICATIONS. LANGUAGE PROPERTY AND EXPOSURE SKILLS WILL BE ASSESSED TO ACHIEVE EXCELLENCE. MODULE 2: SAFETY AND ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION OF INDUSTRIAL PROCESSES. THE ACHIEVEMENT OF THE OBJECTIVES OF MODULE 2 IS CERTIFIED BY PASSING AN EXAM WITH EVALUATION IN THIRTIES. THE EXAM INCLUDES AN ORAL TEST. EVALUATION CRITERIA FOR THE MINIMUM THRESHOLD: THE STUDENT MUST PROVE THAT HE UNDERSTANDS THE DANGER CONNECTED TO AN INCIDENTAL SCENARIO DATA FOR A DEFINED CHEMICAL PROCESS, AND KNOWS HOW TO APPLY THE CORRECT MODELS FOR THE QUANTITATIVE ESTIMATION OF THE DAMAGE. EVALUATION CRITERIA FOR EXCELLENCE: EXTREME COMPETENCE OF THE TOPIC, EXCELLENT ABILITY OF EXPRESSION AND UNDERSTANDING OF THE METHODOLOGIES ILLUSTRATED. |
