Teaching Methods
THE COURSE CONSISTS OF 40 HOURS OF LECTURES/TUTORIALS, WITH INSIGHTS THROUGH CASE STUDIES AND SEMINARS.
Verification of learning
THE EXAM IS AIMED AT EVALUATING KNOWLEDGE OF THE FUNDAMENTAL PRINCIPLES OF THE DISCIPLINE AND ITS EVOLUTION WITH THE TRANSFORMATIONS OF SOCIETY.
THE EXAM INCLUDES A WRITTEN TEST WHICH, IF A SUFFICIENT SCORE IS ACHIEVED TO PASS THE TEST (18/30), REPLACES THE ORAL TEST. THIS TEST CONSISTS IN THE CREATION OF AN ORIGINAL MULTIMEDIA PROJECT INTEGRATED WITH AN EXPLANATORY REPORT OF 10 (TEN) PAGES; THE PROJECT, BEING MULTIMEDIA, CAN HAVE DIFFERENT FORMATS (EDITORIAL, AUDIOVISUAL OR DIGITAL) AND MUST BE RELATED TO A COURSE TOPIC THAT FOCUSES ON COMMUNICATION PROCESSES AND ITS DERIVATIVES OF CONTEMPORARY SOCIETY (FAKE NEWS, CANCEL CULTURE, POLITICALLY CORRECT, ETC.) AND IN PARTICULAR TO WHAT IS DEFINED AS "INTERCULTURAL AND/OR INCLUSIVE COMMUNICATION".

IN THE EVALUATION OF THE TEST, EXPRESSED OUT OF 30, THE FOLLOWING FACTORS WILL BE TAKEN INTO ACCOUNT FOR THE COMPOSITION OF THE FINAL MARK:
- ACCURACY AND EXPOSITORY ABILITY OF THE ITALIAN LANGUAGE;
- APPROPRIATENESS AND APPLICATION OF KNOWLEDGE OF THE COURSE CONTENTS;
- MASTERY OF SOCIOLOGICAL LANGUAGE

THOSE WHO DO NOT OBTAIN A SCORE THAT ALLOWS THEM TO PASS THE EXAM (>= 18/30) WILL HAVE TO TAKE AN ORAL TEST IN WHICH THE SAME FACTORS CONSIDERED FOR THE WRITTEN TEST WILL BE TAKEN INTO ACCOUNT.

THE PROJECT MUST BE SENT BY E-MAIL TO THE PROFESSOR'S INSTITUTIONAL ADDRESS ONE WEEK BEFORE THE DATE OF THE EXAMINATION SESSION.
