| Teaching Methods | |
|---|---|
| TEACHING INCLUDES LECTURES AND CLASSROOM TUTORIALS. THE TUTORIALS DEAL WITH THE MAIN TOPICS OF THE COURSE WITH PARTICULAR ATTENTION TO THE APPLICATIONS. |
| Verification of learning | |
|---|---|
THE EVALUATION OF THE ACHIEVEMENT OF THE PRE-ESTABLISHED OBJECTIVES WILL TAKE PLACE BY WAY OF AN ORAL EXAM WHICH NORMALLY IS COMPRISED OF THREE QUESTIONS ON THEORETICAL, EXPERIMENTAL AND PRACTICAL ISSUES ADDRESSED IN THE TEACHING ACTIVITIES. THIS ORAL EXAM IS AIMED AT VERIFYING - ON THE BASIS OF THE PERTINENCE AND COMPLETENESS OF THE ANSWERS GIVEN - THE LEVEL OF DEEPENING OF KNOWLEDGE, THE ABILITY TO LINK THE ARGUMENTS, THE QUALITIES OF CLARITY AND CRITICAL SYNTHESIS OF THE STUDENT. FOR THE PURPOSES OF THE LAUDE ACKNOWLEDGEMENT, THE FULL SATISFACTION OF ALL THE ABOVE REQUIREMENTS WILL BE TAKEN INTO ACCOUNT. |
