Teaching Methods | |
---|---|
THE COURSE IS PERFORMED IN THE SECOND SEMESTER AND IS COMPOSED OF LECTURES (72 HOURS/8CFU), IN ITALIAN LANGUAGE. ADDITIONAL FORMS OF TEACHING ARE ADDED (THEMATIC INSIGHTS, SEMINARS AND PRACTICAL EXERCISES EVEN WITH LAW OPERATORS AND TEACHERS OF OTHER UNIVERSITIES), IN ITALIAN LANGUAGE. FREQUENCY TO THE COURSE AND THESE EDUCATIONAL ACTIVITIES IS NOT OBLIGATORY. HOWEVER IT IS EVIDENT THAT, AS NORMALLY, THE REAL FREQUENCY TO THE COURSE MAY MAKE THE PREPARATION OF THE EXAMINATION EASIER FOR THE STUDENT, CONSIDERING THAT IT ALLOWS TO ENRICH THE CONTENTS OF THE PREPARATION, TO INTERACT ACTIVELY WITH THE PROFESSOR AND TO CHECK, STEP BY STEP, THE PROGRESS OF THE LEARNING METHOD. |
Verification of learning | |
---|---|
LEARNING IS VERIFIED THROUGH A SINGLE ORAL EXAMINATION, WHICH CONSISTS IN AN INTERVIEW, IN ITALIAN LANGUAGE, HAVING THE CONTENT OF THE PROGRAM. THE EXAM IS INTENDED TO ESTABLISH THE ACHIEVEMENT OF THE EXPECTED LEARNINGS (KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING AS WELL AS APPLYING KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING) AS DESCRIBED ABOVE, IN THE SECTION “OBJECTIVES”. FOR ATTENDING STUDENTS, IT TAKES INTO ACCOUNT THE ACTIVE PARTICIPATION IN THE COURSE. SO THE EXAMINATION CONSISTS OF QUESTIONS ABOUT GENERAL AND THEORICAL ISSUES AND OF QUESTIONS ABOUT PRACTICAL LEGAL ISSUES AND, FOR ATTENDING STUDENTS, ABOUT THE ADDITIONAL THEMATIC AND PROBLEMATIC PROFILES PROCESSED DURING THE LESSONS. EVALUATION CRITERIA ARE THE SAME FOR BOTH ATTENDING AND NON-ATTENDING STUDENTS. THE EVALUATION OF THE EXAMINATION IS EXPRESSED IN THIRTIETHS AND THE EXAM IS EXCEEDED IF THE STUDENT OBTAINS A SCORE INCLUDED BETWEEN 18/30 AND 30/30. THE MINIMUM EVALUATION OF 18/30 IS OBTAINED WHEN THE STUDENT SHOWS AN ELEMENTARY DEGREE OF KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING OF THE ESSENTIAL CONTENTS OF THE STUDY PROGRAM AND A LIMITED UNDERSTANDING ABILITY OF ITS PRACTICAL AND APPLICATIVE IMPLICATIONS. THE MAXIMUM EVALUATION OF 30/30 IS OBTAINED WHEN THE STUDENT SHOWS AN EXTENDED AND DETAILED KNOWLEDGE AND A COMPLETE UNDERSTANDING OF THE PROGRAM ARGUMENTS, COMBINED WITH FULL CRITICAL ABILITY AND THE SKILLS TO SET AND SOLVE THE RELATED LEGAL QUESTIONS WITH CORRECT ARGUMENTATIVE AND LEGAL LANGUAGE TOOLS. THE LODE IS ASSIGNED WHEN THE STUDENT SHOWS OTHERWISE WIDER ABILITY OF SYSTEMATIC AND CRITICAL ASSESSMENT, EVEN BEYOND THE PARTICULAR STUDY CONTEXT. THE ACHIEVEMENT OF AN INTERMEDIATE SCORE (FROM 19/30 TO 29/30) DEPENDS ON THE DEGREE OF AMPLITUDE AND DEPTH OF THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE CONTENTS OF THE PROGRAM, AS WELL AS THE GRADE OF ABILITY IN APPLYING THE ACQUIRED KNOWLEDGE, THE CRITICAL UNDERSTANDING AND THE SKILL TO ARTICULATE A LEGAL REASONING IN A LINEAR WAY AND TO EXPRESS IT WITH CLARITY AND WITH APPROPRIATE LEGAL LANGUAGE. |
