Objectives
THE COURSE OBJECTIVE CONSISTS OF OFFERING STUDENTS, THROUGH A TRAINING APPROACH OF BOTH GENERAL THEORY AND ANALYSIS OF THE PRACTICAL CASE, THE KNOWLEDGE OF CONVERGENCES AND POSSIBILITIES BETWEEN DIFFERENT LEGAL SYSTEMS IN THE FIELD OF CAPACITY, FAMILY LAW INSTITUTIONS, CONTRACT, TRANSFER OF OWNERSHIP AND CIVIL LIABILITY. THE COURSE IS INTENDED TO ENSURE AN ADEQUATE KNOWLEDGE OF THE FUNCTIONING OF THE MENTIONED INSTITUTES IN A TRANSNATIONAL DIMENSION. EXPECTED LEARNING OUTCOMES: A) KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING ABILITY: ACQUISITION OF A BAGGAGE OF INDISPENSABLE KNOWLEDGE FOR THE UNDERSTANDING OF THE FUNDAMENTAL DYNAMICS OF NEGOTIATED ACTIVITIES IN A TRANSNATIONAL CONTEXT; B) ABILITY TO APPLY KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING: FULL CAPACITY OF ANALYSIS AND COMBINATION OF LEGAL RULES AND THE APPROPRIATE SETTING OF REASONING AND ARGUMENTATION LINES FOR A CORRECT VIEW OF THE LEGAL ISSUES UNDER STUDY, WITH AWARENESS OF TECHNICAL-LEGAL, CULTURAL, PRACTICAL AND VALUE-RELATED ASPECTS.

EACH TOPIC WILL BE ADDRESSED IN A COMPARATORY PERSPECTIVE, CONSTANTLY LOOKING FOR A COMPARISON WITH THE SOLUTIONS OFFERED BY OTHER LEGAL SYSTEMS, IN PRIMIS, BY THE ITALIAN LEGISLATION.
Teaching Methods
THE COURSE IS MAINLY CHARACTERIZED BY A CASE-BASED METHODOLOGICAL APPROACH, AIMED AT FOSTERING STUDENTS’ CRITICAL CAPABILITIES AND INDEPENDENT JUDGEMENT. THE ADMINISTRATION OF THE GENERAL CONCEPTS IS ACCOMPANIED BY PERIODIC ASSESSMENTS THAT ALLOW TO CONSTANTLY CHECK THE LEARNING LEVEL AND, WHERE APPROPRIATE, TO ADOPT THE NECESSARY CORRECTIVE MEASURES. IN ORDER TO ACHIEVE THESE OBJECTIVES, THE METHODOLOGICAL AND SYSTEMATIC CONTENT WILL BE PRIVILEGED OVER THE QUANTITY OF GIVEN NOTIONS. THE COURSE ALSO INCLUDES THE ORGANIZATION OF SEMINARS AND PRACTICE TESTS THAT ALLOW THE STUDENT TO APPLY THE LEARNED KNOWLEDGE AND TO VERIFY THEIR COMPETENCES.
Verification of learning
THE ACHIEVEMENT OF THE TEACHING OBJECTIVES IS VERIFIED WITH A FINAL EXAM WITH GRADES EXPRESSED IN THIRTIETHS. THE ASSESSMENT HAS THE OBJECTIVE OF VERIFYING THE LEVEL OF UNDERSTANDING AND KNOWLEDGE ACHIEVED BY THE STUDENT ON THE CONTENTS INDICATED IN THE PROGRAM, THE MASTERING OF THE METHODOLOGICAL INSTRUMENTS, AND THE ABILITY TO APPLY THE ACQUIRED KNOWLEDGE TO SOLVE THEORETICAL AND PRACTICAL PROBLEMS. THE EXAM IS ORAL. THE EVALUATION CRITERIA ARE: 1) ABILITY TO EXPRESS ONESELF CLEARLY AND WITH A SUITABLE USE OF LEGAL TERMINOLOGY; 2) CAPACITY OF SYSTEMATIC ARTICULATION OF LEGAL REASONING; 3) CAPACITY TO SELECT THE DATA, STORING THE MOST SIGNIFICANT PROFILES; 4) ABILITY TO DEVELOP A LEGAL REASONING ABLE TO BRING OUT DEDUCTIVE AND INDUCTIVE INFERENCES. THE MAXIMUM GRADE OF 30/30 IS GIVEN WHEN THE STUDENT SHOWS A FULL AND DEEP KNOWLEDGE OF THE THEORETICAL CONTENT, AS WELL AS AN EXCELLENT ABILITY TO CONNECT THE LEGISLATIVE REFERENCES TO THE STUDY CONTEXT. THE MERIT IS GIVEN WHEN THE STUDENT SHOWS A SIGNIFICANT MASTERY OF THE THEORETICAL AND OPERATIONAL CONTENT, PRESENTING THE TOPICS WITH A CORRECT USE OF LANGUAGE AND AUTONOMOUS PROCESSING ABILITY EVEN IN DIFFERENT CONTEXTS FROM THOSE PROPOSED BY THE PROFESSOR.
