| Teaching Methods | |
|---|---|
| THE COURSE INCLUDES INTERACTIVE FRONTAL LESSONS WITH COMPULSORY ATTENDANCE OF AT LEAST 75% OF THE TOTAL LESSONS. ATTENDANCE WILL BE ASCERTAINED THROUGH THE EASYBADGE AUTOMATIC DETECTION SYSTEM. |
| Verification of learning | |
|---|---|
| ATTAINMENT OF THE TEACHING OBJECTIVES IS CERTIFIED BY PASSING AN ORAL EXAMINATION ON THE HUMAN PHYSIOLOGY PART AND THE ELEMENTS OF ANATOMY PART, TO BE HELD AT THE SAME TIME, WITH A GRADE IN THIRTIETHS, CONSISTING OF AN INTERVIEW WITH QUESTIONS AND DISCUSSION ON THE TOPICS OF THE PROGRAMME, AIMED AT VERIFYING UNDERSTANDING OF HUMAN ANATOMY AND PHYSIOLOGICAL MECHANISMS, AS WELL AS THE ABILITY TO EXPOUND CONCEPTS USING APPROPRIATE SCIENTIFIC LANGUAGE. THE FINAL GRADE WILL BE DERIVED FROM THE AVERAGE OF THE GRADES OF THE TWO PARTS. DURING THE COURSE, THE STUDENT WILL HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO TAKE 3 IN ITINERE TESTS (NOT COMPULSORY) LASTING 1 HOUR EACH, COMPRISING MULTIPLE-CHOICE AND OPEN-ENDED QUESTIONS, THE DATES OF WHICH WILL BE AGREED WITH THE STUDENT. SUCCESSFUL COMPLETION OF THE THREE IN-PROGRESS TESTS (WITH A MINIMUM MARK FOR EACH TEST OF 18/30) EXEMPTS THE STUDENT FROM THE ORAL TEST. THE EXEMPTION IS VALID ONLY FOR THE SESSION FOLLOWING THE TEACHING SESSION. |
