Teaching Methods

The teaching is structured in 10 hours of frontal didactics, each lesson will be divided into two parts. A first part in which will be presented the topic of the lesson and in a second part in which will be proposed by the teacher of the exercises that allow to verify the practical application of the topics treated in a theoretical way.

Evaluation methods

Verification of learning:

The verification of the preparation of the students will be done by written examination composed of multiple answer questions and/or exercises that allow to verify the practical application of the subjects covered. The total points (30) will be divided on the basis of the questions present on the task and reported on the text in relation to each individual test question. There is no oral test.
The duration of the test is 30 minutes.
The teaching methodology and the methods of verification will be presented by the teacher at the beginning of the course.
