Modalità d'esame
Pre-Assessment: Course pre-requisites are clearly stated on the Module website. Formative Assessment: The formative assessment is performed via interaction between teacher and students during lectures. Students are involved in questioning and discussion, by means of open oral questions to the entire class. Summative Assessment: Written test followed by an optional oral exam. The oral exam can be required either by the student, to improve grades, or by the teacher, in presence of significant mistakes/misunderstandings in the written exam. An optional mid-term written test is also be provided, which is meant to cover the first part of the course, in order to help the students to split the workload. The written test is aimed at: (1) verification of theoretical competence, and in particular of knowledge and comprehension of Course contents (2) verification of skills in understanding and solving significant exercises, and in explaining the proposed solutions. This in order to verify the ability of application of techniques learnt during the Course, of analysis of problems and synthesis of suitable solutions, and of evaluation of alternative solutions.
Criteria of evaluation will be: the level of knowledge and practical ability; the property of use of the technical/mathematical language; the clarity and completeness of explanations. The written test (about 2 hours) consists in: (i) Short essays and open questions to cover point (1), 30-50% of total marks; (ii) Exercises, to cover point (2), 50-70% of total marks. All parts can result in negative marks if the answer is omitted or seriously flawed. The oral exam (max 1 hour) will occur within the same exam session of the written test and will typically cover the areas of the written answers that need clarification plus, possibly, additional subjects proposed by the teacher.
