Teaching methods
Didactic activities will be conducted by alternating oral oral lessons, for a duration of 77 hours, in active learning mode, for a duration of 20 hours.
During the lessons, focusing on the deeper understanding of some institutes, the dialogue dialogue with the classroom will be privileged. In the classroom, the guided study of some jurisprudence and elementary cases will also be conducted.
It is recommended that all students also take a look at the Elly platform of any uploaded footage by the Teacher for further explanations of certain parts of the program. Exercises will be organized for a closer look at some of the topics studied during the course.
Assessment methods and criteria
The final evaluation (vote on thirty) takes the form of an oral exam with at least three questions, with reference to the suggested texts and the parts indicated. The final examination aims at assessing whether the student has knowledge and understanding of the institutes dealt with during the lessons, as well as the ability to apply such knowledge to elementary concrete cases that are envisaged during the exam. The sufficient threshold is considered to be achieved when the student has demonstrated knowledge and understanding of the institutes of the course and is able to implement the correct interactions between the various parts of the program. If this is not achieved, the exam will be considered inadequate. Voting of the oral test is communicated immediately at the end of the test.
