Teaching methods
Practical lessons: the student, assisted by tutors, will be gradually introduced to the execution of the diagnostic tests covered by the course, through attendance at the Orthoptic Center of the Ophthalmology Unit of Parma. Due to the pandemic, part of the internship activity could take place in telematic mode using Microsoft Teams. The teaching materials used will be made available on Elly.
Assessment methods and criteria
Oral exam and practical test: the student will be asked to perform the test object in the course of the simulation system and also on the patient. The correctness of execution will contribute to the final vote. If due to the pandemic it is necessary to adopt the remote mode for the exams, we will proceed as follows:
remote oral queries, through the Teams platform (http://selma.unipr.it/ guide).
