Learning objectives
THE COURSE AIMS TO PROVIDE THE STUDENT WITH TOOLS FOR
DEVELOPING KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING OF FOOD
ASSESSMENT, THROUGH THE STUDY OF CONTAMINANTS,
DETERIORATION, CONSERVATION, SAFETY, FOOD SUSTAINABILITY (1ST
DESCRIPTOR - KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING SKILLS) AS PART OF
THE EUROPEAN DESCRIPTORS.
AT THE END OF THE COURSE, THE STUDENT MUST BE ABLE TO:
APPLYING THIS KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING IN ADDRESSING,
WITH A PROFESSIONAL APPROACH AND THROUGH THE DESIGN OF
ARGUMENTS, DIFFERENT QUESTIONS OF KNOWLEDGE OF THE
SUSTAINABILITY OF AGRI-FOOD PRODUCTIONS (2ND DESCRIPTOR -
APPLIED KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING SKILLS);
COLLECTING AND INTERPRETING ARTICLES ON THEIR OWN ,
INTERVENTION PROTOCOLS (3RD DESCRIPTOR - AUTONOMY OF
JUDGMENT);
COMMUNICATE INFORMATION, IDEAS, PROBLEMS AND SOLUTIONS OF
SUSTAINABILITY INTERVENTIONS OF AGRI-FOOD PRODUCTIONS IN
RELATION TO ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT (4TH DESCRIPTOR -
COMMUNICATION SKILLS);
DEVELOP ADDITIONAL LEARNING SKILLS NEEDED TO UNDERTAKE
SUBSEQUENT STUDIES WITH A HIGH DEGREE OF AUTONOMY IN THE
FIELD OF SUSTAINABILITY OF AGRI-FOOD PRODUCTIONS (5TH
DESCRIPTOR - ABILITY TO LEARN).

Bibliography
there is no single text specific to the course content
PDF and TEXT OF THE TEACHER are available
Teaching methods
The teaching will be carried out through face-to-face lessons with the
help of slides that will represent teaching material, made available on Elly
in pdf format for students. The lessons also include the discussion of
examples of the most recent real cases.
For this reason, the slides, which are gradually updated for each topic,
will be uploaded to Elly before each lesson and not all at the beginning of
the course.
The content of the lessons is not included in a single specific text, so
attendance at lessons is key to achieving the objectives of teaching
Assessment methods and criteria
The exam of the course must be carried out after passing the exam of the first module.
The learning verification method involves two phases. In the first phase, the student must present orally a topic of the course, following his research of deepening.
In the following phase and after the first phase, the student will be verified the level of learning of the expected results for all the contents offered during the lessons.
The verification method includes oral tests.
The aim of the questions is to measure the level of knowledge acquired,
the ability to communicate, the adequacy in the use of technical
language and the autonomy of judgment; According to the Italian university system, the evaluation will be
expressed in thirtieth (30/30). The minimum assessment threshold shall
be 18/30; The votes obtained below this threshold are not recorded and
the student is invited to reintroduce themselves to the next call.
A failure assessment is determined by: 1. Lack of knowledge of the
minimum contents of the course; 2. The inability to express themselves
adequately; 3. The lack of autonomous preparation; 4. The inability to
solve problems related to information retrieval and analysis; 5. The
inability to make judgements autonomously and to communicate the
contents relating to the course. A sufficient assessment (18-23/30) is
determined by an acceptable level of performance by the student of the
evaluation indicators listed above. The average scores (24-27/30) are
attributed to the student who proves that they have a more than
sufficient (24-25/30) or Good (26-27/30) level of the evaluation indicators
listed above. The highest scores (from 28/30 to 30/30 and Lode) are
awarded to students who demonstrate an excellent to excellent level
based on the rating indicators listed above.
