| Description of the modifications to the Q3 2019-2020 online assessment procedures (Covid-19) |
| The assessment will take the form of a distance oral exam via the Teams platform. The theory is the one defined previously (see: email sent via moodle on 15-3-2020). The exam matter relates to the chapters of the course from page 10 to page 91 of the syllabus. The illustrations relating to these chapters are available on the Moodle platform (Powerpoints presentation of the course). The questions will be made live from a face to face exchange via the Teams platform without preparation time. Make sure that you have a computer with a webcam and a microphone and a room where you can isolate yourself for the duration of the exam (20 to 30 min. max). If you have any problems with the computer equipment necessary for this type of examination, report it to me and also to the IT department of UMons as soon as possible. We will see how we can best solve your problem. |
