      Organisational online arrangements for the end of Q3 2019-2020 assessments (Covid-19)
      • Written exam (multiple choice, open questions)
      Description of the modifications to the Q3 2019-2020 online assessment procedures (Covid-19)
      The exam will take place over half a day during the session.

      The exam will be carried out using an online assessment platform according to a schedule defined by the faculty.

      The exam will consist of two parts and will be done in an open class (syllabus, notes, slides, ...).

      3. 1st part: Questionnaire of theory.

      The theory part includes a series of 10 multiple choice questions and 1 open question.
      The purpose of these questions is to assess the degree of assimilation and mastery of the subject (and not a simple restitution of relationships).

      The MCQ will be of the single choice question type.

      The open question of theory contains sub-points guiding the student you in terms of expectations. In your response, therefore, stay focused on these expectations.
      The open question is essentially based on the understanding of the subject and on the student's ability to provide an answer where the emphasis is on the assimilation of concepts, reasoning, logic, physical interpretation, common sense and justification of the relationships and physical behaviors presented.
      Serious preparation is therefore necessary, and the notes are there to draw certain relationships and concepts to support certain descriptions, certain principles, certain reasoning, certain analyzes and certain criticisms and / or guide the reflections and / or opinions given in the response. They are not intended to simply restore the material as it is.

      4. 2nd part: Questionnaire of exercise:

      The exercise part contains sub-questions guiding you in terms of expectations. Since these sub-questions are independent, they can be resolved in any order.

      The exercises directly appeal to the concepts of the course. The questions are presented in a form similar to that of the exercises given and resolved during the exercise and practical sessions.

      The evaluation is essentially based on the resolution methodology and the justifications by placing in the background the numerical values of a numerical calculation. The reasoning, the chain of relationships and the justification of the hypotheses used therefore constitute an essential part and must, as such, include all the diagrams, flowcharts, equations, graphics and / or drawings necessary for understanding the method of resolution.
      Serious preparation is therefore necessary, and the notes are there to draw certain relationships, support certain reasoning or guide a reflection on the resolution methodology. They are not intended to simply restore the material as it is.

      The overall weighting is as follows:
      40% for the first part of theory with 15 points for the MCQ and 25 points for the open question.
      60% for the 2nd part of the exercise.
