| Description of the modifications to the Q3 2019-2020 online assessment procedures (Covid-19) |
| The exam will be a remote oral exam performed with the TEAMS software. Each student must therefore have a PC with microphone and camera and must be able to join a TEAMS meeting. The dates corresponding to the different groups of students will be available on the hyperplanning. Students will be evaluated individually every 20 minutes and the exam will last about 15 minutes for each student. The detailed schedule will be transmitted via the Moodle platform. The subjects addressed during the examination will be those seen by the students in face-to-face and distance learning, namely all the chapters of the theoretical course (Chapters I to VII) and the practical works actually followed by the students. During the examination, without using the lecture notes, there will be a first question related to Chapters I to V (P. Quinet), a second question related to Chapters VI and VII (P. Palmeri) and a third question concerning the practical works (F. Lo Bue), each question counts for 1/3 of the total rating. All students having not had the opportunity to follow the same practical works, the 3rd question will be adapted to each student according to the practical works actually followed. In addition, the evaluation of each student will take into account the particular circumstances of this academic year, in particular the fact that part of Chapters VI and VII could only be addressed in the context of distance learning. |
