      Organisational online arrangements for the end of Q3 2020-2021 assessments (Covid-19)
      • Written exam (multiple choice, open questions)
      Description of the modifications to the Q3 2020-2021 assessment procedures (Covid-19)
      The examination will be carried out in the form of a face-to-face written test. The theory-related subjects will take place in the morning (written exam (2h)) and practical work will take place in the afternoon (written exam 2h). The theory  counts for 60%  and the practicals count for 40% of the points of the final grade. The questions of theory will be questions of reflection whose answers will be proposed both in the form of multiple choice questions and propositions to be linked. The practical work exam will focus on the interpretation of optical and electron microscopy images. The optical microscopy images will be taken from the histological sections seen during the face-to-face and virtual practicals (virtual microscope available on the Moodle platform). The electron microscopy images will be of the same type as those seen and commented on on the moodle platform. Questions relating to the interpretation of these histological images will be in the form of short answers and will call on theoretical knowledge.

      Description of the modifications to the Q2 2020-2021 assessment procedures (Covid-19) online or face-to-face (according to assessment schedule)

      The examination will be a written distance test. The material relating to theory and practical work will not be separated but will be subject to a single examination. Students will be asked both on the theoretical subject on the basis of reflection questions, the answers of which will be offered both in MCQ form and in the form of short answers. Students will also have to interpret optical and electronic microscopy pictures equivalent to those seen during classroom and virtual labs. Questions relating to the interpretation of these histological images will be in the form of short answers.The test will be limited in time (strict duration of the time slot allocated to the examination: synchronous examination).
