Type of Assessment
The course is composed by 45 hours of lessons.At the end of the first and of the second month, students will be able to do a written test pertaining to the developed arguments.Those who have consigned the test will receive after the correction, up to 10 points for the first test and up to 20 points for the second test. The sum of the points obtained will be an evaluation expressed in thirtieths which can be used for the examination in the ordinary session: this evaluation could be used instead of the evaluation of the written test.The attendance sign will be given only to those people who follow assiduously the course. The examination appeals (2 for session) are composed by a written and an oral (obligatory) test. The written test (not obligatory for those who have done the two intermediate tests) regards the resolution of four problems of the same type as those of the intermediate tests and will receives an evaluation expressed in thirtieths that will be communicated at every student (in a useful time).The student will be able to choose to face the oral test. If he accepts than the evaluation of the exam will be the arithmetic media of the two evaluations. Otherwise if the student prefers to abdicate the evaluation of the written test, will have to sustain it again in another occasion.
