The assesment will be continuous (100%) and based on the following sections:
-Continuous evaluation (= 100% of the final mark):
a) Partial test 1 (= 40%).
b) Partial test 2 (= 40%).
c) Active participation in class, comprehension activities and written and oral expression (= 20%).
-All Italian language skills will be assessed: grammar, oral and written comprehension, oral and written expression.
- Students may retake assessment activities they have failed provided that those they have actually performed account for a minimum of 2/3 of the subject’s final mark and that they have a weighted average mark of at least 3.5.
- It is required to pass each one of the course parts subjected to reassesment in order to get the final average mark.
- The student will receive a grade of Non-assessable if he/she has not submitted more than 30% of the assessment activities.
- The tasks most directly related to the teaching activity in class are excluded from the reevaluation.
- Re-assesment will consist of a synthesis test on the given evaluable item.
-When publishing final marks prior to recording them on students’ transcripts, the lecturer will provide written notification of a date and time for reviewing assessment activities.
- The responsibility for monitoring training and assessment activities lies exclusively with the student.
- In the event of a student committing any irregularity that may lead to a significant variation in the grade awarded to an assessment activity, the student will be given a zero for this activity, regardless of any disciplinary process that may take place. In the event of several irregularities in assessment activities of the same subject, the student will be given a zero as the final grade for this subject.
- In the event that tests or exams cannot be taken onsite, they will be adapted to an online format made available through the UAB’s virtual tools (original weighting will be maintained). Homework, activities and class participation will be carried out through forums, wikis and/or discussion on Teams, etc. Lecturers will ensure that students are able to access these virtual tools, or will offer them feasible alternatives.
