Program

Learning Achievements (Dublin Descriptors)

Teaching Material
The teaching material prepared by the lecturer in addition to recommended textbooks (such as for instance slides, lecture notes, exercises, bibliography) and communications from the lecturer specific to the course can be found inside the Moodle platform › blended.uniurb.it
Supporting Activities
Teaching materials will be provided as e-texts on the University platform.
