Assessment

The assessment takes place as follows: 

 - an intermediate debate to be passed after the second half of the course, on a date agreed with the students;

 - a final oral exam, more suitable for assessing the student's preparation, their ability to recognize the works and their use of a proper wording

The evaluation is based on the following criteria: 

1) Attendance, punctuality and participation in lessons  30%

2) Intermediate debate  20% (insufficient exposition = below 18; good exposition = 18-24; excellent exposition and arguments = 24-30) 

3) Final oral exam (under 18 = insufficient; between 18 and 23 = sufficient; between 24-27 = good; 28-30 = excellent). This last test is decisive and can round up or down the vote, and confer honors as well
