Regolamento Esame
L'esame prevede una prova scritta. Essa consiste nella soluzione di problemi riguardanti gli argomenti affrontati e nella risposta a quesiti di carattere teorico/pratico, con domande a risposta multipla ed aperta, incluso un esercizio pratico. I quesiti applicativi verranno valutati in base alla correttezza del risultato ottenuto; i quesiti teorici verranno valutati in funzione della conoscenza delle fonti e dei contenuti essenziali delle teorie. La valutazione sarà espressa in trentesimi. Gli studenti passano l'esame con una valutazione finale non inferiore a 18.
o Non idoneo: significative carenze e/o imprecisioni nella conoscenza e comprensione degli argomenti; limitate capacità di analisi e sintesi, frequenti generalizzazioni.
o 18-20: conoscenza e comprensione degli argomenti appena sufficiente con possibili imperfezioni; Sufficienti capacità analitiche, di sintesi e di autonomia di giudizio.
o 21-23: Conoscenza e comprensione di argomenti di routine; Corretta capacità di analisi e sintesi con argomentazione logica coerente.
o 24-26: Discreta conoscenza e comprensione degli argomenti; buone capacità di analisi e di sintesi con argomentazioni espresse con rigore.
o 27-29: Conoscenza e comprensione completa degli argomenti; notevoli capacità analitiche e di sintesi. Buon giudizio indipendente.
