The research product will be a written project (project work) which will be subjected to periodic review by the teacher before the final draft. Before the examination, the final text must be delivered to the teacher; it will be evaluated based on criteria of originality, applied techniques, clarity and consistency of the content. Finally, the oral discussion of the delivered text will evaluate the correctness of the exposition and the argumentative capacity of the student. The evaluation will therefore be based on the research product and its exposure, according to an evaluation graduated as per current legislation.
