Methods of Provision
Teaching Methods The Laboratory is structured in 48 hours of frontal teaching, divided into 2-hour lessons based on the academic calendar. Frontal teaching is made up of theoretical lessons. Attendance is optional, recommended, and the final exam will be the same for attending and non-attending students.
Evaluation methods Verification of learning:
The assessment of the students' preparation will take place with a written exam consisting of 9 multiple choice questions. The student will have to answer 5 out of 9 questions correctly to qualify (wrong answers do not penalize). There is no oral exam. The duration of the written test is 1 hour. The topics examined will reflect those covered during the teaching and present in the program.
