Assessment methods will consist of a written exam with closed questions and open questions with an optional oral test (at the request of either the student or the teacher). The closed questions have the objective of verifying the basic knowledges and terminology; open questions aim at verifying overall knowledge, and the ability to describe and connect different topics. There will also be closed questions and an open question on the book chosen by the students, also with a view to teaching planning.
The optional oral test will consist in the discussion of any critical issues in the written text and any need to verify and deepen the knowledge of the topics covered in class and in the laboratory activities or the book chosen by the students.
