Frequency
Course attendance (watching video lectures, studying attached slides, completing e-tivities) is strongly recommended.
Exam mode
Students’ achievement of the expected learning outcomes is evaluated through a final oral examination, featuring open-ended questions that cover the course topics, conducted by a committee chaired by the professor.
This assessment is graded on a scale of thirty points.
The final grade is based on the oral examination (100 %),
A minimum grade of 18/30 is required to pass the examination, demonstrating sufficient knowledge of the course content.
To attain a score of 30/30 with distinction, students must demonstrate excellent knowledge of all course topics and the ability to make logical and coherent connections amongst them.
Lesson mode
The instructional approach utilized is e-learning. All activities are exclusively conducted online through the UnitelmaSapienza e-learning platform and in accordance with the UnitelmaSapienza e-learning model.
The course relies on the following teaching methodologies and tools:
• 30-minute asynchronous video lectures. Asynchronous direct teaching sessions designed to enable students to acquire knowledge, comprehension skills, and learning capabilities.
• 120-minutes synchronous and interactive video lectures summarizing the contents of each Module. Synchronous direct teaching sessions designed to enable students to acquire knowledge, comprehension skills, learning capabilities, and independent judgment.
• Independent study of the study material supported by slides accompanying each video lecture to enable students to acquire knowledge, comprehension skills, and learning capabilities.
And at least one of the following types of e-tivity:
• Formative self-assessment tests with instructional feedback for each video lecture: after viewing the video lecture, students verify their understanding of the topics by answering multiple-choice or true/false questions. Students receive immediate feedback on their performance, including correctness of their answers and, for incorrect responses, references to specific lecture slides for review. This Interactive teaching is designed to support student motivation throughout the learning process by facilitating ongoing self-monitoring and self-assessment of learning progress; through this activity, students acquire knowledge, comprehension skills, and learning capabilities.
• Question/answer forums for problem-solving. Upon completion of each module, students engage in an e-tivity where they respond to forum questions by applying their acquired knowledge and skills to solve problems. Students develop and present written legal solutions with supporting arguments, which are then assessed by the professor. This Interactive teaching is designed to support student motivation throughout the learning process; through this activity, students develop the ability to effectively apply knowledge and understanding, exercise independent judgment, and enhance their communication skills.
• Structured e-tivity with webinar and group work submission. An e-tivity conducted at the end of a module by students organized in groups and structured in three phases: 1) A webinar where students within the same group, guided by the professor, discuss and engage with course content and group project development. 2) A discussion forum where group members discuss and engage with course content, provide mutual support, and collaboratively develop their project. 3) Preparation and submission of written group work, which is subsequently evaluated by the professor. This Interactive teaching is designed to support student motivation throughout the learning process through the creation of collective, interactive, and collaborative learning environments; through this activity, students develop the ability to interact and work as a team, effectively apply knowledge and understanding, exercise independent judgment, and enhance their communication skills.
A qualified Tutor will monitor and support the students' learning process.
