Course Prerequisites

No prerequisite

Teaching Methods

Lectures and exercises also with the use of Power Point slides, which are then made available to students, who can download them in pdf format from the teaching page.

Assessment Methods

Verification of learning is carried out with a written exam with a mark expressed out of thirty.
The test aims to ascertain the level of knowledge of the topics indicated in the program and to verify that the student has acquired knowledge of the discipline, ability to interpret economic data and ability to show clear and reasoned. The written test consists of 3 open-ended questions on the topics covered in class, each of which is assigned a maximum grade of 10/30. The evaluation takes place by adding the scores accrued for the answers given to the three questions. The answer to each question involves the attribution of a score from 0 to 10, depending on whether the answer demonstrates an insufficient level of preparation (from 0 to 2 points), sufficient (from 3 to 4 points), good (from 5 to 6 points), very good (7 to 8 points), excellent (9 to 10 points). Honors are awarded if a score of 10 is awarded for each open-ended question. Failure to achieve the minimum score of 18/30 leads to failure to pass the exam.
Two partial written tests are scheduled during the semester of the lessons. Each test consists of 3 open-ended questions on the topics covered in class up to the date of the partial, each of which is assigned a maximum grade of 10/30 according to the methods specified above. To pass the exam it is necessary to pass both partials with a minimum grade of 18/30 each. The overall final grade is given by the arithmetic average of the votes of the two partial. Praise is recognized only if one already has praise in at least one of the two partial and 30 in the other.
