Criteri di valutazione
Assignment of a single final assessment for the whole module based on A) a single-choice test with additional open questions and B) immanent coursework (see below).

B) Submission and assessment of immanent coursework for the two laboratories in the module (‘Observation and reflection of child behaviour with regard to inclusion (Lab.)’ and ‘Educational psychology and learning psychology for childhood and adolescence (Lab.)’) - Criteria for the assessment of these lab-related performances are: formal correctness, factual accuracy, own argumentation and reflection skills, theory-practice transfer performance. In accordance with the examination regulations of the faculty, the assessment for each individual course belonging to the module must also be positive for a positive overall assessment of the module performance. In the event of a negative assessment of the overall module, any positively assessed parts of the module will be credited the next time you take the module examination. Please note, however, that a negative assessment will also be included in the count of examination attempts in this case. According to the examination regulations, three attempts without passing will result in a block for three examination dates (see also Article 6, Paragraph 4 of the current examination regulations).
