Modalità d'esame
The assessment consists of a written exam and a group project. The written exam includes verification questions, and the project requires the submission of a written report. A positive evaluation of the project is valid for all three regular exam sessions. Projects must be submitted before the final exam at the end of the semester; otherwise, the exam cannot be registered.

Criteri di valutazione
The final grade is composed of 60% from the written exam and 40% from exercises or project work. Both the written exam and the project will be assessed based on the clarity of answers, mastery of language, critical thinking skills, ability to summarize, evaluate, and establish connections between topics, and technical competence. The project will also be evaluated on the ability to work effectively in a team, creativity, and development skills.
