Evaluatiemethode

Evaluation in the first session In the form of a puzzle, each piece represents a unit of learning achievement. The group receives it each time they have passed/acquired a unit. This principle allows students to repeat several times, to improve by integrating the teacher's remarks. The final grade for the group is the % of completion of the puzzle. At least two final productions are expected: a written report of maximum 15 pages and an activity to be determined, aiming at the dissemination of the work to a non-academic audience. The report is due on the first day of the examination session at the latest. Evaluation in the second session The group should improve the written report.
