Assessment methods and criteria

The exam is written and based on the deepened study of the texts. The written task comprises a certain number of open questions and closed questions so that students can prove their preparation and the teacher can base his marks on a representative sample of knowledge. I do not use a rigid and structured form of written exam, meaning that the closed questions sometimes are present and sometimes are not. The open questions are always present, generally 3. I generally give 10 points to each question, so that the sum is 30.
