Evaluation methods
Part A. Competency assessment
First session :
The evaluation covers:
1. Carrying out work in sub-groups (Case analysis, interview with a professional, oral presentation, active participation) [40% of the grade for the part « Competency assessment »]
2. Individual written exam with closed notebooks composed of an open question aiming to evaluate the knowledge and mastery of the different concepts, theoretical models and the application of these models [60% of the grade for the part « Competency assessment » ]
The final grade will therefore take into account the achievement and active participation in groups and preparation sessions.
Second session :
The evaluation covers:
1. Carrying out individual work (Case analysis, interview with a professional) that will be presented in an oral exam (with questions on the work) [40% of the grade for the part « Competency assessment »].
2.Individual written exam with closed notebooks composed of an open questions aiming to evaluate the knowledge and mastery of the different concepts, theoretical models and the application of these models [60% of the grade for the part « Competency assessment » ]
Part B. Competency development
For both sessions (January and September), the evaluation will be done through an individual written examination with closed booklets composed of open-ended questions aimed at evaluating the knowledge and mastery of the different concepts, theoretical models and the application of these models.
Final Grade
For psychology students, the final mark is the weighted average of the marks for Part A (“Competency assessment” part) and for Part B (“Competency development” part). In the overall final grade, part A is worth 10/20 and part B is worth 10/20.
All the modalities related to the certification evaluation are available on the course website on the Moodle platform
