Evaluation methods
Philosophy :
Written and/or oral examination
Sociology :
Written exam, testing not only students' ability to reproduce information (closed questions as definitions or "fill-in-the-blank"), but also their understanding of the subject matter (open questions as comparison of authors or mobilization of a concept to shed light on a social phenomenon).
Visual Language :
Written exam : theory (reflexion) + analysis exercise
In case of a fail grade, you're invited to visit the web page of the course and check the details. A 10/20 or higher mark will automatically be transferred to a second or third exam session. It's thus not possible to re-sit the exam related to this part of the course.
Remote online exam if stricter social distancing measures are required due to Covid-19.
