Grades range from 0-20, where 20 is equivalent of 100% and 10 is the minimum passing grade.

Students are required to complete the following assignments:

  1. Lecture attendance and class participation (15% of final grade)

Students are expected to attend lectures and participate in discussions, focusing objectively on the topics. They are also encouraged to:

  • Ask questions, allowing discussions to evolve
  • Help classmates with their questions and activities, demonstrating preparedness by connecting assigned reading and activities to new knowledge
  • Present alternatives on superficial conclusions and issues that are misunderstood
  • Challenge incoherent or contradictory interventions
  • Presents ideas and results from relevant independent research
  • Engage in critical thinking, evaluating their opinions and assumptions, and appreciating feedback from classmates and teachers.

Class participation in discussion forums is only considered when the module is taking place. Feedback will not be available upon the module completion.

The activities deadline is also within the duration of each module. Failing to submit activities on time reflects negatively on the 15% of final grade.

  1. Pitch presentation (85% of final grade)

Based on the curriculum taught throughout the course, students will prepare a pitch presentation in groups.
