Classification improvement
Students may only repeat ONE of the written tests in which they obtained a negative result. To do this, they must inform the teacher in a timely and written (email) manner, specifying which of the tests they wish to repeat, thus ensuring that their names appear on the list of the examination exams in the Sigarra.
Observations
Due to the health security measures imposed, lessons will now be given remotely from 12/03, the official date of the suspension of face-to-face lessons. In this context, videoconference sessions will be planned to supplement the activities to be carried out independently and to allow students to continue practicing oral skills.
The evaluation methods will remain unchanged with regard to the written test (Epoca normal & Epoca de Recurso)but the continuous evaluation without final exam will be replaced by a continuous evaluation WITH FINAL EXAM.
This will take place at the FLUP in compliance with the prevention of contamination measures. The oral test will take place by videoconference in the presence of two French teachers.
