Assessment methods and criteria
Mark, Oral exam

To successfully complete the course, students must score at least 70% on the credit test and pass the final exam (a 10-minute presentation). The final grade is then determined based on the grade for the oral presentation and the credit test. A maximum of two absences from class per semester is permitted. Combined study students are fully exempt from class attendance and prepare individually or through consultations arranged with the instructor with whom they are enrolled. They may also use interactive tests on the Moodle platform for practice. To pass the course, students must score at least 70% on the written test. To successfully pass the exam, these students must successfully deliver one 10-minute presentation from the list of presentation topics (in Moodle) and prepare an educational or game-based activity to accompany this presentation. The final exam grade is then determined based on the oral presentation grade and the credit test. The written test has three parts: listening, reading comprehension, and vocabulary. All sections are based on the materials in Moodle (Lessons and Vocabulary).
