Evaluation methods
The assessment of course LEUSL2107 consists of two parts: the activities organised during European Week (1st term) and the teaching given during the LEUSL2107 course (2nd term).
In order for their credits for this teaching unit to be validated, students must take both parts of the examination. An unjustified absence or a zero 'attendance-only' mark for one of the two parts will be classified as an 'unjustified absence' for the whole teaching unit.
Assessment of the European Week activities will account for 25% of the final mark. The mark obtained in the examination on the LEUSL2107 course teaching will account for 75% of the final mark. A mark obtained for one of the two parts of the teaching unit may be carried over from one session to the next during the same academic year, as long as it is no less than 2.5/5 for part 1 and 7.5/15 for part 2. Marks cannot be carried over from one academic year to the next.
