Each student will work on a personal project (either individually or in group), chosen from a list of suggeted titles presented by the teacher at the beginning of the course. This project will have three obligatory parts: research (tutorial); class presentation and written summary of the results and conclusions. This is an essential part of the Continuous Assessment: only students who attend classes regularly can take the Class presentation. |
