Each video lesson is connected to an exercise which is divided into 6 questions (multiple-choice questions and open-ended questions) and may be useful to the student as a path of self-learning. The student is not required to send to the tutor the answers to these questions, but may require clarification and support. During the course module, the tutor will carry out two qualitative assessments of learning. The answers to these questions must be submitted by each student for the correction through the website. The students are encouraged to consult the collections of business cases (reported among the teaching materials) to verify and consolidate the theoretical contents learned, through reflection on the experience gained in the context of specific companies. The discussion of the exercises and of the case studies with the tutor may also take place via chat and forum. |
