Evaluation: French 3 (advanced) (B-KUL-H74467)
Explanation
Written exam (50% of the points): on the chapters studied in the course and on the "vocabulary of the presentations". In multiple-choice questions no correction for guessing is applied.
Continuous assessment (50% of the points): the student's level is continuously assessed while actively participating in the lectures and while presenting a company.
Bonus/malus system: the booklet "Communiquer sans fautes" (self-study) is questioned by means of a test on 40 points, for which the student must obtain a minimum of 25/40. Each point above that limit will earn him a bonus of 0.1 point on his final score; each point below that limit will cost him a malus of 0.1 point on his final score.
