Assessment methods and criteria

Below you will find information on the evaluation methods planned for in-person and remote exams as well as those planned for hybrid sessions. Depending on how the health crisis evolves, the chosen method will be communicated to you no later than one month before the start of the exam session.

Oral examination. The teacher reserves the possibility of replacing the oral exam by a written exam depending on the number of students. The assessment may also be linked to the submission of a written assignment.
Students may use codes or a collection of legal texts without annotation or personal comment, except for article-to article references. Blank Post-it notes are allowed. The use of fluorescent markers or underlining is permitted.
Among the main evaluation criteria are the student's ability to develop legal reasoning, explaining the arguments supporting it, articulating the arguments in a logical, rigorous and coherent manner.
