We might have to move our classes online because of the COVID-19 pandemic. We might therefore transition to a mix of in-person, hybrid, and online classes.
Organisational adjustments related to the current health context
In case of code orange/red due to Covid, the grammar and practice sessions will be taught online. The practice sessions might be organized face-to-face provided the context allows this. All information will be send by mail if this should be the case.
When it comes to the exams and the assessment of the basic vocabulary, priority will be given to in-class assessment.
January 2021 exam:
- CODE ORANGE: Written exam (MCQs, sentences with gaps, or translations).
- CODE RED: Online oral exam based on a written document (MCQs, sentences with gaps, or translations).
See detailed document on eCampus.
