Organisational adjustments related to the current health context

When encoding the educational commitments, the health situation remains uncertain for this academic year. Organizational changes are therefore possible during the year. If the health situation does not allow the organization of the written face-to-face examination, the written examination will be organized via ecampus. The questions will be open-ended or multiple choice or true / false, partial negative scoring could be activated as a function.

Recommended or required readings

The guide to "Bonnes Pratiques Pharmaceutiques Officinales" is a very useful support during the course.
It can be downloaded from MyULiège in the documents made available for the BPPO course.  
The slides will also be available to students.
In addition, Podcast type videos are posted on MyULiège. All videos must be viewed before the seminar session.

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.

A written exam will be carried out on the material given in the Podcast videos and also the material seen at the seminars. Depending on the evolution of the COVID-19 pandemic, the examination method could be modified.
