Assignments - Report
Attendance at each seminar activity is compulsory except in cases of force majeure, as assessed by each seminar leader.
The various seminars will not be organised in a second session; only students who have participated in all activities but have not met the assessment requirements (not submitted or failed) will have the opportunity to attend a second session.
Assessment methods vary depending on the seminar. For information purposes, they may take the following forms: participation in practical activities, oral presentation, resource development, surprise report, etc. The specific methods will be presented at the first session of each seminar.
Each seminar leader will award a mark to the student based on the assessment specified at the beginning of the seminar. The overall mark for the EU will correspond to the average of the marks obtained in each seminar, provided that a minimum of 10/20 has been obtained in each seminar. If at least one mark is below 10/20, the student will receive a mark of 0/20 for the EU. However, they will only have to retake the assessments for the seminars in which they failed; the marks for the seminars in which they passed will be retained.
