During each seminar, students are asked to present each article during 10-15 minutes. A group discussion on the article follows. Each topic block is evaluated independently with an exam.
Exams on each topic account for 70% of the final evaluation. The 30% left is evaluated depending on the quality of presentation, the clas participation and the assistance.
Each exam contains ten questions to be responded with a short answer. At least 70% of the exam has to be correct to pass it.
