Assessment activities:

The default evaluation system is continuous assessment. The final grade for the course will be calculated taking into account the following parameters.
- Attendance and participation: 20%
- Evaluation tests: 40%
- Culture and identity assignment: 20%
- Mobility assignment: 20%

In order to calculate the final average, a minimum grade of 4 out of 10 is required in each assessment activity.

Any activity not submitted will receive a grade of 0 and must be resubmitted in order to be included in the final average (except for class participation, which is not recoverable).

Specific criteria for the "No show" grade:
If the student does not take the final exam, the final grade will be recorded as Absent (NP), even if all other assignments have been submitted and passed.
Similarly, a grade of NP will also be assigned if the student fails to submit at least half of the required exercises and assessment activities in addition to the final exam.

Single Assessment:
For students who meet the criteria established by university regulations, the single assessment option will follow the evaluation system described below:

Final Exam – 70%
The final exam will account for 70% of the final grade and is resittable.
It will cover the full content of the course in a holistic way and will be theory-based and practice-oriented.

Assessment Activities – 30%
Students opting for single assessment must submit two individual assignments:
- Reflective diary on identity and culture. 15%
- Group assignment on mobility. 15%
Both activities are resittable.

Minimum requirements to pass:
In order to pass the course, students must obtain a minimum final grade of 5.0 out of 10.

Meetings for tutorials can be arranged by contacting the course instructors via email. These tutorials may be held either in person or online.
Emails will be answered within a maximum of 24 hours on working days.

All necessary instructions for following the course will be provided during the in-person sessions. In addition, a summary will be posted in the course forum to ensure that all information is accessible.
Communication and interaction with students will take place via Moodle and email.
For individual tutorials, students must schedule an appointment in advance by contacting the relevant instructor via email.

Students are strongly encouraged to participate actively in class discussions and activities, as this is essential for co-constructing knowledge in a meaningful way.

It is important to read the assigned materials in advance to prepare for each session and to deepen and complement the course content.

This course prioritizes critical thinking and reflective engagement over rote memorization. Students are expected to question, connect, and apply concepts rather than simply recall definitions. A spirit of curiosity and open dialogue will be key to making the most of this learning experience.
