Assessment methods
The written test, in order to verify the achievement of the linguistic competence (level C1 of the CEFR), consists of two parts whose average results are evaluated on a 30/30 basis:
1) dictation about 15 lines (30 points)
2) grammar test (30 points). Duration: 60 minutes.
3) summary in Portuguese of one text in Italian (30 points). Duration: 60 minutes.
The oral examination, which takes place entirely in Portuguese, consists of two parts: the first consists of a conversational language interaction on a selection of literary texts of Lusophone authors of different historical periods and of different origins in order to verify the achievement of oral communication competence (level C1 of the CEFR, duration: about 15-20 minutes); the second part aims to verify the achievement of the metalinguistic competence on the contents of the teaching module (duration: 15-20 minutes).
The two parts of the oral examination are evaluated globally, resulting in a 30/30 basis evaluation that will average with the grade obtained in the written test, thus resulting in a total examination.
The written test is preliminary to the oral test, which should be done in a single sitting and within the same exam session in which the written test is passed.
Teaching methods
Lessons are held in Portuguese.
