Representing an element of final evaluation is participation in interactive teaching activities: formative self-assessment test; problem solving question/answer forum; simulation webinar, discussion and solution of a court case with assignment delivery; summary webinar. The assessment is graded on a scale of thirty points, with the final grade reflecting both the students’ performance in the oral examination (80%) and their active and effective participation in the course e-tivities (20%).
