(*)Scoring system: The assessment strategy follows an adaptive learning design including motivational strategies.
Range of assessment methods:
There are different stages of assessment in the course: individual presentation with a prior preparation, group assignments and team presentation in concept of a sales pitch and individual presentations without a prior notice to demonstrate the ambivalent topics.

- LO2: Individual task + Course participation assessment
- LO3: Group task + Peer Feedback / Course participation assessment
- LO3: Individual task + Peer Feedback / Course participation assessment

At the end of the course, the students will be able to differentiate the various presentation and moderation methods applied in various settings. The objectivity of presentation depends on demonstrating an enthusiasm in understanding and analysing the audience, delivering the adequate speech and achieving the expected content delivery of the speech. Using necessary and appropriate information and delivering an ad-hoc speech is exercised throughout the course.
