Any change in the usual teaching activities (classes and office hours) will be reported in the AulaWeb page of the Course. On the AulaWeb page, all the information relating to the organization and carrying out of the course activities will be detailed.

For students with disabilities or with specific learning disorders (SLD):

Students with disabilities or SLD are reminded that in order to request adaptations for exams, they must first upload their certification on the University’s website at servizionline.unige.it in the “Students” section. The documentation will be verified by the University’s Services for the Inclusion of Students with Disabilities and SLD (https://rubrica.unige.it/strutture/struttura/100111).

Subsequently, well in advance (at least 10 days) of the exam date, an email must be sent to the professor with whom the exam will be taken, copying both the School’s Referent for the Inclusion of Students with Disabilities and SLD (laura.traverso@unige.it) and the above-mentioned Sector using one of the following addresses (disabili@unige.it; dsa@unige.it). The email must specify:

-the name of the course

- the date of the exam

- the student’s surname, name, and matriculation number

- the compensatory tools and dispensatory measures deemed functional and requested. 

The referent (Prof. Laura Traverso) will confirm to the professor that the applicant has the right to request adaptations for the exam and that such adaptations must be agreed upon with the professor. The professor will respond by communicating whether it is possible to use the requested adaptations.

Requests must be sent at least 10 days before the exam date in order to allow the professor to evaluate their content. In particular, if you intend to use concept maps for the exam (which must be much more concise than the maps used for study) if the sending does not respect the established times, there will not be the necessary technical time to make any changes, which could be requested by the professor.

For further information on the request for services and adaptations, consult the document: Linee guida per la richiesta di servizi, di strumenti compensativi e/o di misure dispensative e di ausili specifici 

it is recommended to contact the Professor in order to clarify and agree on aspects related to the organization of teaching, preparation, and the way the exam is conducted.
