ASSESSMENT METHODS

When requesting to start an internship, or to start attending a GP, the
student downloads a diary booklet on Aulaweb for each of the three periods of attendance.
The booklet must be filled out in all its parts by the teacher/Medical Manager/GP, who will issue, each for the part of their respective competence, a formal
certification of attendance (stamp and signature), together with the evaluation of the results
relating to the skills demonstrated, and expressing, if positive, the judgment of suitability.
The student will take care to note the days and times of attendance, describing the activities
carried out also with reflective ideas on what was done and observed. This diary will be countersigned
by the department tutor and the coordinating tutor teacher. The intern will declare that he has
received from the tutor an opinion in progress regarding the progress of the internship itself, by signing
in the appropriate space in the booklet.
The department tutor will compile the final or intermediate assessment (in the case of attendance
in two departments); at the end of the period the coordinating tutor will compile the
final assessment of suitability or unsuitability. The internship is passed only in the event of obtaining a suitability assessment issued by the
responsibles for each of the three periods.
In the event of a assessment of unsuitability, the student will have to repeat the relevant internship.
