Evaluation
Students are graded on their participation based on:
-Their attendance in class.
-Their performance when playing games & making exercises.
In addition, we play the "Project Management" game which assesses the student's ability to initiate, plan, execute, control, and close a project. The game also evaluates whether or not students are able to apply risk management.
Last but not least, there is a written exam that assesses all aspects of the course. An example exam is available & is discussed in class.
