How is the time allocated to assessment calculated in ECTS terms?
It should be noted that for the student, assessment - in both quantitative and qualitative terms - means (or should mean) preparation time and in some cases time spent in the classroom, so a distinction should be made between:
- individual work outside the classroom
- classroom activity
When calculating the time spent on assessment, it should be related to the number of sessions which the student must attend, in order to:
- identify which of these sessions are closely related to the assessment,
- differentiate the time devoted to assessment and effective learning time
An example (with no real value):
| Time spent (weekly) | Time spent in the classroom | Preparation time outside the classroom |
|---|---|---|
| Week 1 | Initial assessment: 1 hour Continuing assessment: 0 Self-assessment: 30’ Etc. |
Optional (without calculation) 2 hours (reading of article) Optional (without calculation) Etc. |
| Week 2 | Dummy text | Dummy text |
| Week 3 | Dummy text | Dummy text |
| Week 11 | Dummy text | Dummy text |
| Week 12 | Final assessment: 2 hours | Exam preparation: 10h |
| Total ECTS hours: X % allocated to assessment: X |
