| The assignment concerns the submission of a personal work on Moodle. The day before the exam, students receive an article in English on the recycling of metals or ceramics or polymers or composites which they will have to analyze on the basis of course notes in particular. They carry out a scientific review of the content of the article to be submitted on the day of the exam (5 p.m. at the latest) in a written report. The rating takes into account, in addition to critical analysis, the quality of the presentation of the report and scientific rigor in the explanations provided. 100% of the note. |
