Examination topics

All texts and materials used in the lecture and new grammatical and linguistic structures learned during the course are the basis for assessment.

Assessment and permitted materials

Written exam
If it is possible, the written exam will also take place at the university. However, if the situation with the COVID-19 virus worsens again, then a digital exam will be considered - more information forthcoming in due course. All support tools will be allowed but I recommend using a compact dictionary (e.g. "Foclóir Póca") as the internet gives too many results for a beginner.

Minimum requirements and assessment criteria

For the exam, a simple coherent text must be translated into English or German. There may also be grammatical exercises with gaps or similar. Unusual grammatical situations in the sentences / text must be documented with extra notes. This is particularly important where the construction does not exist or is not readily identifiable in German or English (e.g. habitual, copula, where a preposition takes over the function of a verb in German or English etc.). In order to pass, I must be able to clearly recognise that the student has understood most of the text and the grammatical or linguistically interesting constructions used in it. The text will be 50-60 words in length and will consist of 10 blocks marked with 10 points each, 100 points in total. The time allotted for the exam is 45 minutes. The marking scheme is as follows: 50-62p = pass 63-75p = satisfactory 76-87 = good 88-100 = excellent
