| Student Performance Evaluation |
Students choose evaluation by one or both of the following:
In case that a student participates to both, the final grade is the maximum of the two grades. Evaluation criteria and all steps of the evaluation procedure are accessible to students through the platform “E-course” of the University of Ioannina. |
