For each topic, the students are expected to carry out a self-evaluation close-ended test in the classroom (duration 5 minuts). After the completion, the test will be made available, to study purposes, by Moodle. In particular the test concern:
Test 1: Financial Mathematics defintions
Test 2 Private Investment Analysis
Test 3: Appraisal definition and principles
Test 4: Criteria and procedures for the evaluation of private goods and services
Test 5: Comparative evaluation of an agricultural real estate
Test 6: Methods of evaluation of environmental goods
Test 7: Multicriteria Analysis
The practice excercises concerns:
Financial calculus and economic-financial analysis of private investment project in agribusiness field (6 hour) Comparative evaluation of an agricultural real estate (6 hour)
Multicriteria analysis of environmental goods (6 hour)
Learning verification modality
The examination will be managed by through an oral test with the joint discussion of a brief individual written dissertation (Individual Report). The oral test concerns with an about thirty minutes discussion aimed at verifying the degree of knowledge and of understanding achieved by the student about the methodological contents of the Module. Moreover, the oral test aims at verifying: a) the student’s capability to identify the specific characteristics of the evaluation problems; b) the level of correctness in using the technical language specific of the Module.
The brief individual written dissertation consists on the elaboration of the evaluation of a private investment and it has to be carried out by the student by the systematic supervision of the Teacher. The dissertation is aimed at verifying the student degree of achievement of competences. The dissertation has to be produced during the Module lecturing period. The dissertation report (Individual report) has to be completed and submitted to the teacher by the end of the Module lecturing period.
The final evaluation of the student examination will be made by the average evaluations achieved in the oral tests and in the dissertation report: the oral test will be weighted by 5 credits and the dissertation report will be weighted by 1 credit (see the Programme section for details). In particular, the Individual Report will be evaluated with respect to the following criteria: a) completeness; b) accuracy; c) expertise; d) originality; e) clarity.
Extended program
The course has the objective to allow the students to achieve the knowledge of the basic methodological principles and instruments designed for the evaluation practice in the assessment of private goods in the context of animal production systems. The course also provides an introduction to the assessment of the public goods. The course enables the students with basic capabilities needed to the operational representation of the appraisal problems and to the technical, economic and appraising qualification of practical problems. The course also provides the basic knowledge to carry out the appraisal process and to elaborate and to write an appraisal report.
