- the written test is mandatory
- the maximum score is 27/30
- a project is optional
- the maximum score is 6/30
- the final score is the sum of the two scores, capped at 30/30
The written test is aimed at assessing the theoretical knowledge of the student, the project work is aimed at assessing the practical knowledge of the student.
Written test
- the written test is closed-book, with open-ended questions
- any attempt to cheat will result in the student immediately failing the exam
- the written test will take place in person on campus, with no exceptions
- students unable to attend an exam session will have to wait for the next one

Before the test
- students requiring special arrangements due to documented special needs or disabilities should inform the instructors well in advance of the exam
- it may not be possible to accommodate last-minute requests
- a list of potential questions that may appear in the written test is available on VLE and APICe
- the list is regularly updated throughout the course

- e.g., a theoretical analysis of a specific issue, the implementation of a specific technology, the development of a specific methodology, …
- yet, its main focus is to allow students to exhibit their technical skills and practical knowledge of the topics of the course
- it may be developed either by individuals or by groups
- groups may consist of up to 3 students
Before the project starts
- the topic has to be negotiated with the instructors in order to ensure
- its focus on Intelligent Agents, as well as
- its feasibility in a reasonable amount of time
- groups have to be declared on VLE by the students before starting the project work
- the groups shall be stable and unchanged during the project work
After the project ends
- where a group is involved, all its members present the project work together
- the evaluation of the project work focuses on both the outcome and the documentation presented
- both the software artefact and the project report are relevant in the evaluation of the project work
- the report should be written in English
- using the LaTeX template available at gitlab.disi.unibo.it/andrea.omicini/ia2627-reporttemplate
- project discussion typically lasts half an hour, and consists of
