Assessment and permitted materials

Please register on the e-learning platform Moodle. There you will receive all the necessary materials and information about the lecture. In addition to the lecture slides, which will also be made available via the e-learning platform, reading the assigned materials is the most important preparation for the exam.

The lecture will be assessed by a written exam. The exam consists of answering a total of 20 questions including single-choice, multiple-choice, “true or false” (correction of statements), and open/miscellaneous questions (e.g., match dates and events, authors and works; complete sentences; fill in gaps, recognize short texts).

Minimum requirements and assessment criteria

With the help of the lectures and the accompanying slides, participants should be able to understand the most important concepts, historical events, as well as literary, artistic, and cultural developments in the Chinese-speaking world since the 20th century.

The exam is considered passed if at least 60 out of 100 points are achieved.

Grading scale:
100-90 points: Grade 1
89-80 points: Grade 2
79-70 points: Grade 3
69-60 points: Grade 4
Less than 60 points: Grade 5
