Corso di laurea in Filosofia

The course is preparatory for the study of theoretical philosophy and is aimed at three-year degree students. It has two main objectives: to outline the discipline and to offer the essential theoretical tools to tackle twelve of the main concepts animating contemporary philosophical debate.

By means of the end-of-module tests, the student will be able to check his or her level of preparation for the final test and access the in-presence examination (for further details, see the section on 'how to test learning').
Learning outcomes will be verified by a written exam to be held at the University of Turin. During the exam, knowledge of the course content and of the books indicated in the bibliography will be verified.
The student must demonstrate

- that he/she knows how to select the different tools and concepts in order to show knowledge of the theoretical structures and contents of the course and of the books indicated for the exam;

- that he/she has acquired knowledge of the themes and concepts, the central philosophical positions dealt with and the authors who developed them.

The following books must be studied in order to take the exam in person:

1. Ferraris, M., Terrone, E. Filosofia teoretica, Il Mulino, Bologna (2017).

2. One of these two couple of books (a or b):

a) Ferraris, M. Sans Papier. Ontologia dell'attualità, Castelvecchi, Roma (2007) / Andina, T. Ontologia sociale. Transgenerazionalità, potere, giustizia. Carocci, Roma (2016).

b) Ferraris, M. Anima e I-Pad, Guanda, Parma (2011) / Andina, T. Filosofie dell'arte. Da Hegel a Danto. Carocci, Roma (2012).

The classes will be online, free and open, and can be accessed remotely and prior to enrollment. For the registration procedures and the showcase of the courses, visit the website www.start.unito.it 

There are three types of tests: end-of-module test, final test, and in-person examination.

END-OF-MODULE TEST
At the end of each module, you will find a test consisting of 10 questions each worth one point. These tests are designed as exercises that allow you to test your knowledge. You can practise as many times as you like and repeat the end-of-module tests; the automatic assessment system will keep track of your progress in the Assessment Book (Maple T.A. side panel).

FINAL TEST
The final test consists of 30 questions each worth one point and covering all the topics covered in the course. The test is repeatable and passing it is a prerequisite for taking the in-person exam. To pass the final test, you must reach a threshold of 24 correct questions out of 30. If passed, this test will allow you to obtain certification to take the in-presence exam.

IN-PERSON TEST
The examination will take place in the classroom, in presence, following the issuance of the previous certificate.
In order to take the in-person exam, you are required to study the texts indicated in the 'Program' section.
