POST-EVALUATION OF STUDENTS

  • Post-evaluation was carried out considering the improvement of results of students participating in the areas related to the project.  Apart from that, we carried out a similar questionnaire to the one students had completed before the project started, so that we could see the results.  The answers to this final questionnaire and the main findings are commented below:
