Assessment criteria - fail (0) (Not in use, Look at the Assessment criteria above)

Exercises have been rejected. The exercises have not been returned or there are essential and significant deficiencies in the assignments.
The student does not recognize and does not know how to apply the design criteria of electrical networks.

Assessment criteria - satisfactory (1-2) (Not in use, Look at the Assessment criteria above)

The exercises have been returned as approved. The solutions do not contain significant errors. There may be some calculation errors in the solution, but they do not lead to essential error solutions (= correct order of magnitude). The factors and criteria mentioned in the assignment have been taken into account, but the reasoning is not perfect.
The student manages the design criteria of electrical networks helpfully.

Assessment criteria - good (3-4) (Not in use, Look at the Assessment criteria above)

The exercises have been returned as approved. The solutions have been carefully made and do not contain significant errors, there may be individual calculation errors, but they do not lead to essential error solutions. The factors and criteria mentioned in the assignment have been taken into account and the necessary justifications presented.
The student masters the design criteria of electrical networks and can also apply his knowledge in practice.

Assessment criteria - excellent (5) (Not in use, Look at the Assessment criteria above)

The exercises have been returned as approved. The solutions have been carefully made and do not contain significant errors, there may be individual calculation errors, but they do not lead to essential error solutions. The factors and criteria mentioned in the assignment have been taken into account and the reasons presented carefully.
The student masters the design criteria of electrical networks and knows how to apply his knowledge excellently also in practice.
