Arviointimenetelmät ja arvioinnin perusteet

Giving course feedback is a mandatory part of the course
- Examination max 30 points/exam, passing level is 6p/exam
- Exercise sets, max 30 points, passing level is 6p.
- The sum of total points consist of exams and exercise sets (30p+30p = 60 p)
Grading:
- For the grade 1 the sum of the exam and exercise points has to be at least about 40% of the maximum points i.e 0.40*60 p = 24 p.
- The grade 5 could be achieved by 90% of maximum points i.e. 54 p
Participation to class lectures is highly recommended
Participation to exams and exercise review is compulsory
Absence in the review classes of exercise sets will affect the points ( see above).
During lectures there are randomly special tasks. By completeng these tasks it is possible to get additional points for the exercise sets.

In the middle of the course students will measure energy consumption of their electrical devices at home with special consumption meter. The results will be reported.
