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

The student does not perform lab exercises, return the reports / assignments and exams will not reach the approved limit.

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

The student attends classes in varying degrees - in theory and laboratory exercises - restore the role of incomplete and late, to complete control by means of an acceptable level exams result T1-2.The teacher's control using survives assignments and reporting.

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

The student participates in theoretical classes and will be able to transfer theory to practice in their work. Requires the guidance, but survives in part indipendently.Exercises and reports: Restore and their content varies, but the control reaches a good level and exam results for H level. Take responsibility for occupational safety and conduct of labwork.

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

The student is actively involved in lessons, asking / participate in discussions and restore the written exercises / reports on time. Task responses are well structured, and the matter has been taken thoroughly. Student seeks the importance of factors that affect the analyzes to understand and be able to reflect on and develop their work. Examinations performed commendably.
Laboratory work is going well, is able to help other students.
