Assessment methods and criteria

Opintojakso arvioidaan asteikolla 0-5.
Kurssin voi suorittaa kahdella tavalla, joista voi valita toisen tai molemmat, jolloin parempi tulos jää voimaan:

1. Arvosana muodostuu viikkokokeista, harjoitustöistä ja kotitehtävistä saatavien pisteiden summasta.
Viikkokokeet 2 x 6 p = 12 p
Harjoitustyöt 2 x 6 p = 12 p
Kotitehtävät 6 p (15% = 1p, 30% = 2p, ...., 90%=6 p)
Loppukoe 30 p

2. Loppukoe: 2 x 30 p

Alustavat pisterajat ovat:

Arvosana 1: 20-18 p
Arvosana 2: 29-36 p
Arvosana 3: 37-44 p
Arvosana 4: 45-52 p
Arvosana 5: 53-60 p
