Exam schedules

Will be announced in October 2023

Time will be scheduled during the course for completing the larger final assignment.

Assessment methods and criteria

The final grade of the course is calculated by combining the converted assignment completion activity, project grade and exam score of the course.
Assignments + exam = final grade
1 + 4 = 5

You can pass the course with 1, by only completing over 70% of the assignments during the course.

You can pass the course by only doing the exam, but the maximum grade that can be received through the exam is 4.

Conversion tables for % to grade will be in the online learning environment

(EDIT: Grade is still counted from assignments and exam)

Math part

EDIT 8.1.2024.

Course math part will be held during period 3, i.e., between 8.1.2024-23.2.2024

Math part is evaluated based on the activity and know-how demonstrated on the lessons and by returned assignments by grade 0-5.

Math part points are divided as follows:
Lesson activity: max 12p
Assignments: max 18p

Math part point limits
35%: 1
50%: 2
65%: 3
80%: 4
90%: 5
- - - - - -- - -
The overall course grade will be calculated as a cu-weighted average of Programming part and Math parts.
