Arviointikriteerit, tyydyttävä (1-2) (OJ)

Overall the achieved competence is sufficient but narrow. Student shows throughout the course that is familiar with the basic concepts and phenomena related to the subjects discussed during the course: main classes of hydrocarbons and functional compounds, main classes of (organic) pollutants and environmental processes.

Can solve model exercises correctly. Can perform volumetric, instrumental and simple microbiological analyses of soil samples or various water samples under supervision and has basic skills in reporting the results of the analysis. Overall knows the courses of action but cannot justify his/her choices. Completion of the tasks is based on routine and pre-learned performance.

Student can give and receive feedback, and considers and assesses things from his/her viewpoint. Student can work in a group and recognizes his/her interaction skills. Student takes responsibility for his/her own work

Arviointikriteerit, hyvä (3-4) (OJ)

Overall the achieved competence is structural. Student shows throughout the course that is fluent in the basic concepts and phenomena related to the subjects discussed during the course: main classes of hydrocarbons and functional compounds, main classes of (organic) pollutants and environmental processes.

Can solve model excercises and new exercises correctly, based on given models is able to write chemical reactions of the organic compounds correctly. Can perform volumetric, instrumental and simple microbiological analyses of soil samples or various water samples independently. The reporting of the laboratory results shows that the student attends to apply the theoretical knowledge in explaining the results. Overall student is able to select appropriate course of action from diverse options, can make plans and apply his/her knowledge when solving problems and can justify the choices.

Student can give and receive constructive feedback and considers and assesses things both from his/her and the close community's viewpoint. Cooperates and is ready to develop his/her interaction skills. Student recognizes and follows the important courses of action in the field. Student takes responsibility and commits to the group activities in addition to his/her own work.
