Assessment methods and criteria

Opintojakson (5 op) kokonaisarvosana määräytyy painotettuna keskiarvona opintojakson osuuksien laajuuksien mukaan. Kaikista osuuksista on saatava hyväksytty arvosana.

OHJELMOINTI (2 op): Ohjelmointiosuus arvioidaan asteikolla 0-5 määräaikaan palautettujen harjoitustehtävien perusteella. Määräajan jälkeen tehdyt palautukset arvioidaan numerolla 1. Palautusten määrä ja arvosanan muodostuminen: 30 % = 1, 50 % = 2, 70 % = 3, 90 % = 4, 100 % = 5.

TIETOTEKNISET TYÖKALUT (2 op): Arvioidaan harjoitustehtävien perusteella asteikolla 0-5. Tarkemmat arvioinnin perusteet on esitelty Moodlessa.

TEKNINEN RAPORTOINTI (1 op): Arvioidaan testien ja harjoitustehtävien perusteella asteikolla 0-5. Hyväksytty suoritus sisältää tiedonhankinnan materiaalin opiskelemisen hyväksytysti.

Assessment scale
