Assessment criteria, satisfactory (1-2) (course unit)

The student is able to identify the main principles, basic concepts and phenomena of energy production and use. The student is motivated enough to take responsibility for his/her own performance, know how to act in the group and give and receive feedback.

Assessment criteria, good (3-4) (course unit)

Students are familiar with the main principles, basic concepts and phenomena of energy production and use, and are able to justify and apply their learning. Students are clearly motivated, take responsibility for their own and team performance and are able to constructively give and receive feedback.

Assessment criteria, excellent (5) (course unit)

The student knows and understands widely the main principles, basic concepts and phenomena of energy production and use. The student is able not only to justify and apply his / her learning, but also to critically evaluate his / her own solutions. Students are highly motivated, committed to taking responsibility for their own and group performance, and are able to systematically use feedback as a tool for professional growth.

Assessment methods and criteria

Opintojakson arvosana muodostuu tentin ja harjoitustyön arvosanojen keskiarvosta. Kumpikin arvioidaan asteikolla 0-5. Harjoitustyö tehdään maksimissaan 3 opiskelijan ryhmissä ja ryhmän itsensä ilmoittamat opiskelijat saavat kaikki saman arvosanan. Tentti on yksilösuoritus.

Opintojakson tenttiin osallistumiseksi opiskelijan on tehtävä vaadittu määrä harjoitustehtäviä, jotka ovat Moodlen automaattiarvioitavia laskutehtäviä. Minimimäärä tehtäviä on 70 %:a. Tehtävien määrän täyttyminen lasketaan prosenttiosuutena tehtävistä saatavista pisteistä, ei konkreettisesti tehtävien lukumäärästä.
