Assessment methods and criteria
The educational discipline "Medical radiophysics" is evaluated according to the modular rating system (2 substantive modules, lectures and independent work). The results of students' educational activities are evaluated on a 100-point scale. Assessment of control and independent work at the end of the modules — 30 points for each control work. The control work of students is evaluated in the range from 0 to 30 points (maximum 3 points for each of 10 tasks).
