Assessment methods and criteria
The discipline "Radiometry of ionizing radiation" is evaluated by a modular rating system. It consists of 2 modules. The results of students' educational activity are evaluated on a 100 - point scale. - semester assessment:
1. Two modular tests (maximum - 20x2 = 40 points).
2. Survey during lectures (maximum - 10 points).
3. Evaluation of homework (maximum - 10 points).
- final assessment in the form of an exam (maximum -40 points)
- Final assessment in the form of an exam
