Assessment methods and criteria
The discipline "Modern Codes and Nuclear Data" is evaluated by a modular rating system. It consists of 4 modules. The results of students' educational activity are evaluated on a 100 - point scale. semester assessment:
1. Two modular tests (maximum - 10 + 20 = 30 points).
2. Surveys and tests during lectures (maximum - 10 points).
3. Evaluation of laboratory work (maximum - 30 points).
- final assessment in the form of a test (maximum -30 points)
