Assessment methods and criteria
Forms of student assessment: (max. Points 60 / min. Points 36) 1. Survey and problem solving (RN 1.1-1.5; 2.1-2.2; 4.1-4.2) - 20 points / 12 points; 2. Modular control work (2 MCR, 20 points max. Each) (PH 1.1-1.5; 2.1-2.2; 4.1-4.2) - 40 points / 24 points; - final assessment in the form of an exam A student is not allowed to take the exam if he / she received less than 36 points during the semester. If the student's grade on the exam is lower than the minimum threshold level (24 points), then exam scores are not added to the semester grade (considered zero), and the final the grade in the discipline is unsatisfactory. There are 3 blocks of tasks for the exam: Block 1 - theoretical issues; Block 2 - test tasks; Block 3 - calculation tasks
