Ohjeita opiskelijalle osaamisen tasojen saavuttamiseksi

The total mark is determined based on a final exam, laboratory works, and the student¿s activity in exercise classes. The relative weights of the theory part (exam and exercise classes) and laboratory works are 90% and 10%, respectively. Laboratory reports, written by each pair of students after the experiments, are reviewed by the instructors. The reports are required to meet the criteria of scientific reports. Results and he anaysis methods used, as well the structure, language, and style of the reports are assessed. Reaching the lowest acceptable level in the assessment is required, however no numerical grades will be given. Instructions how to achieve the learning outcomes of the laboratory assignments can be found from the Moodle page of the course.
