Ohjeita opiskelijalle osaamisen tasojen saavuttamiseksi

The final grade of the course is determined based on assessment of partial completions of the course. The weight of the compulsory final exam is 50 % and compulsory exercises and Moodle-assignment is 30 % of the total. The course can be passed by completing these compulsory parts of the course with the maximum grade of 3. Grades 4-5 require completion of additional assignments (weight of 20 %). Grades 1-2: Not all learning outcomes have been achieved. Insufficient command in some core content of the course. Grades 3-4: The learning outcomes have been achieved. Good command in core content and complementary knowledge of course content. Good or very good marks from all parts of the course. Grade 5: Some of the learning outcomes have been exceeded. Deep command in the core content and good command in complementary content of the course. Almost maximum performance in all parts of the course.
