The way of giving the component module grades and the final grade

The type of classes The way of giving the final grade
Lecture colloquium
Laboratory colloquium
The final grade Final grade K = 0,5wW+ 0,5wL, where W - lecture grade (lecture material colloquium/exam grade) L - average of laboratory colloquia grades w - factor of positive grade session number - 1 for first, 0.9 for second, 0.8 for third Positive grade - min 50% of maximum points; every 10% more - grade rises of 0.5 up to 5.0
