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

The type of classes	The way of giving the final grade
Lecture	The mark is issued on the basis of the result of a written examination.
Laboratory	The assessment shall be based on an average of six colloquia. The scores for each test: 3 points. - dst, 3.5 points. - dst+, 4 points. - db, 4.5 points. - db+, 5 pt. - db
The final grade	The final grade in the module is the average of the grades from lectures and laboratory exercises: K=0.5*wA+0.5*wL (A-lectures, L-laboratories, w-factor taking into account the credit term: w=1.0 for the first term, w=0.9 for the second term, w=0.8 for the third term) such that K: 3.30 - dst (3.0), 3.31 - 3.75 - +dst (3.5), 3.76 - 4.25 - db (4.0), 4.26 - 4.70 - +db (4.5), 4.71 - bdb (5.0). The average can be drawn only if all the grades are positive.
