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

The type of classes The way of giving the final grade
Lecture Knowledge of the lecture content is enforced in the form of written tests on laboratory classes
Laboratory Proper execution of the exercises and elaboration of the results obtained - laboratory reports. Positive mark of each of 4 written tests (wL). The grade calculated on the basis of the number of points scored (50%-59% - 3,0; 60%-69% - 3,5; 70%-79% - 4,0; 80%-89% - 4,5; 90%-100% - 5,0). Positive mark of the oral presentation on a given topic (wP), w - factor related to the credit term (1.0 - a first time, 0.9 - a second time, 0.8 - third time).
The final grade Final mark (K) is calculated in accordance with the formula: K = 0,8(avL )+ 0,2P, where avL - average mark of 4 written tests (wL).
