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

The type of classes	The way of giving the final grade
Lecture	A written test including the content of the lectures. A mark depends on the score gained: 3.0 (50.0%-60.0%) MP ; 3.5 (60.1%-70.0%) MP; 4.0 (70.1%-80.0%) MP; 4,5 (80.1%-90.0%) MP; 5.0 (90.1%-100%) MP. MP denotes the full score.
Class	Passing 2 written tests, comprising the calculations and theoritical problems, realized a given term. The students, which failed any of the test take a written resit, comprising the items included in the failed tests. The final mark, obtained before an examining session is calculated on the basis of the results of the mentioned tests, including the resit test. The points are converted to the mark according to the method: 3.0 (50.0 %-60.0%) MP ; 3.5 (60.1%-70.0%) MP; 4.0 (70.1%-80.0%) MP; 4.5 (80.1%-90.0%) MP; 5.0 (90.1%-100%) MP. MP denotes a full score. A mark, calculated according to this metod can be modified based on the analysis of the activity and the progress of the student in the course of the classes. This mark is related to the coeffiitient w=1,0 corresponding to the first sit of the exam.. The final mark for the exercises, obtained in a resit session,depends on the number of points scored at the resit test: 3.0 (50.0 %-60.0%) MP ; 3.5 (60.1%-70.0%) MP; 4.0 (70.1%-80.0%) MP; 4.5 (80.1%-90.0%) MP; 5.0 (90.1%-100%) MP. MP denotes the full score. This mark is multiplied by w=0,9 for the calculation of the final module score. In every instance the mark is calculated acording to the formula given in WKJK.
Laboratory	The necessary condition for receiving a credit for laboratory is obtaining at least a pass mark in every exercise included in the schedule. The mark in a single unit corresponds to the mark obtained for a written/oral test. The necessary condition to pass the unit is also correct performance of the laboratory work and correct/individual preparation of a report. The mark in laboratory is an arithmetic mean of the marks obtained for every exercise included in the schedule. The final mark in laboratory is rounded according to WKJK.
The final grade	The final grade (OK) is calculated as follows: OK = 0.34 OW + 0.33 OC + 0.33 OL
