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

The type of classes The way of giving the final grade
Lecture On the basis of classes evaluation.
Class Written tests - C. For more than 90% right partial marks - grade 5,0; 80-90% grade 4+; 70-80% grade 4,0; 60-70% grade 3+; 50-60% grade 3,0; below 50% grade 2,0.
The final grade Final grade: K= 0.5wC+0.5wW Factor w equals to 1,0 or 0,9 or 0,8 for the first, second and third term of obtaining the course credit
Lecture Written examination test (E) including contents of 4 and 5 semesters
Class Written test - C. 90-100%points - grade 5,0; 80-90%points - grade 4,5; 70-80%points - grade 4,0; 60-70%points - grade 3,5; 50-60%points - grade 3,0; below 50%points - grade 2,0. The grade above 3.0 require comment/disscussion of the results obtained; depends also on current student activity .
Laboratory Laboratory course credit - L. Passed all practical tasks, final reports and theoretical tests. Written test. 90-100%points - grade 5,0; 80-90% points - grade 4,5; 70-80%points - grade 4,0; 60-70%points - grade 3,5; 50-60%points - grade 3,0; below 50%points - grade 2,0.
Project/Seminar Correct, written accomplishment of design example. Proving the ability of understanding of quantitative description of design problems - P.
The final grade Final grade: K= 0.5wC+0.5wW Factor w equals to 1,0 or 0,9 or 0,8 for the first, second and third term of obtaining the course credit
